Everyone gets destroyed by Carano... lol So you I can't really claim that as a screw up. Maybe that's a difference between you and me. I expect more of my fighters. I expect my capped fighters to be unbeatable. Not to lose to D'Alelio, then to Carano. If nothing else, she should have been able to beat D'Alelio again. That was a screw up, and Tate will suffer as a result. Her upcoming training regiment will be insane, and she will be a brand new fighter by the end of next season. |

I do expect D'Alelio to be unbeatable at this point, that's why I'm so pissed off about it because the fact is, is that she's not... but we see other fighters like Cyborg, Carano or, more to my point, like Murphy, who have have virtually unbeatable right from word go or before they've been capped by a newb that has/had hardly even a basic knowledge of MMA. |

...because they are legitimately better fighters... hurray for realism! Murphy is NOT a better fighter, not by any stretch of the imagination nor. So there's no realism there whatsoever. So STFU while still have a shred of credibility. |

Just to play some The Devil's Advocate on Laser Disc here, in real life, Murphy does officially hold a win over Sarah D'Alelio. Just throwing that out there if we want to move in the "realism" direction.

So yah, Murphy qualifies... and it wasn't all to do with your upgrades either. Murphy should never have been that good to start off with. |

Maybe she isn't shit it's probably you don't like he which is why you call her shit. |

Murphy should never have been that good to start off with. She was 7-0 in real life when I picked her up. Maybe she isn't shit it's probably you don't like he which is why you call her shit. She was 5-0 with no impressive wins over anybody important before she got to Invicta. She had a decent fight against Young but she should've lost to D'Alelio. I dunno if the judges had both contacts in one eye or what happened with their score cards for that fight, cuz there shouldn't have been a 30-28 score from any of the judges unless it was in favor of D'Alelio; somebody fucked up there. And I mean, mistakes happen and that's fine, but most anyone competent in MMA that saw that fight agrees that D'Alelio won that fight, other than the ones that judged it of course. lol Murphy was gift wrapped that win for whatever reason, despite the piss-poor performance she put out compared to D'Alelio's... and it was that "win" that got her the title fight vs. Nakamoto, that she likely would never have won had Nakamoto not injured her knee. Then she finally gets the loss she deserved when jumps to UFC and loses to McMann. lol As far as I'm concerned, she's on of those fighters that her record doesn't indicate how good she actually is and the Nakamoto fight aside, cuz injuries are an act of nature, her record should probably be 7-2 or something, but if she'd gotten the recorded loss to D'Alelio that she should have, there likely wouldn't have been a title fight for her in Invicta. She probably would've went to UFC anyways, simply because Dana signed Amanda Nunes not long after being annihilated by D'Alelio at Invicta 4. She isn't shit, but she's not as good as she's hyped to be... not by a long shot. My affinity to D'Alelio isn't because she's that hyped, it's because I like the way she fights... I mean, I was initially drawn in by her phoenix tattoo then I saw she had a submission win over Vanessa Porto, and I was like: "Holy shit. That's not easy... I'll check this chick out." and when I did, I saw how amazing her ground work was and how calm and in control of everything she usually is. But I also like that she's had to earn everything she's gotten, she hasn't had anything handed to her. |

So you're trying to say that Murphy was handed her belt here?
