UFC:157

Saturday night was the first UFC womens bantum weight  fight on pay per view. Not only was the first female fight in the UFC, but these women were the main event of the evening. The media coverage for this event was crazy. This fight has gotten the attention of HBO, Sports Center, and many other media outlets that don't usually cover any UFC events. I have to say I enjoyed watching the UFC with my boyfriend before this fight but now that there is women in the UFC I'm hooked. There is something about women fighting that I can relate to unlike I could with mens fighting. Not to mention the woman that holds the only belt in women's UFC. With her fist round arm bar submissions Ronda Rousey gives one hell of an exciting fight. Some people may differ on their opinion of a good fight. Some guys love to see a brutal 5 round slug fest with blood everywhere, me not so much. My favorite thing about MMA is the technical aspect of it and the art form it is . It takes not only athletic ability but also precise technique to perform arm bars like Ronda Rousey.  Saturday night was one hell of a fight, even though it only lasted about 1 round I was one the edge of my seat.  There was more action in one round of this fight than there was in all three rounds of the fight right before this between Lyoto Machida and Dan Henderson. All in all I am very excited to see where not only the UFC can go but all women's MMA in general. It will be interesting to see if any woman can stop Rousey in the ring.
