Meisha is SO RIGHT!! Everyone else (including Daniel) are completely off on this topic. Meisha hit the nail on the head!!

[@316rayan]

Itz her attitude that is suspect. Conor got major hate after Diaz loss. Conor did not cry or make excuses or start hating the world. He came back like a champ. Micheal Bisping ...the hendo K.o was brutal came back. Vitor after the Anderson K.o came back. Rousey just acted like an emotional little girl, blaming the media for what? Or was she that naive and believed she was invincible. Joanna is such better than Ronda in terms of fighting.

[@warrengslab]

Rayan Mathew but he didn't get screwed the way holly did her

[@316rayan]

Thekingcox MC Ronda still had her fans. Tons of people said Conor was exposed, if he fights Nate he is gonna lose. Ronda brought more negative attention on herself by hiding and showing the trolls she was affected by the memes and hatred. Ronda has to know her limitation for one She cannot kick..never thrown leg kick in the ufc. She is not smooth striker like holly, she bum rushed a counter striker. People who laugh at the fall of great people r just weak minded people glad they got another loser to keep them company. Fun fact Ronda has already surpassed 80% of people on Earth. Trolls will still try.

[@unrealspetznaz]

I dont see McGregor as such a great fighter (yet), but he certainly took defeat very well. He was classy admitting defeat, and then cameback and won in a brutal war. Ronda is a superb fighter, but mentally she is not at McGregors level. Not close.

[@mcmc4176]

Rayan Mathew I think Joanna would take Ronda if they fight at 125 tho

[@AdamYoudell]

Tate is earning points with me. I never really cared for her, not dislike, just kind of indifference. Kinda growing on me though. I wouldn't mind her in a media role now that she's out

[@nlehman26]

Adam Youdell- I don't really take anything Tate says about Rhonda for anything. She is bitter and I can't blame her. Just 10 months ago she finically wins the belt then gets totally embarrassed by Amanda then some no name girl. Tate will always live in Rousey's shadow.

[@AdamYoudell]

I don't buy it. I think Tate is over it. I think Tate is telling the truth about Amanda, we'll see. Ronda better hope she can avoid those shots long enough to do her thing, or it's gonna be a very bad night for her.

[@solemgameinsights]

"Winners focus on winning, losers focus on winners". That's all that needed to be said here.

[@mcmc4176]

DC is such a bias ahahahaha. When Conor got pulled outta UFC 200 DC: It's promotion, It's part of our job. When Ronda didn't do media DC: Ronda Rousey doesn't have to do media.

[@VexedViewer]

The more i see Miesha the more i like her.

[@nickvogas4918]

every fighter who's going to be responsible for 1 million plus ppvs buys HAS to do media. this will be a profitable fight for the ufc, but I truly believe that her not taking part in the media will cost the ufc about 250,000-300,000 ppvs buys. to get those big ppvs numbers, you have to appeal to all of the casual fans and give them something to talk about.

[@edch7516]

miesha would do a great mma analyst, she's very articulate and likable

[@warrengslab]

Ed Ch meh

[@chriscornelius2518]

I really like Daniel Cormier. He is stating the truth on this matter. If you listen to him, he is saying in this regard. Cormier is a wonderful ambassador to the UFC.

[@Mazzy214]

DC looking good considering he pulled off from ufc 206. he healing fast dude

[@wrldw4r]

Bybek he's scared.

[@dickson9334]

Everything Dc says is spot on every word

[@simonlee498]

I think Meisha wants Rondas celebrity status

[@franco30528]

simonlee498 that is extremely obvious

[@LordLobov]

Didn't know dc had a brother

[@akozengna]

Please stop referring to the "media" as A person. Why should Ronda be loyal for the "media"? It is an institution, and remembers you when ur famous, and then 50 years later when you die (or 5, depends..). She is loyal though to the fans, who love her, and know that it is the right thing to do before a big fight after a big loss. Just lay low, train hard, and focus! Am putting my money on Ronda, knowing that Nunes is dangerous with a big F, but seeing the back muscles Ronda got, she will brake nunes arms!

