Bruh this is still true til this dayThis is one of the funniest threads I have read in the 17 years I have been coming to this site.
The funniest thing is those that were championing for Rousey haven't said shit since.
Those that knew better didn't have to say shit.
The bumping of this is so timely considering she pulled this crying wanting to kill herself shit.
Love this.
You don't understand. I'm coming from the angle of a guy that has SEEN female MMA fighters spar with men. I'm not guessing here. Rousey has trained at our school.I wasnt there that week but heard she rolled with quite a few guys that are way bigger than lil ass mayweather. In this Holm fight,look at her stance.Compare it to the Boxing stance. Boxers have alot more weight on their front foot and they aren't facing their opponent like Holm is. Holms stance is much more open which gives her that lateral movement to avoid Rhonda's clinch. Its clear as day to someone who trains. Honestly this whole argument is comparable to a dude that played HS football and watches football every week and arguing with women who swear the Niners are the best team in Football because they like their uniforms. Holms presented a totally different challenge than Mayweather would.
Nah man, this is like people who know how it would go down arguing with people who want to think this chick is gonna beat a male pro fighter 20 pounds heavier than her. You said you heard that she fought some dudes bigger than her at your gym... Ok, but you didn't see it, so you can't say for sure if those guys were the caliber of fighter thatt Mayweather is. ...and trust, with her being who she is, and camera phones being everywhere, if she was beating the shit out of male professional boxers (actually fighting, like trying to beat each other... punches to the head), it would be on video, and Dana White would have had that shit blasted out everywhere. What better marketing would there be than that? Floyd beats Rousey...
its not only boxing - she lacks basic foot work! she can't slide or pivot - if she wrestled for a year she would be much much betterOdd that it's her precise lack of boxing skills that have led to her getting KTFO both times
Training with a person, sparing with a person, and fighting a person are three different worlds.
ninja this is like an epiphany.
training= zero competition, youre just trying to figure shit out.
sparring= trying to get your techniques to work on a real person, competition is present, but not super important.
fighting= total competition. you aint trying to get killed.
aint nothin ever going to be said on this forum thats truer than what you spit.
Damn!!! Rhonda Woozy at it again . Punching people in the fist with her face.knock knock

that is so disrespectful to Larry Holms
this is what I can't get... Rhonda is a real fighter with glaring holes in her skillsetsFam I've done all three and if the difference between training and sparing is jumping the Grand Canyon, the difference between sparing in figthing is jumping out of the deepest trench in the ocean and landing on the moon. It's that big of a difference.
Anyone who hasn't fought anyone WHO KNOWS HOW TO FIGHT- either in the ring or the street- need to fall the fuck back and stay in their lane in these threads. Getting blasted in the face by someone who trying to put there fist through your skull as you're trying to do the same is a paradigm shifting moment that I know first hand.
*two cents *
this is what I can't get... Rhonda is a real fighter with glaring holes in her skillsets
she has lost really tough fights before and learned from them - she is a great olympic competitor (I know a few guys and a girl that got permanent injuries during trials for the US judo team) - for her thrive and medal is elite and takes a tough mind.
so after all of her time off and the experience how does she not watch the Holms video and see the problems?
How does she not pay attention to kata while training on striking?
How does she not try to learn more?
Everything else - strategy etc I blame on coaching
dumbassEven after her loss I stand by my prediction. Personally, I hate the comparison because its just a way to drop Mayweather down a notch.I'd rather they compare her to a white boxer. That said, in a Boxing match,Rousey wouldn't last 1 min.In a MMA match Rousey is a clear favorite.I totally understand why many of you would think different,but my years of experience in a really good MMA school in which Rousey has visited and trained in the past gives me much more insight. We've had professional boxer dabble in MMA and its a TOTALLY different sport.
She looks like she is doing some impressionistic or praise dancing.knock knock

Check Instagram. The entire fight fits in one video.Anybody got a replay of the fight
You thinking she should have had a warm up fight? Would UFC have allowed her to fight a no hoper with no striking skills? Or are you saying retirement since the mental was gone? She would have never lived that down. Getting ran out of the sport after one loss. Despite my disdain for her arrogance and her trying to live off the Floyd name, she is a true fighter. I agree with your assessment but I don't think she had a choice Boss. It had to end up this way. She must have worked on adjustments but Holms beat that self belief out of her after media hype had taken it to unsustainable levels. It is what it is.I believe she did all that but as soon as she stepped into the ring and heard that bell she had flashbacks from when Holly was kicking the shit out of her. She should've never took this fight, she's be basically in hiding this past year and then couldn't/wouldn't even do a press conference so that tells you she wasn't mentally ready to get back in the ring
