Cyborg vs Carano as coaches.

Think of it... it could be like Forest and Stephen.... brings more MMA to fans... would bring in a new group of fans to the sport... raise the value of Strikeforce. I just see this as a win win business move.

I wouldn't watch one episode.

The only thing that could possibly be of interest to me would be leaked footage on youtube of some nip slips.

I don't think it would work. Look at the WNBA - no one watches that, and Basketball is a much more established sport. There just isn't enough interest in Women's MMA to pull off a full season, even if Gina and Cyborg coached.

Im just thinking with the money they got UFC could roll the dice and fire off a show, maybe not replace TUF but copy it and see what the interest is?

Will there be mud or jello involved? Laughing

I voted no, but I would watch one or two episodes outa curiousity I guess.
Just not enough interest on the womans side of MMA.

I think it would help a ton.
Aim it directly at the female fan base as well, by putting it on WE or Oxygen.

There isn't enough talent in women's MMA on the big stage, so how much talent do you think they could scrape together for something like this?

Think about it;
Other than 5 or 6 fighters, women's MMA is severely shallow on talent.
If you compare the skillset of current UFC fighters to the skillset of your average TUF cast, it's a severe difference.
Now imagine instead of talking about the dropoff of UFC to TUF, we're talking about SF women to women's TUF. Can you imagine how awful the talent would be on that show?

The whole point would be to develop talent. Woman's wrestling an Olympic event alone could provide lots of talent. Provide a forum for the women to fight and they will show up.

I don't disagree that it's about developing talent, as it should be. But I just don't see it lasting due to the casual viewer losing interest in the very likely event of a severe lack of talent.

I just think people would lose patience very quickly, and the ratings would suffer. That would be the end of it.
I'm sure there is some talent out there, but from what I have seen from what I am assuming is the best of the best, I don't think you could fill a show out with what would likely be fighters with a lesser skillset than we have seen so far in women's MMA.
