You got it.
Watching girls fight is simply boring.

2013 saw an explosion in popularity for women's MMA. Once considered nothing more than a niche in MMA, the women's divisions have quickly become some of the most popular and exciting.
Women's MMA certainly has its detractors, though, and one of them is former Strikeforce and Pride heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko.
Emelianenko said the following in a Russian interview with CTV.BY, per MMA Mania: "I respect the girls who defend the country's honor at the Olympics, in wrestling, boxing. But I do not support female MMA. A woman must take care of the house, raise her children and be feminine. There a lot of different sports which help her in that, but MMA is not one of them."
Expect UFC women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey to provide a response should word of this get back to her. If you'll recall, she agreed with her rival Miesha Tate in calling Georges St-Pierre "ignorant" for his thoughts on women's MMA.
UFC president Dana White also infamously said he'd never allow women to fight in the Octagon.

A lot people are turned off by it, I'm just one of them. Funny watching how people act....she can whip you....hahahahaha!!!!!!!!! How damn stupid is that?

You’ll cram anything down your throat if Dana tells you too.
He even knows it’s a shite arse side show to have bitch fights. What did he say about bitch fights before he decided it could be profitable? The same shite he said about Kimbo.
Dude fricking tells you for years that something sucks. He wants no part of it, and the UFC is above such nonsense.
Then he packages it, sells it, and you’re buying.
Bitch fights are the fricking worst. You’re a sucker.
You are even more stupid than the other guy. Ive enjoyed womens mma fights long before the ufc started putting them on.
So Dana white gave the fans what they wanted? And made some money along the way? And has grown the sport? Yeah pretty dumb move according to you guys.

I didn’t say it was a dumb move.
He told you it was trash. He still sold it to you, and you’ve lapped it up. He’s definitely not the dumb one in this scenario

So dana white sold me a product that i enjoyed long before he decided to promote it in his organization. Not only that, but the quality of the product has went up tremendously because of the increased pay and increased noteriety and he and his organization has benefitted from it to the tune of a woman being his 2nd biggest star ever… sounds like a win win and the only dumb one here is you… and the other doofus.

Debatable. Lesnar, Kimbo, pimping every shite arse loser from TUF, and the bitch fights drove me away from UFC years ago. If it’s better now to you, then congrats. I don’t enjoy bitch fights, and I definitely find it funny as frick that Dana told you it was trash, but now has you convinced that these clown shows actually qualify as “main events”.
I never cared for women’s boxing either.

Whatever man, your loss. The quality of fighter in the UFC is the highest its ever been and thats with a full roster and fights nearly every weekend of the year. Also, 3 of the current champs were on TUF btw.

You're in your 70s and obese Larry. Shut the frick up. Rousey would literally kill you if she wanted. One bad break in people your age and they're done.

oh no not this again
...And it gets more ridiculous every phucking year this $hit comes up.
And then they drop words like grappling and leverage as if these things would stop MOST average men with a little hair on their a$$ from pushing Rousey's phuck in.
Lord I hope this isn't some byproduct of a half century of emasculation where all they have left is boasting about getting beat up by a petite woman and assuming that women somehow find that sexy.
