Damn, what does a corner do there - figher says 'I'm done'. I can't really blame the corner for pushing her forward, but at the same time, they need to preserve her to fight another day.

if a fighter doesnt want to fight they shouldnt be in the cage. all they did was get her hurt for no reason other than their pride.

she really just needs to fight cyborg. thats her best shot to make alot of money and if she wins, which I doubt, she is instantly the goat woman fighter.

Well....I guess we know the MMA storylines for at least the next week
- what to do with Dern
- what's next for Nunes
- the controversy over Pennington saying she's done

I'm interested to see what Dana White has to say about all of this.

Machida and Oleinik picked up “Performance of the Night” awards, and Gastelum and Souza took home “Fight of the Night” honors.

Each got a $50k bonus.

Oleinik has 12 Ezekiel choke finishes in his career.

Nunes is not marketable for the UFC. They need someone else to step up and beat her.

No one is marketable at 135 right now.

I think this is the right answer. When the fight was going on, it was easy to get caught up in the moment. But that's precisely what the corner is not supposed to do. She could not have made it more plain to them. She stood up and away from the camera and told them she was done. They said no. She again said she was done. Their entire job and preparation as a corner team is for moments just like that.

There's no doubt they meant well. But that was not acceptable. They shouldn't be banned from the sport, but she should part ways with them.