[@JV-ps6xp]

Ako Zengna Nah.

[@BBBYpsi]

Do not blame her for not wanting to do any media the way the all treated her after her loss.

[@taxidrivernwo]

Fans were brutal. Media was more than fair. I was a huge Ronda fan. From before her first fight with Meisha even though I have soured on her extreme "with me or against me" attitude, and she had many people make excuses for her. Still people disrespecting other champs in the meantime to build her up.

[@MRostendway]

BBBYpsi The media actually continued protecting her in general. It was just the fans who savaged her.

[@dootdoot1867]

Miesha having an opinion on Rhonda is as valuable as that terrible makeup job. It's sad when Meisha's face looks better right before a fight when she has minimal makeup on.

[@gaylordmcgillicuddy8745]

You misspelled Miesha and Ronda. And you do realize that the tv people do her makeup, right?.

[@littlesweets3390]

DootDoot ....I'm sorry, what were you saying about Miesha's opinion?...cause she was EXACTLY correct

[@JV-ps6xp]

DootDoot Oh, but Miesha had more credibility and is justified to say what she wants. You know why? Because she's correct in her statements AND she will be more of a fighter than Ronda will ever be. You know why? She lost multiple times and still came back to win the belt. She ain't no pathetic loser like Ronda, you dweeb.

[@bobbyknuckles3623]

I think the reason she sells out shows is because people want to see her get beat again

[@nlehman26]

See this is the difference between Rousey and Conor. Conor takes his loss comes back and wins and takes it on the chin

[@solemgameinsights]

Except Ronda had a big hole in her game in her striking that Holly exposed. You don't go right back and fight after having that revealed. Ronda needed more training. ESPECIALLY when fighting someone like Nunes.

[@TrashBagCharlie]

Nicholas Lehman Conor took his lose under the chin...

[@SugarRayValentine]

Nicholas Lehman exactly Conner didn't run from post fight interviews when he lost to Diaz, he took it like a man

[@snuggleseal]

meisha was 100% correct.

[@34stzoo]

Now i understand why people don't like Daniel Cormier!

[@Dreaming-11]

Miesha is the best, love her Shut up Cormier, stop licking Rhonda's boots

[@bluefivepointstar2899]

Dreaming#11 Tate is a Ronda hater, I doubt she's objective

[@lickaginger4916]

In her past interviews on this subject she seems objective

[@lancecade2527]

I think it's best for her to not do media , but she should be penalized. This is a very important and dangerous fight for her so her focus is key 🔑

[@808bboarder]

1:09 D.C being fed everything to say from his boss.

[@Etechization]

God I love Meisha 😍

[@everythingisaprocess]

Miesha Tate called it perfectly.

[@carlydavis2443]

But the difference is that Dana white said she did EVERYTHING UFC asked her to do and if the guys didn't want to she picked the ball up herself. So maybe they excepted the fact she didn't want to because she already did everything under the terms and the conditions they wanted her to.

[@Hamsterfishindustries]

look at miesha taking every chance to tear her down. shes such a caddy person.

[@raseclarbac]

Misha Tate knows more and have a better understanding of the issues than all the others "mans specialists" together. She is one of the firsts to talk the true about Ronda and to see the problems of Ronda and to predicted the defeated because she knew the power of Amanda. She herself was destroyed by Amanda too. But she come out in the end with a better spirit and her head is still in good shape , her brain is intact , that´s why she can make a much more intelligent comments than this others MMA fighters.

[@pacemaker2point0]

Thought this was Christopher Dorner

[@jll9697]

Pressure breaks pipes. All eyes on Ronda I have respect for her. These mma fighters put all their hard work for us to see, then we criticize them. Again I have lots of respect for the winner and the loser. Keep training guys!!!

