In all fairness I hate the tired old bullshite overdone line of "glad I didn't pay for this shite" but if anytime that has been relevant it was last night.

I think the rantards that came in to troll don't realize that this was not supposed to be the main event.



There is no doubt she is great for the sport. I said that she couldn't carry a ppv and I stand by that. As a co-main event there isn't as much of a problem. Let Rousey fight Jessica Eye in the main event of a card and see what the ppv numbers look like. Rousey is too dominant to carry a ppv. I love the UFC but I am really glad I didn't pay $60 to watch Rousey armbar someone in 14 seconds, again.

A friend of mine said if the main event is lost they at least could cut the paper-view to 29.95 instead of making it an all out free card. That would make a little sense.
The UFC has already said they would never do this. They've shown that they would rather cancel a card altogether than introduce tiered pricing for cards.

Ridiculous. Mike Tyson agrees. Dominant champions are what makes PPVs.

Let Anderson Silva rematch Patrick Cote and see what the numbers are. They aren't above 500k I can guarantee you that.

Rousey vs. Cyborg will do 500k. They will promote the shite out of that fight. White has said that Rousey get's as much or more pub then Brock Lesnar got. The media are fawning over a woman badass and she's it. She's a dominant badass with the mean mug but extremely sexy at the same time.

She has it all.
1st round dominant finishes
Sex appeal

And plays a great heel.
