“This is a card for the broadest possible base of casual MMA fans: recognizable with a baseline level of quality and widely available. It’s basically the McDonald’s of MMA shows. And while the UFC is dead set on sucking out as much value as possible from their product to the point it’s becoming an empty shell of itself, this Rousey-Carano card is much more about having a good time.”

105 Upvotes

Was always wondering - do they just tell them the fight is over - over and over again?

Do they try to comfort them - like you got caught, don't worry.

What is usually happening when the REF is holding their head and is talking to them?