[@shinigamicannie9746]

Then conor mcgregor doesn't need to do media because his fights are already sold. double standards

[@chrisjamez00]

#fatinthehat with a good point for once...good stuff

[@andrewamavisca4061]

These media people talk about how they might turn on Rousey if she were to lose, so what. The media needs someone to write about and bad news sells. They need her, she does not need them.

[@dcme9117]

get over it. she built the organization. people are only talking about her because she's a brand. Nunez is a fighter. just saying

[@joaovitorcabral7224]

Estimated 700k buys, DC. You were saying what?

[@TheMasterashton]

DC knows more about business then all of these noobs

[@deaaaazz]

TheMasterashton what were you saying ?? 😂😂😂

[@TheMasterashton]

Read it again, dipshit.

[@TheBurn7777]

Daniel is right

[@Mr111255]

This pay per view will do bum numbers

[@laceyharris9901]

The only good thing is this comment section is your arrow profile pic! haha

[@SoCali_Surfer]

Thumbs up for Cormier! Tate is too invested in her hate of all things Rousey to even pretend her comments are objective.

[@Daynnikes]

2016 the year of gettin humbled

[@J_Tevo]

Personally I think that you shouldn't have special treatment just because of your big name. She should have the same advantages and disadvantages as everyone else. The year off is that, 1 whole year of little to no press and she can't do 1 fight week. Look at Conor he lost to Nate, huge media backlash for all his trash talk and belittling when he was on top of the world. For his rematch he did loads more media and took the loss like a champ should, in their stride. Ronda has thrown her toys out the pram, she has through away all the things that got her money, fame and an acting career. Personally even if she wins it's not a proper one, because she's had an easier route to the title. No fight for the spot, no media, a year to train and away from everything. She's had it extremely easy, yes she has more eyes on her than Amanda, but Amanda has fought twice since Ronda has, she's done the promotion for all her fights and even this one. Cruz and Garbrant have done more than they have to, hindering their fight. It's wrong to put her on a higher podium because of her fame and name. She's a fighter, all should be the same to the company. Dana said that to Conor when he missed 1 interview, not ALL media obligations.

[@welingtonalvares]

Spot on Cormier hahahahah

[@EarthSurferUSA]

Who is that little trouble maker on the right side? Doesn't he have a "safe space" to go to?

[@kennethwill88]

They fine marshawn for not talking to the media during the super bowl

[@Baitullmaqdis]

I have no idea what the other guys is talking about .... what ever misha says it's true ... oh god I'm in love

[@GODTHESOOTHSAYER1]

DC will fall apart when Jon Jones comes back... OOOPS! Wrong fight!!

[@GODTHESOOTHSAYER1]

Tate should be topless during these shows...

[@James-re6co]

Miesha is awesome! :o)

[@GhostMan-gs7zr]

Rousey doing media or not has no effect on the number of PPV sales. People already know who she is and will either spend the money or not.

[@dakingataleedo]

dont other athletes get reemed if they ignore the media

[@supershero4351]

The only excitement in UFC Women's fighting is Ronda the public has spoken via the stats..........anyone else is just blahhhhhh....that's the way it is. Ronda proved herself....when someone else comes in and does the same, then, they can talk.

[@fightfan9739]

Who the fook is that!? 😂😂😂

[@realistbob7178]

No Ronda can what ever she wants.....I love D.C.....Ronda better win! if she dosent with all the drama and hype....

[@fightfan9739]

realist bob 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kextrz]

3:56. McIntyre is that right? I hope he's inflating tyres at the local garage and nothing else. When Misha Tate is making more sense than two of the talking heads here, it means something.

[@scrubs2324]

The media asked the same questions and is covered by most that dont follow the sport. I don't watch UFC for the media questions unless is Ariel....

[@kimal5842]

Salty Miesha

[@danoblk]

DC my boy!!!

