Agreed. Growing up in the days of Evel Knievel, Ali, Frazier and Foreman, the only other events that gave me goosebumps was the Russian Line on The Red Wings and watching Mike Tyson. UFC and MMA competition in general has brought a level of excitement and imagination to the fighting sport. I know boxing isn’t just brawn and training. It truly is chess and ability. MMA is chess in four dimensions in comparison.

When Rose is on, she's she best at 115. At least as of a year or so ago. I feel like she's just over the grind that it takes to be the best, and she's focused on other things. Can't blame her. She's made her money and reached the top of her division twice. I hope she has at least one more good run in her but imo she needs to go back to 115 and try to figure out how to be more aggressive. Easier said than done for sure
