Holly Holm Signs with the UFC

That's not Ronda being stunned, that's Ronda taking a punch in slow motion.

When did I admit I don't watch MMA?

 

:: :bears:

 

If That's REALLY Your Idea of Getting Stunned, EVERY Fighter is "Stunned", Practically EVERY Time they Get Hitalm:...

Conveniently, your Video FAILS to Show What Ronda's IMMEDIATE Reaction Was to Being BEATEN to the Punch & Knocked on Her Heels...When You're BEATEN to the Punch, Throwing your POWER Hand (No Less), that's Likely to Happen...

"Stunned" is 1 Level Below Being TRULY "Hurt"...Rousey was NEVER Even Remotely in that Position & REED is Confident that Point would Illustrate ITSELF, if You Posted an Unedited Version of that Same, Exact Landed Shot...








REED:crafty:

 

Shane Made Floyd's KNEES DIP...

Big Difference from What Occurred in your Video...Rousey Would BREAK Your Stronger Typing Hand/Arm, for Suggesting as Much...




REED:notallthere:

 

EXACTLY, it's a fucking retarded assertion. That's why I stated it's simply Ronda taking a punch in slow motion, nothing more.

That's what taking a shot flush looks like, there's no stunning going on. Of course your body is going to react to getting hit flush, due to the laws of physics, it's going to move slightly or lose balance or whatever, doesn't mean you're stunned.

 

Are you going to continue to sit here and be a bullshitting cunt, perpetuating this utter fucking bullshit of Ronda being stunned?

Or are you really that stupid that you honestly believe she was stunned?

If it's the latter, do you not find it strange that not one person agrees with you? ::

 

holm is not that good. she'll get thrown in seconds.

 

I don't think Godfather thinks Holms can stop Rousey's takedown. He's just betting Holms can land a KO shot before getting thrown.

 

And that's been partly my point all along too. Rousey is hittable enough with punches, but Holm can't really punch. So given how unlikely it is that she'll KO Rousey before getting taken down, it's extremely likely she'll get taken down and armbar'd in round 1.

 

yea, it's not like holm is blasting through her opponents in mma. she didnt do that in boxing and she hasn't really done that in mma either. she's pretty methodical and i dont see rousey walking in straight to a punch and getting knocked out. plus, holm is not very young. if it goes to the ground, which it will, it's over.

 

And every single one of her MMA fights has gone to at least the 2nd round. And every single opponent to date has been a virtual unknown. Jan Finney would be the exception but only to long time women's MMA fans.

So you either think Rousey's chin is worse than ANY of these hacks that Holms has faced. Or you think Holms can defend Rousey's takedowns.

If it's either, you are extremely delusional.

As Joony said, Holms has not blasted thru her MMA opposition.

Ronda, on the other, has literally destroyed the absolute best of the division.

 

Against scrubs, and how many of those wins were via punches?

 

Good points, and given how much MMA Anthony watches, I find it very hard to believe he is this misguided or delusional to believe Holm would beat Rousey. I can only think he's bigging her up so if Ronda beats her, it will show even a beastly boxer gets battered against an MMA fighter :kidcool:

 

i know, but i'm saying, she doesnt blast through her opponents in the first round. in fact, none of her finishes came within the first round.

 

Holy shit, I didn't realise she beat Nikki Knudsen, I might have to reconsider the Rousey fight now. Knudsen is the one that choked out Windy Thorn.

 

Anthony's completely missing the point.

Holms has knocked opponents out. No one is debating that.

But she isn't dropping them with the first one or two punches she lands.

IF scrubs are able to last 5+ minutes with Holms, then it's probably safe to assume Ronda can as well.

And here's the point, if Holms is in the cage with Ronda for 5 minutes she will, at some point, end up on her back. And then it's over.

Your contention is that Holms will land a fight-ending punch before Ronda gets a clinch/takedown. Unfortunately their MMA histories don't support that.

That's why we're continuing this discussion.

 

Dude, you're just plain out of your mind.

Rousey hadn't even been fighting professionally for a full year before she absolutely victimized Meisha Tate.

Holm has been fighting MMA longer than Rousey and she's yet to face anyone near as talented as Kaufman, Tate, Carmouche, or McMann.

The problem with Holm is that she was only a part time MMA fighter until Rousey set the world on fire in the UFC women's debut against Carmouche. Shortly after that she gave up boxing to train MMA full time.

THAT is why she's faced crap opposition. Otherwise she could have jumped from boxing to Strikeforce in 2011 (her first MMA fight) and faced solid competition already.

 

Yes, precisely. That's exactly the point. If the scrubs are able to take her punches just fine, and end up getting stopped by some big sloppy kicks to the mid section, and knees, why on earth does Anthony think Holm will knock Rousey TFO with a punch before she can even take Holm down? :atu:

"Dude are you serious right now?" should be directed at Anthony and only Anthony, his opinion on this is insane.

 

Truthfully, GF is tops when it comes to picking MMA fights.

So I'm worried he might have fallen and hit his head.

He can't be right, can he?

 

Does GF have the best pick rate here for MMA fights?

He obviously knows MMA and watches a lot of it, that's why I find it hard to believe he is for real with this, and why I suggested there must be an ulterior motive for this absurdity.