[@MegaGoku420]

i dont see this doing record breaking records

[@bluefivepointstar2899]

Stop hating she doesn't have to talk

[@AK-qy3gp]

Miesha.. You can't hide that jealousy on your face can you :) .. Go Ronda

[@larryhoover718]

Shes not jealous, it's just not fair. Obviously you aren't an avid viewer of the UFC or else you would know that it ain't about the fighter, it's the show. Dana, Connor, and Ronda have all turned this sport into WWE. MMA is about disaprine, not egotism

[@AK-qy3gp]

tellz117 bhahahahahah get off her dic.. Jermom phat ronda 2 miesha 0, this is no wwe mate stats talks for its self

[@AK-qy3gp]

jermom phat avid pff

[@dickson9334]

Akhenaten Aksoy it's killing miesha all this ronda ronda you can see the looks miesha is giving Dc she is pissed hahaha

[@bulletproof1581]

I completely agree and started thinking this as soon as she started talking, no amount of sugar can outweigh the level of salty potshots being taken at Ronda by Miesha aha

[@KONEABE]

Ronda is not selling any more fights, what a waste of money for less then one minute!!!!!

[@shogunjobu]

Not a fan of DC at all anymore.

[@jordantheseriousmmaanalyst1318]

Conor needs to do it more cause he's Conor he's known for the trash talk above all else

[@killazz13]

if you are rich AF, who cares about pay per view numbers...

[@ladyapplebeast]

That guy on the far right needs to close his chops. Let Ronda focus on the fight is all she's doing!

[@kaiboy47]

Rhonda got owned

[@ilikefights4141]

rondas gonna take everything miesha said and twist it into the most disrespectful, nastiest statements she can think of. ronda reminds me of my older sister she thinks everyones against her and wants to see her fall lol no she got knocked out and she was one of the biggest stars in the ufc. she really thought the media wouldn't have anything to say lol she's so stuck up

[@Ronin2091]

Miesha is a 2 time world mma champion she has nothing to prove...Ronda is special attention over emotional fighter who lives in a revenge movie...shes done nunez rang her bell now ronda is back in reality.

[@codymasengale9912]

meisha tells it. its because ronda is a female.

[@JimCim78]

miesha the fighter was so much cooler than miesha the commentator. man shut up miesha and (trigger warning) make me a sandwitch

[@ig495]

JimCim78 she probs choke you unconscious first bro.

[@JimCim78]

+Ian Graham i think miesha is a womans woman, though. she might choke me, but she'd make me a sandwitch, too....or cupcakes..

[@justtellmethetruth7377]

Gonna love all the crow you talking heads are going to eat after Rondas win.

[@Ronin2091]

she got knocked the f out a min into the fight...shes done...this is what happen when you surround yourself with yes people and you don't train with a real mma coach.

[@EsotericOccultist]

Really dumbfuck? Tell us more.

[@ticesine6589]

Jade Foxx hahahahahahahaha you were cheering for a girl that doesn't even know how to fight lol she only knows the hip toss lol she will end up in wwe

[@FiRe24710]

Jade Foxx Take that fat L

[@michaelchimal4885]

miesha is soo bitter

[@dondidarnell4324]

tsk! tsk! tsk!

[@shogunjobu]

it's all bull...NBA.. NFL..all other sports athletes have to do media, stop catering to entitled spoiled people. she gets paid 3 million to get blasted not land one punch and is above doing media.

[@alwill58kief2]

McGregor Rousey media stars not real Champions both will be gone by 2017 end.

[@Daynnikes]

miesha tate lost to her.. got tapped. so..

[@Emmet-sx8fk]

miesha tate because she's a female really.... well that's equality gone out the window

[@jasonjacobo6071]

Oh God Daniel Cormier talking again dude is so annoying.

[@ashleemontoya721]

So did the media win the belt for her too?? What about what's best for her and this fight. # loyalrondafan

[@MasterTeep]

GREAT WHITE HOPE? I won't be viewing any content from this channel which sucks because Daniel and Tate are awesome to listen to, but Huell from Breaking Bad not so much.

[@NEOBAK]

they got the race baiting on lock
