ufc fans already bitch about not enough big names on the fight cards even though there are more ufc now then before. Add women's divisions is going to make it worse.

Make strikeforce a home for women would be the best

Great piece! I am 100% sold on the argument.

JkdSam -  Women have the right to fight if they want, but with that said, I have no interest in watching a woman mess up another woman's face, and I won't watch it.

Agreed. No interest in watching women fight.

There are not enough women to actually have competitive divisions IMO. Women in the UFC is about 10 yrs away at least. They need more numbers of talented women.

Besides the few world class athletes that are out there most of the mid level womens MMA looks like back yard brawls I was in at 10 yrs old.

No.

Please no. Phone Post

birdo - Start with just one division and build on that. Plus you never know what kind of revenues/new fan bases/advertising are out there

I'll go out on a limb here and say that having women in the UFC isn't going to bring in any new MMA fans.

No thanks Phone Post

only closeted bromos say no.

No thanks.

Really.. please.. NO!

Lets just water the sport that used to be "NHB" down even more. Why not add a childrens division too? While were at it, lets co promote with Diseny and have UFC ON ICE!

Let them fight in Strikeforce.

The reason why you're wrong savage is because your a missing-link-easque knuckledragger who thinks Dana is doing something great by keeping women out of competition because you like women to be sex objects and not athletes.

I mean the point about SF's big draws with women on the card is enough to make you look like dick loving fool, but that would be trying to have a rational argument with someone who is still butthurt that women can vote.

Kirik - Great piece! I am 100% sold on the argument.

Lets flesh out the exsiting male divisions with a 195, 175, 165, etc. weight classes before we go about creating new weight divisions for females.

Let me point out that if you keep a women's division from developing because it lacks talent, then ti will forever lack talent because there is no space available for the game to even take place much less improve.

JD: what about Tate's broken arm is watering down NHB? It's not even NHB anymore anyway; that ship sailed a long time ago.

One half hot champion (who is a 1 trick pony remiscent of early early MMA) and all of a sudden IT'S TIME
