    Who knew Danny Trejo had a daughter? I hope she fares better in UFC than George Lucas' daughter.

    I'd cast her for that Jennifer Garner biopic.

    Didn't she paralyze Hillary Swank in "Million Dollar Baby"?

    After seeing the explosion of coverage this morning, I have to admit I'm 100 percent in the OP's camp. I. Just. Don't. Get. It.

    She missed with the majority of the punches......seemed very sloppy. She's the best in a very small class of women. The headlines are hyperbole. Serena Williams is infinitely more impressive because she's beating opponents that have a clue.

    She's the big fish in a small pond. She really can't help it that there is no competition on her level. She's now beaten all of the fighters in the women's bantamweight division's top five, as well as six of the top seven and seven of the top 10.

    Sure, she's getting a lot more attention because she's decent looking and American. If she looked like Cyborg she would not be getting nearly this level of coverage. If she's as smart as she seems to be she'll whip ass a little while longer, retire permanently with her brain, looks, and undefeated record intact, and make action movies. She's set up to cash in and be set for life.

    I can see her "retiring" in the next couple of years, if only to let some other contenders to emerge ahead of her comeback a year later.
