Let's go Roxanne! Glad to be able to experience her career. She lived by the code anytime any place anybody.
Bruh 50 MMA fights is an incredible milestone for any fighter, not to be overlooked at! Incredible work!
She is the most real and humble fighter the UFC ever had. Such a cool woman!
She sure is, very humble an easy to talk to
@@mid9trambler758 why dont you marry her then?
@@thefartist she's too mellow for me, I enjoy the aggressive type, how about you, Farty.? Roxanne gives a good interview, makes it easy ask her question's. That's all
Ahem..Khabib ALHAMDULILLAH
@@mid9trambler758 she could dome you up while staring into your eyes bro! I prefer Amanda Nunes. Cuz I would only have to last 1.5 rounds and she would be done. Also I wouldn't be able to understand her, so I could just tune her out
Respect to her. If you've seen her interviews or met her, she's a great human being
No one cares
@@artembless7914 you cared enough to reply
@@scypter I care to let him know that no one cares
@@artembless7914 don’t care
@@artembless7914 but you cared enough to click on the video?
Damn it’s gonna be sad to see her retire, she was never the most skilled or exciting fighter to watch but damn if it isn’t easy to cheer for her. She’s so nice and I’m gonna miss all her awesome weigh in shenanigans.
She was the Beneil Dariush of women fighters, a true darkhorse honestly
@@LilGuyOfficial
This might be an unpopular opinion but I think she is so beautiful inside and out. Would love to just go down on her.
@@sandman62100 yeah she's a cutey for sure
@@sandman62100 touch grass
@@sandman62100 Weirdo
She's been in that sport longer than some of us living.
Real MMA Pioneer
She should be a lot more skilled than she is.
AHHHH another keyboard warrior
@@mujoalicic8323 You don't need to be a 'keyboard warrior' to point out Roxanne isn't very skilled.
@@michaelthomas8147 she also was a full time school teacher ma boi priorities
Well how old are u
I really like her attitude
Roxanne vs. Sarah Kaufman was the very first WMMA fight I ever saw. Been a fan of hers ever since. Mad respect to her for all she has done in this sport.
Its a shame that fight was pretty much the only highlight of Sarah Kaufman's career.
Roxanne is one of my favorite nerds due to how she wears it on her sleeve. She doesn't hide her lose of nerd culture and fighting. This is a fighter I truly would love to run a game of Jump Force or borderlands and just converse with.
She being her self
Lame nerd comment of course
“I wanna play video games with her!”
Lame
@@RealRealist515What ya mean ma niga
Great fighter, great ambassador for the sport, even better human being.
Great?
@@FLEPodcast why dont you marry her then bud?
@Dingle berry McDo She’s 25-21 lifetime, that’s not good.
Roxanne is the type of person to inspire many introverts and socially awkward fighters that are up and coming so she has my respect for that.
Why do tou think she is socially awkward and introvert?
I worked the front desk at Syndicate mma and she would always stop to say hello and shoot small talk. I wish her nothing but the best and thank her for all the entertainment she's provided
She’s dope, I like how humble she is. She deserves to be appreciated.
She’s such a dope person. First time I saw her on as when she got slammed back in strikeforce. She’s been getting better ever since. She’s a real martial artist
she has record of 25-20. she is not good or getting better.
@@sadasd2742 aahhhaa
i think she is boring
@@sadasd2742 Who cares? Mark Hunt has a losing record, yet the fans love him.
Her positivity brings me happiness almost brought me to tears
I really hope Roxanne stays relevant in the MMA world. She's such an inspiration, a great person, and a great fighter. I'd love to see her use her name to keep growing women's MMA. Especially the UFC's Featherweight Division, they desperately need her help.
But i also hope she enjoys her retirement. she's certainly earned it and above all else im glad shes being smart and listening to her body. I can't wait to watch her final fight Saturday
i think she’d make a good announcer or maybe a judge
@@shawnharris1269 oh absolutely, living and training out of vegas she'd be a great announcer for UFC Fight Night at the Apex. Plus her genuine personality, plethora of fight knowledge, natural charisma. It just all makes sense
She’s the Nate Diaz of WMMA. Always so close to gold, but not close enough. True Martial artist and underlooked pioneer of the game. Very few female fighters have fought as long as she has in this game. Much respect ✊ Roxy!!
Roxanne’s positive energy will never be matched in the UFC, 1 of a kind fighter. Humble and graceful, all the best in retirement thanks for your entertainment over the years! Rooting for a happy warrior win
I'm going to miss my UFC Sailor Jupiter aka Roxanne in the sport. Looking forward to what you do next, Happy Warrior!
In a sport we have Nunez, Valentina, Pena, Rousey,Tate etc greats in their own right but can't forget about the ones like Roxanne who've been holding it down and paved the way regardless of where their rank was.
