According to MMAJunkie:
?UFC plans to release as many as 100 fighters in 2013, a byproduct of the recent start of the women's division as well as taking on the contracts of fighters from Strikeforce following the closing of that promotion."
Okay, making room for the Strikeforce guys I understand, but didn't Dana just say a month ago that the women could be here (I'm paraphrasing) 'for 1 fight or 1 year'.
Considering they've signed a bunch of women, plus these cuts, sounds to me like they've made the commitment already. Now that UFC has gone "full retard" by going all-in with the ladies, I almost feel bad for Rousey. Talk about even more pressure on her to win Saturday...
It's like Title 9 all over again.
IP - It's like Title 9 all over again.
Ohhhhhhhh fuck!!! END.THREAD.
They've added 4 women ...
I think this has a lot more to do with Strikeforce than the women. Good Lord.
UFC is cutting 100 guys to make room for 100 females?
