Why is it that when a fighter takes down an opponent and gets free shots at the opponents face they usually miss? It looks like Holm missed a couple of easy punches when Rousey was on the ground unless this is an illusion

THey are usually rushing to get the fight stopped as quickly as possible. YOu don't have to be precise in that situation.

Probably just in such a rush to get there and take advantage of an opportunity that they aim poorly

Saw a few posts here and a good number of websites already mocking Ronda saying "and she's supposed to beat Floyd", or "HA, She can never beat Floyd."

Did no one catch that she trains at the same gym as Robbi Lawler? The same Robbi Lawler that might as well be a descendant of Kratos.

Holly knows how to defend and counter a the now "MMA traditional" stance. It's not quite a boxers stance, not quite a kick boxers stance and not quite a jui jitsu stance.

Floyd would have died during the moment when Ronda grappled with Holly and as much as Floyd wraps himself into his opponents Ronda would have an easy opportunity to take him down and end the fight.


Aside from that big props to Holly for just being the better Striker. It was like watching Mighty Mouse pick apart an opponent. The speed difference was clear.

Unfortunately for Holly she will not be getting movie deals like Ronda or asked to be guest starring everywhere. Ronda is an Icon. She made womens MMA Relevant to UFC and to other media outlets. She was the 1st, she'll always be the champion of the people.

My initial guess was that Holm missed intentionally. Because a couple of solid lands from that distance, when Ronda is in that position, could have killed her...or at least given Ronda severe brain damage. In other words, Holm and some of these fighters do have mercy deep down

I think the real difference is the UFC is a league. Ronda is in no position to say rematch negotiations failed, or chalk up the loss to a lucky punch after doing blow in a Japanese hotel room and fucking the housekeeping.

You need a rematch or the stink of this loss will follow her forever, and all the money goes with it.

She can't beat Floyd bruh. You can write a dissertation but Ronda's stand up game is absolute trash. Floyd would murderize Ronda's face.
