Hate to say it, but saw this coming. I kinda don’t know what to do here in the women’s division. Kaufman, Cyborg and Carano dominate it all. Everyone else is just on the scale of “pretty good” to “Gracie”. Hopefully getting more women in the mix after this event will reshuffle things a bit. But yeah, in terms of this fight, I got nothing. You can see it – all Kaufman. She’s a beast.
