Dana White has indicated that she's waiting to see if she is approved by the state and he basically said she need to beat someone that matters first. If she doesn't make it to UFC it's because she isn't as good as the other competitors.

He said the same thing about Fedor for YEARS.. He will not paint himself in a corner. he is smart enough to know not to incase there is a demand for IT.. Still I see no way he lets IT fight under his banners

Where's the cutoff (pun intended)?

I've got to take a quick time out to acknowledge this is hilarious.

Edit: also, props to Merc for not being offensive on this one. We may disagree but I can see that you at least aren't coming from a position of ignorant.

Do you know how many MMA orgs fall by the wayside... It can fight in CFA or any of the leagues IT wants too.. Dana White will not soil the UFC or any of his smaller leagues with this crap. Ask Fedor how tight a ship Dana runs..

Nice pronoun use. Stay classy.

I'm not a bigot at all, and though tin is coming off a bit strong, he's absolutely right in this argument.

If you don't think there would be a competitive difference between trained fighters, one of whom developed as a man for over 20 years versus a naturally born woman, you're being purposefully dense. If you admit that there would be an advantage in that scenario, this shouldn't even be an argument.

No one called you a bigot. You are not calling her an it.

But you are ignoring the effect of hormone therapy on her body.

He didn't get MMA to where it is today by not putting a finger on the pulse of the public and giving it what it wants when it was feasible and profitable to do so.. Fedor Emelianenko was thought to be the best fighter in the world and his manager had to build M-1 around him because Dana White wouldn't sell the farm to get Fedor in the UFC. You do understand that the sport has come a long way in the last 10 years to the point you can flip through your cable guide and usually find a couple MMA fights to watch. It is a brutal sport that he has took out of the back room and put in the spot light.

I just don't see him taking a chance on losing fans over a man beating up women which wouldn't be acceptable to a bunch of folks. It is still genetically a guy... he will leave it open though encase there is a demand for it..

More to lose than gain IMO

Not really. That doesn't make up for two decades of better muscle/fat development and fat allocation. Look at the pictures. She's bigger than Cyborg, one of the top female fighters in the world - who recently got popped for juicing.

In a sport where broken necks, cracked vertebra, broken jaws, and horror-movie hematoma aren't uncommon- it's an unfair advantage. This isn't rowing or shotput or even wrestling.

IT

Short for women with a penis and no boobs

call it what you want.. I see no place for it.

No.

It is not a pronoun that refers to a human in the context you are using the pronouns.

Well here are your choices

He - refers to a man

She - refers to a women

It is about all that is left.. No penus makes It a part short of a man and a chromosome from being women
