Lmao. Even if we say she's multidimensional, what good is "dozens of ways" to beat him when she'd be knocked out cold before she could even utilize any other methodologies?The point is the opposite. Floyd has one way to beat the complete shit out of her. Ronda has dozens of ways to beat Floyd. Floyd is extremely one dimensional. If he doesn't get a hit on her or does but it doesn't KO her, he's finished. He'd be on his ass and either KO'd (via ground and pound) or submitted.
Just like the 47 year old Randy Couture when he faught a professional boxer?
She'd have to be a world class wrestler and at least a purple belt in BJJ to have a chance against an expert MALE boxer like Mayweather, she's neither of those.
Once again, she's an expert in Judo. She'd have to get through Mayweather's punches to even have a chance at being effective. Judo sucks.
Because THANK YOU EDMOND.
Because Ronda fans want to feel like they can still win at something.

It's straight up delusional.
Lol, no she wouldn't. A white belt can submit a professional boxer.
Lol, no she wouldn't. A white belt can submit a professional boxer.
Nope, but it gives her an advantage that Floyd doesn't have.
Legit lol. Stop with the hyperbole, you're bad as it is.

Please post a gif of Ronda hitting a single leg on someone.
Let's move from the Mayweather nonsense, onto a new, more philosophical discussion:
Is Dana White....
a) An idiot, feeding Ronda to a striking monster like Nunes, for her first fight back.
b) Smart, as he was pretty sure what would happen, and just wanted to get Ronda out of the way.
c) A pushover, Ronda threatened to retire, if her first fight wasn't for the title, and he caved.
d) Shocked, as we all are, that Ronda somehow came back from her year break, with as bad or worse stand up than what got her bodied by Holm. It was impossible, right?
e) All, none, or a combination.
Yes. He just spent millions on marketing her comeback as a solo show, bending to every demand she has including not doing the very media that drives sales and buzz, just to see them get egg on their face when she falls flat on their face. Even double, they look like morons for not promoting a fighter who will be a household name the very next day.no way can he be that stupid to think Ronda was going to win this espescially after Nunes vs Tate.

Jeez. You guys are incredible.
Dana wanted the belt back on Ronda, reclaiming her status in one fight... For that to happen, she had to go through Nunes. Tough opponent, but most thought Ronda could pull it off.. Nunes is a beast now, but she's been beatable in the past. Not to discredit Nunes, but Ronda has regressed after realizing that she's far from invincible.Let's move from the Mayweather nonsense, onto a new, more philosophical discussion:

A boxing match and a fight are two different things. I'd still put money on Rousey in a fight with Floyd.
Closest thing I could find.
I'm going to say B) and C), no way can he be that stupid to think Ronda was going to win this espescially after Nunes vs Tate.

Damn, bad lose for Rhonda.
I feel like this is completely on her coaching staff, though. Any good trainer, even the arm-chair kind, would have told Rhonda not to stand up with Amanda. The way she initiated the fight seemed like she either wanted to prove something, or was convinced that she COULD go blow-for-blow with Nunes.
It would have been great to see her utilize her style in the fight, win or lose. I hope she switches coaches and returns.
A boxing match and a fight are two different things. I'd still put money on Rousey in a fight with Floyd.
a) I think Dana really underestimated Nunes' power and precision and d) how the fuck hasn't Ronda improved her stand up, at all? She ate so many punches in so little time. Where was the defense? How do you go into a fight with a known striker like Nunes and not have any ability to evade punches? Where were the counter punches?
I think people exaggerate how much Dana cares about the wins and losses. Say what you want about the UFC but they have never really been known to protect fighters (hello Bellator and MVP) and make the matchups that will make the most money. Ronda's comeback fight against the champ Nunes ia what would have made the most money, so it's the matchup they made. On top of that Dana has a potential new star on his hands in Nunes.
I think you're right, but not in this case. I think he thought Ronda had a good chance of winning last night. Ronda's comeback was big, yes, but a Rousey vs. Holm 2 would've been even bigger if she won last night. Even if that never materialized, having Ronda and Conor as champs in 2017 was Dana's wettest dream.
But, imagine a scenario where Rousey wins last night and Holm wins the 145lb title in Feb. Holy Fucking Shit that would've been a massive PPV if Ronda went to 145 for the rematch, and a shot at having both belts. 😳
I don't understand why Ronda was the favorite to win after Holm completely exposed her and she stuck with Edmond who I can only assume either has some sort of dirt on her that keeps him employed or he has access to brain slugs.

Let this sink in for a second, she is a 135 lb. woman. Think of your bench press max as a man, think of Floyd's...she weighs at MOST like half his bench press max.
So she takes him down, and? He would grab her wrists and softly move her aside, so he could get up and continue toying with her.
