How many times have you said the same comment about a male fighter? lol She cannot fight at all, just like all women. A man will cave her skull in, no doubt.

[@cristianchavez1699]

Alexas boxing is crispy af.. very happy for her

[@mikeallenfpv]

I'm not mad at this TUF season. Idk why anybody would be mad.

[@josephboza7448]

Fans are still very bitter we havent had our tuf 31 coaches fight with mcGregor and Chandler. Also Alexa is the UFC Womens Flyweight Champion. No champ should be on this show. We have Maycee Barber and then she will likely face the winner of Erin Blanchfield vs Manon Fiorot probably at UFC 306.

[@jasonwebb6484]

No champ should be on the show? Like when Chuck Liddel (C) coached then fought against Randy Couture. Or GSP (C) vs. Koscheck, Jones (C) vs. Chael,

[@josephboza7448]

@@jasonwebb6484 the media hates it when ANY champion does this show. dont know if they are still bitter that Conor vs Chandler hasnt happened.

[@jasonwebb6484]

@@josephboza7448 true. Also - TUF’s best days are probably behind us. It’ll be hard to find another Diego Sanchez, Tony Ferguson or Nate Diaz character (who can entertain & also fight at the top of their divisions). What I mean is - there will always be amazing new fighters, but we won’t be ‘discovering’ them on The Ultimate Fighter.

[@snesleywipessqueegeeservices]

Love Alexa so much, what a fabulous champion and an all round wonderful person. The one thing that will make this sour is if Dana forces some kind of Powerslap tie-in or promotion to TUF as that is not martial arts and I am sad and depressed to see good characters financially browbeaten into having to say they support it when we know in their hearts they do not/ cannot.

[@paulvivrett7029]

My God, Alexa is adorable. And of course an incredible striker. Love her footwork and her feints, and her combos! She's gonna win the third fight!!

That lady who’s ask about people complaining or shock about woman’s coaching got to do some research I feel . There has been woman coaches before on TUF - and cmon I doubt anyone real complain it was Shock.

[@AndyMann19]

Shes trolling. I wouldn’t doubt if it was all made up. She’s trying to make it a big deal. Boo to that reporter.

[@rave123456v]

It's not that there haven't been Female coaches but this time they are coaching the guys only not guys and girls which is entirely different. Alex and Valentina are going to be the only girls there with 20 guys all in a hostile situation and got their own problems asking for trouble here if you know what I mean.

[@carlosescuza3524]

Alexa is a class act, and I wish her much success.

[@pokemonovice9758]

Grasso beats Valentina for the 3rd time in a row, and for sure can go down ad the greatest flyweight of all time with just one or 2 title defenses. Obviously the champ won the last fight, but of course a bad judge like Sal D'amato was gonna give the 4th round to Valentina, and so Mike Bell -who clearly saved Valentina of a 2nd consecutive loss to Alexa by giving her round 4 for some reason-... round 4 Alexa had more strikes landed, had more submission attempts, had the slam, had the transitions on the ground, and had the center of the cage (octagon control and aggression) most of the round.... yet the king of bad decisions Sal D'amato gave that 4th round to Valentina lol

[@josephboza7448]

Sal D Amato is the reason we are having this triology. Imagine the backlash if Alexa had beaten Valentina for a 2nd time. I think 125 has finally caught up to Valentina.

[@pokemonovice9758]

Yeah, she doesn't get better, she uses the exact same weapons with the same timing and setups, over and over again. She's not fighting the Amanda Nunes and Lauren Murphys of the world. These women are fast, technical, wellrounded, evolving, young and hungry. I think Natalia Silva would also beat Valentina, I think Tracy Cortez would beat Val too, a couple other contenders would give her a little trouble@@josephboza7448

[@FightSportTalk]

Why did the UFC pick them as coaches? The division is actually exciting because of Blanchfield, Fiorot and Barber coming up, as well as this trilogy. This is going to hold up the division, when its actually the exciting one in Women's MMA. Also the UFC wants drama on TUF because it's reality TV, what drama is going to go on between these two?

[@rollin60z]

Women = drama. You dont know about mma, stick to soccer boy

[@josephboza7448]

125 isnt clogged up. Dana wanted the triology at UFC 306. It will fit well with filming of this show. Fans are just pissed that Alexa as a champion is tied up but dont think there will be any issues. Fans could still be bitter that we havent gotten the TUF 31 coaches fight. The drama is that there is a triology fight. People believed Valentina won the 2nd one. Maycee could face the winner of Erin/Manon at UFC 306

[@victor19944]

Barber should fight Andrade she is not ready yet

Not sure there is such a thing as too "girly for the sport". The girly-er the better IMO. Often the females in MMA are too masculine looking. It's 2024 though. You do you, boo.