Roxanne has to be one of the fighters you wanna be best friends with and she’s kind of a bad ass
Roxanne, your attitude and enthusiasm has always been your strength. You're not biggest or the baddest, but you have the biggest heart and accomplished so much. Best luck in the Octagon, and after!
What a great fighter. Always enjoyed your fights. No one tougher. Thank you
Been watching roxxy for years now she’s been in this sport for so long now she’s a vet could probably be in the hall of fame one day
I wouldn't be surprised, she certainly deserves it. Keyboard warriors will point out her, less than desirable, record. But come on, she deserves it
Roxanne you LEGEND. So much respect for your warrior spirit. Fan from the UK 👍
mad respect.. she's goated forever for ending that little maggot "the future" for us all.. that was such a satisfying fight from the knee to Ben Askren just a awesome MMA moment.. 🐐
I'm young (about 4-5yrs) to the sport but I already couldn't stand 'the future" in Barber because of the UFC hype job push and comparisons to Jon Jones. When Roxxy demolished she became an instant favorite of mine so I rooted for her until the very end.
She looks like a completley different person in the octagon it's crazy
Wow the way she was just rushing on Antonina who's a striker and she ain't doing nothing is pretty beast.
In retrospect, a part of me wishes Roxy beat Nicco for the belt just to say she was champion. Plus she deserved it! But the other part of me is super glad because I would of HATED to see what Valentina would of done to her. Regardless, what a career and what a legend! Glad to see her ride off into the sunset on her call.
Anyone would've been a better champ than the 2 (Nicco the Hutt and Sarge Ibaka) that were supposed to fight for it.
Thanks for a memorable career Roxy!
Always loved your later weigh in looks
You should been champ after the Nico fight, you not only won, you had your best performance in your biggest test. Congratulations
Love Roxanne, she has the spirit of what you hope every fighter has, what a great role model! Sorry to see you go
Her talking about the girl who talked first after the fight makes me like her completely. She litterally didn’t care cuz it really doesn’t matter. She seems pure
Love the happy warrior, I tuned in for so many of her fights just cause of how positive she is.
We loved your work and personality. It was an honor to watch you perform.
She’s definitely tougher than she looks 💪🏻
Seeing her happy and how she takes everything makes it hard to be disappointed about anything she hasn’t accomplished.
Amen. It would have been dope to see her as the inaugural champ, but it is what it is and im so happy Roxanne isn't the type of person to let that eat her up inside. Huge inspiration
She is now one of my favorite fighters ever. Matt Hughes GSP Khabib rampage Valentina and now Roxxane
Lol
One of the most inspirational martial artists to me personally. She just makes me want to be a better happier person.
Super cool lady, I wish her the absolute best in retirement. God bless her.
Ronda who?! Roxanne is the name that should be remembered for being a pioneer. 50 fights. Absolute legend.
Thank you Roxanne for everything you’ve done for MMA and the UFC.
Yes thank you for exact same boring matches in every fight !!!!!!!!!!!!
What exactly did she “do”? She’s barely above .500 with 20 fucking losses.
@@alexbentley486 She is a professional fighter she fights whoever you put in front of her. What about you?
@@bryanorit9786 That didn't answer his question. You described almost every pro fighter.
@@alexbentley486 she’s a pioneer of women’s MMA for the UFC. She’s one of the last remaining OG’s of women’s MMA. You probably don’t care cuz like most MMA fans, you probably don’t appreciate women’s mma.
My wife knows almost nothing about MMA, but Roxanne is her favorite fighter just because of her attitude and demeanor.
What a pioneer, may she enjoy retirement like she deserves
Roxanne a real one, she been in the UFC since I was 7, insane.
A true pioneer of the fight game. Don’t need to be a champion to be respected
Really hoping she gets the win on Saturday! One of the all time greats
Its going to be the same boring crap she always does. Watch she'll even wear a sweatshirt again 🤣🤣
@@vazdef 😂
One of my all-time favorite athletes. Respect to Roxanne!!
Id love to see Roxanne get a commentating gig or something of the sort. She is really interesting, positive and has some great insights about both fighting and life in general.
Seems like a lovely person and a true warrior! congrats on your achievements your a true legend
Wishing her continued success in life after this last fight ! She seems like such a genuine person, rooting for her
She's a legend 🤘
Damn… wasn’t expecting to get teary eyed watching this
Truly humble, fucking right Roxanne.
Such an inspiration
A living MMA LEGEND!
What a legend. Respect ❤️🔥
Ufc should have had her do the press conference and just be more involved during the week. She's very likable and with the back story of this being her last they could market it easily. Would've made this moment that much more special for her in doing so while selling the card.
