certain MMA fans on Gina Carano

Rich Davie, a Gina Carano fan, recently made an epic post in our forum and on his website about arguments and counter arguments for Gina’s critics.
There are some critics and nay sayers of the lovely Gina Carano (who is the “Face of Women’s MMA”) when it comes to her MMA skills that’s unwarranted in my opinion.
The most common argument that some MMA fans like to throw around to demean and minimize her as an MMA fighter is that Gina has done nothing in her MMA career and is nothing more than a “pretty face” who is not even worth watching as an MMA fighter.
These same individuals like to defend male MMA fighters of their liking who have fought minimally talented fighters as well, but offer up the explanation that the particular division they were or are fighting in is or was way too thin at the time, but at least they took on whatever fighters they were matched-up against.
Apparently to these individuals this argument is only valid when applied to male fighters.
I say bullshit… the argument for minimally talented / thin divisions is indeed a valid one, but if this mindset is acceptable when applied to male MMA fighters than it needs to be evenly applied across the board to female fighters as well.
