When I'm focused on the fight they are doing nothing but clinching, I take a break from the screen and every time I come back Raquel has about to be choked

arbed out again, only giving up 14% potential win this time, seems worth it again.

Snoozefest. Poor iq, no damage, no cardio, 90% of the fight in the clinch.

yeah I'm really high on her potential, even though she has a pro record of 1-0, I really think she could walk into the UFC and compete with the very best. Future WMMA goat

Happy for Pennington even though it wasn't the most entertaining fight, I always thought she was a dog (in a non-sexist way). She always comes to fight.
