Hi EmmaMay, hope you’ve been well.
Brock Lesner is NOT FUCKIN GOOD!!!! Oh my LORD JESUS!!!!
people underestimated the accuracy of cyborgs punches(they werent wild) ..I studied the fight and she had gina all “zeroed in” and poor gina kept throwing long punches even though cyborg was already in her face….gina did well preventing herself from being wrestled down easily though…the couture camp should have had her watch the gsp vs alves fight …she could have used her weight and height to suppress her opponent, and in effect wear her out (on the ground)..bad coaching/or student
I don’t know, man. They follow me everywhere I go. In real life, too!
whats with the luchadores in the background!!
The fight was way less good than I’d hoped.
Ha its true this fight was almost exactly like Frank Mir and Brock Lesnar
honey you can knock me out anytime you want!
I like how you lifted the pink ninjas up!!
I’m very excited about this fight, though I won’t get to see it… My pick is Carano because of her MT record (I don’t know how many MT fighters Cyborg has fought) and because of her time with Xtreme Couture (I feel she can stop TDs and dictate where the fight is).
It could wind up looking like one of my favorite fights: Fisher/Stout 2. But with women.
I kind of think carano is going to get this one, she’s more well rounded towards the striking side, but it’s a fight anything can happen.
Nice analysis Emma. If Cyborg made a proper weight cut today I think her size advantage will play a huge role in this fight, not to mention her aggression and willing to slug it out attitude. I got her by TKO at the begining of the 2nd round.
Good stuff
Lol @ Fedor would win anytime Take your head outta his jock please..
im pumped fo thiss actually however both fighters have mist wheight before…if they want mma fighting to be takken more seriously then there gonna havtha buckle down on that tyoe of stuff and train like poreffessional athletes…but newayz thease r sum tuff gurls and im exspecting a gud fight by both fighterz….hopefully thease gurlz get the respect they desearve becuzz they desearve it,, but i wonna see a fight!!
Win Cyborg in the second round. It is obvious.
Lesnar vs. Fedor analogy is not entirely correct because Fedor would win anytime while Corano would struggle.
It is going to be a stand up fight.
If Cyborg grabs Corano the way she did with her husband during the open training then Gina is doomed.
This is the most important fight for Corano so far. If she makes it all the way to the last bell it would not matter if Cyborg wins.
Very good analysis. Terrific intro.
Cyborg isn’t going to show up at weight. One of her fights was a disgrace. She out weighed the asian girl by like 15 lbs, re-god-damn-diculous.
I don’t mind at all! Link away.
And, yes, you heard correctly. I was trying to get a hold of myself after a laughing fit, heh.
ummm… did you say “dead puppies, dead puppies” at 3:00?
awesome analysis! 🙂 i’ve been working on my gina vs cyborg video but it has discernibly less facts than yours. do you mind if i link to yours?
excellent commentary.

nice vid
Cool Video thanks I am not sold on female MMA, but I’m trying to give it a chance. I am not sexist I just don’t like it, never liked female boxing but women should have the same opportunity if this is their thing. I like Carano to win by a KO, thanks
Aww I am going miss Strikeforce 🙁 why I had go party someone house.
