Either the women are too stubborn to listen to their coaches or their coaches are taking it wayyy too easy on them. I hardly ever see improvement in any area of a female fighter. What they fight like in their debut is what they fight like in their retirement fight.

Holly Holm:
Karate blitz into high kick. Naked high kick. Jump off back leg and push kick the knee. Bites down on mouthpiece and starts shouting as she attacks EVERY time.
Why hasn't her coach ever disciplined her in not doing a blitz as her only way of punching? Why does she still throw endless naked kicks? Why does a boxing champ not box?

Ronda:

Lol ok I don't need to explain this one

PVZ:
Pointless bouncing followed by blitz. Sits wayyyy out of range until she engages. Then when she is in the pocket she throws body kicks for some reason. Has no striking defense. Under arm body lock followed by hip toss. Clinch and repeatedly try to throw knees to the head she can't reach.
Again why aren't her coaches breaking down her patterns. Why aren't they having her sit in the pocket with someone like Faber and learn how to dirty box without clinching. Maybe learn to to do a double or single leg takedown at somepoint in your PRO career
 
The skill gap is quite difficult to overcome, not to mention almost none of them have ko power. Atleast at low level heavyweights there are a lot of ko's. At low level wmma its just bad mma for 3 rounds.

Agreed. However, it is obvious that there's a huge difference between skill level in WMMA and MMA. WMMA fans argue that the skill gap will be narrowed as WMMA grows. I tend to agree with this, but I think there is a limit to how much that shrinks. Men are significantly better athletes than women. I think we all know this.

WMMA has achieved its own notoriety in some ways, with the major example being the Rousey phenomenon, but to a lesser extent Gina Carano, Tate, and others. But in general, outside of putting WMMA cards on mostly male cards, I don't think WMMA would be very big at all. I think all WMMA cards or promotions generally wouldn't sell nearly as well.

I've grown to like WMMA, but some of the key criticisms aimed at it seem obviously true to me.
 
Seriously? on national women's day you create this thread?

<3>
 
Who are the virgins make up your minds im so confused

Nunes went from being wrestlefucked by someone who is now a 125er to shrugging off Tate's TDs to KO her, WMMA is more than 3 people, two of which came in with fairly long careers in a specific style
 
They need more sex appeal to sell fights.


Gina Carano would've been a megastar under UFC.
 
Embarrassing thread by some clueless goober who couldn't recognize improved technique if it fucked him in the earhole.

Well if it was you fucking my ear how could I even feel it?
Why are you assuming my gender?
 
Why what you think matters 0%. Because you're just one person on an MMA forum. Nobody cares what you dislike.
You should really concentrate on things you DO like. It's much better living in a positive world than being a Negative Nelly all the time.
 
Why I hate Brussel Sprouts...about as important of a subject as this one.

You wouldn't feel it, since Bethe Correia would have just KTFO'd you with ease via her brand new cartwheel kick.

And I assume what I want, because I'm a man's man.

You had me at naked kicks.
