Also, this was under the new scoring criteria rules.
The judges must not have got the memo because they used the old way of scoring a fight.
Gartlin - because she's a lesbian, or because you don't find her attractive or both. I can. Not the lesbian part, but I know for a fact that I don't root for her because I don't find her cute and she hits the cute girls really hard in the face. I don't like that. But wedon’t need to act like she’s a terrible person.
The lesbian thing doesn’t bother me it’s her face it just makes me mad
Like a few people have already said, that whole weigh in stuff just made her look like a dick.
What a typical response to assume if someone doesnt like a member of a “protected class” the only possible reason is because they are a member of that class.
Cant be because she has a horrible personality and pulls out of fights with BS excuses, must be because of bigotry.
Wrong.
I dont like the way she carries herself as a champion. Miesha Tate was twice the champion Nunes will ever be.
Humble in victory gracious in defeat.
Sage Northcock -She actually didn’t win the belt from Ronda… I know that’s hard for you to bekieve but she absolutely destroyed Meisha to beome the champ and followed it up by crushing Ronda to retain her belt… one fight where she didn’t look her best doesn’t mean she’s a shit champ. There have been several champs that have had terrible title defenses. Like Anderson VS. Maia and Leites.Gartlin -Sage Northcock -What are these two fights in which she fought safe since winning the title? The fight last night and what other one?Humphrey -Sage Northcock - I don't really like her anymore for two reasons:
She got the belt and now pulls out of fights.
She got the belt and now fights "safe."
Both are signs of a LAME champion and are oftentimes why the champion is as marketable/must-see as a prelim can.
wait, isn’t it just one fight she pulled out of and just had the fight? that’s a pretty weak statement for one thing.
Although, i could be wrong, maybe it’s more? i don’t remember. However, I think the truth is like Valentina said, i think her weight cut went bad and she used an excuse.
I couldn’t care less what people do not in the context of fighting. Just like I don’t give a shit that Oscar De La Hoya dresses in fucking fishnets.
Lesibian, ethnicity, none of that matters. it’s what they do in the context of fighting that matters to me.
Yeah shithead and in the TWO times shes been scheduled to fight after winning the belt she has both 1) pulled out and 2) fought a new safe style that did NOT get her to a belt.
My point stands. If anything its worse that she displayed both traits yet before even having multiple defenses. Its a sign of things to come as it always is.
Ill re-type it because I think its coming out wrong
She has been scheduled to fight TWICE since the easy Ronda fight and pulled out the first time against Valentina… then fought last night and admitted afterwards to using a safer style to ensure she could last the distance and "prove a point."
1) because she's butch and they are disgusting animals
2) because she's loves her Brazilian excuses
You got me
NEWSFLASH - I don't care one way or the other about her. She was exciting in the Ronda fight, but she knew Ronda had nothing on the feet and went headhunting, successfully.With Valentina she knew she had a striker to deal with, played it insanely safe and was boring as hell.
Valentina should have won that fight 48-47 at least. 49-46 is how I saw it. But I understand it’s hard to win a belt on decision unless it’s total domination - I’m talking GSP style domination - if it doesn’t end with a finish.
I don’t mind her, just not a fan is all. I’ve been a fan of Valentina for awhile. Was hoping to see that Russian dance again.
that’s how you had it. thank god you aren’t a judge. because even fight metrics gave Amanda 4 out of 5 rounds.
Delusion!
and I have to laugh at the idiots claiming amanda is 'safe fighter or 'point fighter' when someone just dispelled that myth above showing she's got 15 wins and 13 of them are finishes.
Who in the male divisions has that? is there one?
lol point fighter. newbie fans are so cute.
I just think she is annoying. I love the way she fights, except for when she fights Valentina. They both made that fight shitty though.
I don’t like her because she seems cunty.
Wooper -Did the same thing at the end of the fight, I have terrible sinusitis, it sucks and is terrible to deal with but I've still competed and deployed and delt with that shit! She should have kept it real and said "I had a bad weight cut and can't beat Valentina unless I'm 100%" after she beat Rhonda she gained alot of weight and did not look ready imo. She got almost two months extra to prepare because of it and she is bragging about being able to go 5 rounds! Bitch you better be able to go the distance with two camps for one fight! She's still a beast but not really a big fan. And what's up with all these over emotional Brazilian Fighters after every win shit is really annoying already..I stopped liking Amanda Nunes after she had that face-off with Shevchenko where she punched her and then tried to play it off like she got touched first. That kind of behavior seems scummy to me and it's a turn-off. I'm not into fighters who act that way.
BooZe -Exactly this, plus I just hate listening to her talkWooper -Did the same thing at the end of the fight, I have terrible sinusitis, it sucks and is terrible to deal with but I've still competed and deployed and delt with that shit!

Both of your points are disproven by her first title defense moran. I know that was before you followed the sport, but at least do your homework.
I admit, I don’t like Nunes.
What do I win?
Had no idea she was a lesbian, because I don't care about her lmao.
i dont like nunes
I don't like her much but admit that her pose when she gets the belt at the end of the fight is epic.
I don’t like Nunes because of her personality and a lot of the nonsense that comes out of her mouth. Not because she munches muff.
I love her personality and what she says. I don’t understand why some don’t?
Maybe it is because people don’t understand the culture of the Salvador, Bahia people from Brazil. JDS is from there and everybody seems to like him. So I think it is because she is a woman and people in western culture don’t understand the whole Bahia thing.
