thanks for reading

I won't say I'm not shocked but if you watched some of Holms prior fights she has a devastating round house kick with a long reach. You can't rule out anyone with a one strike weapon like that.

Now Rousey gets to fulfill her dream of being an actress/professional wrestler.

I take it you like boxing

I like champions who conduct themselves as such, Ron was too cool to even shake hands before the fight..

Look at how sloppy this is!! This is who they billed as the best fighter EVER?! What a crock of ****..

And look at how precise this is

and

Look at how Holm conducted herself after the fight... Rhonda doesn't have class and humility like that, talk about getting upstaged..

I hate to say I told you so.... I'm not taking anything from holly holm, she is the champ in both worlds but when I heard the UFC say RRR was the best women fighter ever I was like kiss my *** I have 8 world titles in 4 different weight classes and I defined them at the same time... I retired because No women would fight me and I don't call myself the best.... I never care who wins are loses because you have to know that you can loses to truly prepare to win I'm happy then a mother fu*ker RRR got her big mouth *** whooped!!! Kicking biting punching are just plain old fighting don't say you came whoop my *** unless you have ready done it!!

So I guess everyone will go back to not really giving a **** about MMA and especially Women's MMA?

Judging by Dana White's fight to hold back tears during post fight interviews....the latter certainly.

Are you a Mayweather fan?

Also, this is not the end of women's MMA lol. Everyone will want to see if Holm got lucky or is that good.

Not to mention the Holm/Rousey rematch.

Right the rematch will be huge - and then no one will care anymore.

Women's MMA is a sideshow that survived on the premise that Rousey was a "once in a forever athlete" as Dana White put it - and as we all saw Saturday night, that's not the case.

The long term prospects for women's MMA are bleak - as they always were. It just happened sooner rather than later.

Rousey should have continuously attempted takedowns until she got holm down.
Dumb idea to stand with her.
I expect rousey to take her down and submit her in the rematch

Pretty much my approach with your mom. And boy does she submit.

Came here to make a mom joke, but I see cl has it covered. Carry on.

 

[candrew]

LOL - what a sweetheart.

Don't think I've ever seen an interview from a professional athlete with such sincerity and humility. How can you not root for her? If you listen to her demeanor and didn't know what sport she competed in you'd probably make about 20 guesses before MMA.

Just one major problem.....she commits the ultimate female athlete sin.......

Not hot.

Yep. Rousey will not stand in the rematch and it will be a first round submission.

Did I read that Floyd Mayweather has offered to train Rousey?
