I can't fathom why Ronda fell into Holm's gameplan despite talking Holm up for months about how she doesn't match up well against boxers and Holm was awesome, etc. Really dumb.

 

[Heel]

Edmond says he makes 200k bets on Ronda fights. LOL

Looks like he just legitimized his bankruptcy.

 

[Chamber]

Another Ronda Rousey fight you can fit in one gif.

 

[mreddie]

Dat shot

 

[Ninja Scooter]

but fucking DEAD!

You mean

Rousey isn't the brightest fighter in the world, if you haven't noticed.

The question of the hour

Does Dana White show up at the post fight press conference?

 

[BadAss2961]

She resembled him in there tonight, oblique kicks and all. A little Floyd too.

 

[Fitts]

You mean brought us "shad face".

Sherdog has had few shining moments. That photoshop thread was one of those times.

 

[The Lone Courier]

So we have a new queen.

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

I am sooooooooo glad she got destroyed.

 

[charsace]

Damn, Cyborg would had shredded Rousey.

No, she wouldn't have. Holm is a much better technical striker who uses movement. Cyborg runs forward and gets tagged. She almost lost the Gina fight because of it. She got mauled by that kick boxer when she tried to press forward relentlessly.

 

[Pristine_Condition]

I guess Holm being on Dana White's team is out of the question? Forgive me if thats not a possibility I'm new to this

Holm is not a good talker. Rousey, like her or hate her, was a media phenom. She promoted like a beast.

 

[EthanC]

Jesus Christ, are you 14? Because only 14 year olds talk like this.

Talks like one of those fans of fake wrestling. It's hilarious.

 

[Yaari]

Learning how to fall is Judo 101 . Come on Ronda.

 

[ironcreed]

Looking like that LA Noire gif:

 

[zewone]

This has to be good long term. Some interesting fights coming up.

You mean the rematch to Ronda where she lose to an armbar?

Yeah, that's pretty interesting.

If for some reason Ronda isn't her next opponent, Holm hasn't looked very good prior to tonight. So yeah, i'd like to see her against some top competitors like Tate or Zigano.

 

[Megatron]

The ref steps in and stops the fight. Learn the sport before mouthing off!

Obviously. I saw the ref stop her. But not before she landed three hits on the unconscious head of Rousey. If someone is down you should let them get up not slam people in the head when they're unconscious. Ridiculous that she needs a ref to stop her. If the ref hadn't stopped her would she still be hitting her? I mean why stop with only three hits? May as well keep hitting her until she's unrecognizable.

 

[-MD-]

So we have a new queen.

And she's likable!

 

[SRTtoZ]

Bones knows

Bones probably Boned.

 

[DeadlyVirus]

I've never seen a fighter look as bad as Rhonda did when Holm slipped Rousey's left hook making her stumble. Ronda got so thoroughly outclassed, I don't see how she wins in a rematch.

Anderson Silva vs Forest Griffin

 

[ChosenPredator]

She resembled him in there tonight, oblique kicks and all. A little Floyd too.

THATS where i remember that kick from god damn, that makes it click well in my head now jones uses that kick often.

 

[Host Samurai]

Now Miesha can win the belt

 

[-ShadowEmbracer-]

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.

Not in a MMA Fight. Holly Holms is an MMA Fighter with Top Notch Striking. I could fill a Museum of picture where Floyd grabs an opponent to avoid being hit or to delay a fight.

 

[Paracelsus]

Learning how to fall is Judo 101 . Come on Ronda.

She got a kick that could cause a concussion, she was out before landing and fell like a ragdoll, that's it.

 

[Baby Milo]

range control and timing is a motherfucker

 

[Obliterator]

She resembled him in there tonight, oblique kicks and all. A little Floyd too.

She said Jones was one of her main training partners for this fight. It certainly showed.

And soon Jones will smash DC and get his belt back as well.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[Dmented]

If Edmond isn't kicked to the curb after this... yikes.

 

[hersheyfan]

Damn! Rousey dropped like a ton of bricks, that kick was nasty.

Maybe in her next fight Rousey will go back to more of a judo/jitz game plan, trying to take the fight to Holm standing was a really, really dumb idea (don't blame her though, as it worked against everybody else she fought).

 

[TrumanBurbank]

I blame @travisbrowneMMA

Shots fired by Rothwell. God damn

 

[Fox318]

Can we stop talking about Floyd.

Fucking Christ.

 

[Suite Pee]

...Because that's the rules he's working within

 

[RedSquare]

No, she wouldn't have. Holm is a much better technical striker who uses movement. Cyborg runs forward and gets tagged. She almost lost the Gina fight because of it. She got mauled by that kick boxer when she tried to press forward relentlessly.

Uh... Cyborg's loss wasn't a mauling.

 

[NomarTyme]

The question of the hour

Does Dana White show up at the post fight press conference?

God I hope so.

 

[Instro]

Didn't watch it, but not surprised by the outcome. Ronda has fucking awful standup, and has not business trying to strike with someone like Holm. Loving the gifs lol.

 

[HariKari]

Ronda would have to catch Floyd. Not happening. Not without her getting constantly tagged.

 

[ISOM]

Anderson Silva vs Forest Griffin

Oh yeah lol

 

[SRTtoZ]

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.

Is this a meme?

 

[Turin]

range control and timing is a motherfucker

Damn straight.

 

[UrokeJoe]

I'll give it to Joe he made no excuses for RR during the fight or after.

Nice.

 

[ElyrionX]

Just watched the match. Hahaha fuck Ronda.

 

[smurfx]

Just as sweet.



HOLY SHIT, I hope she's ok.

lots of fighters usually get taken to the hospital when they get knocked out. usually to do more tests just to be safe. doesn't mean she is in great danger.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

That's boxing from what I've seen. Good strikes. Ronda wasn't ready. CLEARLY!

 

[Brofist]

Naa

She will be more popular than ever, and it's all about the build-up to a rematch, if she can make that climb.

Doubt it. Her career was built on her dominance. She may be able to pull it together for a win, but she'll never regain the aura she had.

 

[Chamber]

Now Miesha can win the belt

I don't want my Miesha anywhere near that monster breh.

 

[Trey]

I'm with you friend. Disgusting and barbaric. Human cockfighting I say.

Major difference being people can give consent. Also, they're human.

MMA is pretty much a bloodsport, so you either take it or leave it.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Can we stop talking about Floyd.

Fucking Christ.

I'm sure Ronda will now.

 

[ldcommando]

I blame @travisbrowneMMA

Shots fired by Rothwell. God damn