Roxifighter is always just Roxanne. I don't think she could be anything else if she tried. Such a nice girl. Good athlete and such a good sport taking wins and losses as they come. I wish her well on the next part of her life.
not for nothin' more than a few fighters could take a few notes on how to be a person from Roxi.
So happy the UFC did this video on Roxanne!! I have always loved watching her fight and she is such wonderful ambassador for the sport. Go Roxanne!!!
The inspiration she give off is astounding...God bless
Always liked Roxy ...
She's one of the realest people I know of , and always comes to fight .
What a freaking legend.
How could you Not love this women, go get it Roxane, you are one of the best to ever do it.
Future Hall of Famer is absolutely deserved
Without a doubt, she’s going to make it into the pioneer wing
From what I've seen people say it sounds like UFC hasn't treated her fairly and repeatedly fed her against top competition instead of letting her work her way up. As she says in the video a fight's a fight and she doesn't really care. She probably should have tho.
I have to agree with that. The UFC is known for doing their legends and veterans dirty by feeding them to up and comers to make names off of them, and then throwing them away like trash once they outlive their usefulness (after a losing streak) without even a proper send off. Roxy was one of them, she upset the odds quite a number of times to the annoyance of Dana White who I think still hasn't forgiven her for derailing Maycee Barber's hype train. As punishment, he's making her fight another young prospect in Casey O'Neill and the UFC really wants Casey to win.
@@madgavin7568 I don't know if Dana is ignorant like that to hold malice or something towards someone for simply doing the job he pays them to do.
@@MrWolfchamp-xi3cu Dana is one to hold grudges. He's a spiteful, petty, vindictive asshole.
What a Happy Spirit. So much positivity yet a badass Fighter. Congrats🎉. Thanks for the Fights 'Happy Warrior'💯🔥👑
How can you not like this person? Such a presence and a trail blazer, still putting the young guns in their place. Have a great last fight in the cage!
I think she has become my favorite fighter. Respect
Her attitude makes me smile.
When I think of her, I think ATTITUDE and HEART.
What a beautiful human being. The Happy warrior, all the best to this young lady in whatever she does in the future. Beautiful human being.
I dont wanna see her go Im so sad but want her to have a happy life
the ufc needs to do a better job of marketing these kinds of fighters.
Amen, Dana sucks at his job marketing people whose names isn't "McGregor", smh.
Speaking of, I really hope Roxanne stays around in the MMA world and uses her name to help market these up and coming women. Especially in the Women's Featherweight division, they desperately need her help.
Hey best moment was crushing Macy barbers hype that was a huge moment
Thank youuuuuu Roxanne for having the COURAGE to stand up for women in sports!!!! You're awesome.
Roxanne was and still is very successful. She entertained and fulfilled her own dreams always very respectful
I've barely watched her fights (mostly TUF) and don't follow her media but whatever amount of content I watched of her, I always felt she was extremely charming and sweet with her adorable personality. I wish her the best.
A pioneer and a great person.
She’s awesome man! Great career loved watching her fight.
I still remember seeing those odds they gave roxanne the barber fight I didnt even hesitate and threw 20 at it cuz I really hate barber but more than that they disrepecting roxannes ground game shes a real female black belt unlike maycee and being doing the damn thing for females out here, thank you roxy for your service watching your mma career come to fruition really taught me some important lessons in life
Respect to you Roxanne
So much love and respect for this woman.
Just started watching T U F season 18. She seems so 🆒️. Love her style, her demeanor. Too sweet.❤
I'll never forget the happy warrior
50 fights! Nice job. Take care!
is it just me or is anyone else crazy interested in how people who are willing to beat someones face in for money are simultaneously people you would absolutely want as your neighbor
Lolol, wonderboy has entered the chat
She’s such a sweet-heart. I hope she enjoys her retirement.
Thank you. You are a champion.
Roxanne is too wholesome! Hope she get the w for her last bout! If anyone deserves it, Lord knows it's Happy Roxy
Respect ✊ I hope she gets the win
Roxanne has been one of the most likeable fighters in the UFC. If she is open to it, I hope the UFC is able to give her employment outside of fighting like they did with Forrest.
Thank youuuuuuuu Roxanne for standing up for women in sports!!!! You are awesome.
Her and Izzy on the same card just makes sense.
Beautiful personality and great person she is great, hell of a fighter
You Rock Girl! ✊ I've been a fan since your first fight in the ufc ❤ I love your vibe, I will be chanting for you come fight night ✌👊
put her in the Hall of Fame immediately!
Why!?
her happiness is contagious
Refreshing to see a humble fighter,
Roxanne the most unlikely person you think you would pick as a UFC Fighter as she is so damn nice , but she has the heart of a true warrior and given us some great fights , FULL RESPECT enjoy ya retirement Roxanne and Thankyou .
She never won a title but i still seeher as a legend of the game
