Holly's footwork and angles were on another level. made ronda look like an amateur out there. had ronda out there flailing for a clinch looking like an idiot.

and people think she can fuck with floyd lol

 

[Obliterator]

This rematch will be FUCKING GIGANTIC dude.

We are talking insane buy rate if Ronda manages to come back and win a couple fights

 

[NYR]

In the rematch, Ronda will win though.

That was a 1/10 in thing.

She was close to being a 1st round armbar statistic.

WRONG.

Ronda is a KO hitter, and when she wasn't getting her way, she got lazy and wasn't defensive and even protecting her face, she doesn't know how to fight from behind.

 

[KingBroly]

The rematch is going to be good.

Automatic rematches don't happen, sadly. Ronda's gotta work her way back up or something like that.

 

[Paracelsus]

Thing is we have seen the superior striker v grappler match countless times over the years and a lot of the time you see the grappler picking their moments to maximise the chance of a takedown.

I mean Rousey's game plan consisted of CHARGE!

She started charging when she felt what a real left hand of a world class boxer is like. If you felt it in your cranium I'm sure you would rush to finish it with your best move as close as possible too. Ronda looked gassed at the end of round one, like she couldn't believe it.

 

[TTG]

I was watching on mute(dat Warriors game), so she looked to me like one of those women kick boxers that land a lot and amount to nothing in damage. Then round two starts and Ronda's mouth is open and panting and it doesn't look like this Holly girl is playing pattycake with her face anymore.

My question is, how dire did it look before that kick landed? Because paying half attention, I didn't really pick up on it until she was stumbling.

Guess who became even richier:

[Tubie]

Jesus Fucking Christ, I think Holly probably had a 80-90% on her left jab and hook all fight.

 

[Big Blue]

The EA Cover jinx is undefeated

Odell is still looking good.

Oof.

 

[Maintenance]

Last time I was surprised like this was in Weidman vs Silva 1.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

I didn't think there'd ever be a more satisfying UFC gif than Hendo dropping an H-Bomb on Bisping, but this is up there:

That's adversity knocking you the fuck out.

 

[The Main Event]

Off to the hospital

Off to moderate a Pokémon forum

 

[NomarTyme]

Dana is show feeling good not letting Ronda fight Tate fight instead of Holm. Fuck Dana and the Fritos bros for taking on the Reebok deal.

 

[SolidSnakex]

She got destroyed. As the competition level gets better in women's MMA she's going to get lapped. I saw nothing that indicates she would fare any better against Holm in a rematch. This was Cain/Lesnar or Jones/Shogun level destruction. She's not long for this sport. I bet she walks away within the year anyway.

But where does she go now? The speculation I had in the other thread was that she'd walk out of the UFC undefeated and boxing promoters would flood her with money and Hollywood would be knocking. Why would either of them be interested in her now?

 

[Skeyser]

And people think she'd destroy Floyd lololol

Shit doesn't go too well when she's not fighting beginners huh

 

[vypek]

Man give Holm a chance to have a career. I wouldn't wish that shit on anyone.

Ah, right the curse. Nevermind, EA. I do wish Holm to have continued success.

 

[RdN]

I'm happy that Ronda lost.

I can't stand her attitude.

I imagine UFC will want to schedule a rematch as soon as possible, though.

 

[prag16]

She's a 9/11 and Sandy Hook truther. People quite rightfully find that shit to be despicable.

Why does this shit have to make it into every thread.

I've been rooting against Rousey for totally unrelated reasons personally. The rematch should be good. You know Rousey will be serious, and come back hard with a lot less of the arrogance and overconfidence that likely hurt her this time.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Can't see Rousey doing anything different or much better to win a rematch.

Ronda won't show, just watch...

She'll probably try her hand at Hollywood and end up on some B-level SyFy series or something. She's a terrible actress.

God damn.

 

[Gr1mLock]

Once ever lol. layed out like a picnic blanket.

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

Gina was the better Fast & Furious woman anyways.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Dana better hope to god Jones and Connor have reigns as long as Spider because if not, he's in DEEEEEEEEEEEEP shit.

Don't you want this kind of outcome? in a real sport shouldn't a contender getting a win be a boon for the sport? think the Giants beating the undefeated Patriots.

 

[zewone]

I dunno, sorta looked like Holly downloaded the fuck out of Ronda lol

lol.

For sure. She executed Winklejohn's gameplan to a T.

 

[vypek]

.

What a clean, perfect picture. How are people getting these so fast?

Thats incredible.

 

[BadAss2961]

I'm not really convinced that Holly is a better boxer than Ronda, really.

A lesson not to sleep on an elite boxer.

[Chamber]

Nobody has a gif of that badly whiffed punch? Ronda was cooked as soon as that happened.

 

[Obliterator]

Can't see Rousey doing anything different or much better to win a rematch.

Neither can I, that was the best Holm has ever looked, period. Fucking perfect fight.

But it will still do MASSIVE business.

 

[Angelus Errare]

PUT HOLLY HOLM ON THE COVER, EA!

Why would you want to fuck up someone's career like that. The only person who can be on an EA cover and it empower him is Messi.

 

[Agnt]

WHEN HER COACH SAID SHE CAN BOX PROFESSIONALLY

 

[ironcreed]

I can't see a rematch after such a devastating loss. It might ruin Ronda for good to face her again.

 

[vypek]

Nobody has a gif of that badly whiffed punch? Ronda was cooked as soon as that happened.

I need to see this as well

I took it back in a later post but maybe I should go back to edit lol

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Holly exposed myth that was Ronda Rousey, Mike.

 

[zewone]

Can't see Rousey doing anything different or much better to win a rematch.

Huh?

Running in with your hands down? She could absolutely try a different gameplan in a rematch other than run into jabs.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Vegas on tilt!!

yas!

 

[Baby Milo]

this might have saved her brain

she would have caught an asswhopping in the ring

Yea this was no match at all, a rematch will only destroy Ronda's career forever.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

[Monster Zero]

The irony of her losing to a boxer is

WWE. Seriously. She'll make millions in WWE, she only pulls in a hundred thousand or so a fight now, she makes most of her money via sponsorship.

 

[UrokeJoe]

Has anyone checked on Joe Rogan? Hope he's okay.

 

[BadAss2961]

Nobody has a gif of that badly whiffed punch? Ronda was cooked as soon as that happened.

That was some Mayweather shit from Holm.

This wasn't an upset. Holly just outclassed her and most didn't see it coming.

 

[Frozenprince]

If the sport wasn't already fledgling for legitimate champions, yes. But they spent SOOOOOOOOO long and SOOOOOOOOOO much money hyping up a woman that finally got tested with a legitimate opponent and got destroyed. This is the problem boxing had. Yes you need upsets and for contenders to be legitimate. But you need strong, interesting champs and warrant the hype. Right now there is a lack of that in public perception.
