I've got Amanda winning. Besides the claims, she's backed up everything she had in front of her. You guys are so sure that she can't drop guys, but I was sure she couldn't drop cyborg. Let's see what happens.
No one here thinks that she CAN'T drop guys. I'm SURE she can, especially once you start considering some guys who would be smaller than her. I'm about the same size as her in shape (I'm 5'8" but not super brawny or thick, I'm assuming she's 5'6" and probably thicker than me). I wouldn't let her hit me square. She's a pro athlete and deserves every bit of respect that she gets.
The problem with the idea of her dropping guys is that 100% I can drop her too. Even though we're the same size, the difference is I'm a testosterone factory and I guarantee you that I'm faster and more aggressive than she is.
If she starts dropping guys, do you think the guys are going to continue going easy on her? Nope. It's going to be in their mind that she's dangerous and they're going to fight back accordingly. At some point she gets dropped. Which brings us to her coach, Dan Lambert. Do you think it's ok for him to let her get dropped leading up to the fight. Nope. No way. If things get heated enough for someone to get dropped, it's his job to slow things down FOR HER SAKE.
Unless she's sparring day-one type guys who don't know what the fuck they're doing. But does that sound intelligent either?
Nope.
The obvious thing to conclude is that the "dropping guys" nonsense is just marketing talk. They're hoping that one of the major news outlets picks up the retarded chatter and runs with it. But that's all it is. Retarded fantasy chatter.
Edit: all due respect to the champ. I'm a huge Amanda Nunes fan and I can't wait to see her fight. She's one of the 3-4 women that give me hope for WMMA.
I get what you are saying, but it's pretty biased. Sure, some people could get up and drop her, it is training. But to act like she is just some pushover that couldn't have a chance unless the sparring partners are joking is also ridiculous.
Let's see how the fight goes and I know she is a better striker than the version of Rousey that "dropped guys" so using that as an example as others had is crazy. If someone she finished brutally had hype, why is it weird for her to have the same hype? Ronda got exposed, let's see if Megan can do that. The thread was about who would win a title fight, not degrading women.
I think we both see Amanda's skills the same way. I'm just one of those guys who can't let it go when someone looks you right in the eye and says something completely retarded like "Amanda dropped guys in training". I'm sure she could. But it never actually happened. The Ronda thing was even more retarded. It's the same kind of dumbfuckery as the Jon Jones purse snatcher story. I think I get angry about shit like that because I don't want to believe my world is actually filled with that many gullible/retarded people.

Amanda definitely wins by stoppage but I think it's a toss up whether it'll be a TKO or sub. She's going to bring a pressure that Megan's never felt before and in at least one of those firestorms, Megan's going down. Does it end with punches, or does Amanda climb on top and choke her out? Either way, this is going to be the fight where Megan realizes that she fights in a non-competitive division, but that there's also a shark in the water.
Im putting 100 on Megan just in case. But no part of me thinks she beats Amanda.
I think Megan comes in with a game plan of using her size advantage to try to keep Amanda away from her. It may work for a little while, but Amanda eventually adjusts and gets in and drops her. It could go by submission...but I see it more likely as a TKO stoppage by Amanda.

I did the same because of the odds. Not really confident in my bet though

I put 20 cause why not but, I should have bought 2 pizzas instead of the 1 and the 20 dollar losing bet.
