    Well that's impossible. It made more money this year than any year in UFC history.

    And they still have 2 potentially record breaking PPVs before the end of the year.

    Watch what happens when the Rousey fight gets close. And then Aldo-McGregor?

    Yeah, I have been thankful about the break. It was just nonstop shows all year. And it's going to end with a bang

    WOW!!!...

    Fantastic Interview by Meisha...On 1 Hand, Ronda's BEATEN Her Twice, but on the Other Hand, UFC PROCLAIMED Meisha its # 1 Contender...That Being Said, it's SHITTY to Make Meish Face Better Fighters than the CHAMPION Is, as She Stated...

    Meisha's SUGGESTING UFC's Protecting Ronda, Which is Comical Considering Ronda HAS OWNED Meisha Twice, but Again, REED APPLAUDS Meish for Pointing Out the Blatant HYPOCRISY in UFC's Handling of Fighters...

    Fuuuuuuuuurther Evidence MMA Really ISN'T Any Different from Boxing in "the WAY They're Ran"....

    Looks Like Ronda's Mother is Becoming a "Pageant Mom"...

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2015/10/14/ronda-rouseys-mother-blasts-ufc-champs-trainer-as-a-terrible-coach/



    REED Can't Speak on Edmond Either Way, but for Ronda's Mother to PUBLICLY Speak Against Dude, IN SPITE of the Undeniable, Life Altering (For Mom Too) SUCCESS he's Had w/Ronda, ISN'T Smart...It's Also SAD...

    He has had no impact with her. In fact, he is hindering her. She would be even better if she actually trained with other people like she use too. Her striking is shit, despite what people say. She swings like a tough man competitor. Btw, I have actually trained in Edmonds gym. The guy is a complete asshole, just like ronda's mom said. Btw, the person most responsible for rondas success in mma is her mom

    So based on this rationale, Aldo should have been fighting Mendes or Edgar again rather than McGregor back when that fight was originally scheduled, right?

    LOL. That really is absurd. Like Aldo rematching Mendes or Edgar, no one gives two shits about seeing a Rousey-Tate third fight when the first two were absolute one-sided ass whuppings. At least Aldo-Mendes II and Aldo-Edgar were close, competitive fights.

    Back to back good weekends for Poland my friend. Held becomes a Bellator Champion this Friday and then Joanna gets to show her skills on MMA's biggest stage (A Ronda Rousey Card).

    So Ronda shouldnt fight Tate again because she already beat her. But Aldo should fight Edgar and Mendes again despite already beating them?

    Im not sure if you are agreeing with me or disagreeing with me.

    Nothing worth mentioning. He had his little clique and looked down on anyone who wasnt a full member there. I would go just to roll with a few guys once in a while. I only had about two interactions with him.

    Anthony- Who you picking in this one? At 14-1, I'm probably going to roll the dice on Holm. Also, it doesn't get talked about but Holm is training with Greg Jackson. If anyone can devise a game plan for a tall rangy fighter to keep a grappler at distance, it's Greg Jackson.

    Holm's boxing ability will help her if Rousey is dumb enough to trade with her. If Ronda gets hands on her it's a wrap. If she lunges in she could get KO'd by a jab Kimbo Slice style.

    From a skill standpoint, Rousey is a primitive boxer. But she is obviously heavy handed. That will go a long way in women's MMA even against supposedly more refined strikers like Zingano, Davis and Holm.

    By the way, Joanna the gruesome Pole, probably has the most effective boxing in MMA right now. Not just among chicks but in all of MMA.

    her boxing in no way had any effect on the zingano fight or the Davis fight. In fact, I thought Davis landed the more effective punches until Ronda took her down.

    Zingano no. But the Davis fight was essentially ended by a Rousey right hand. That's not even debatable.

    I know what you are saying, but i think Ronda's Transition to that take down was so fucking fast that we really couldnt tell how she really reacted or if it had any effect at all.

    IMO, these days Ronda only goes for the takedown if she cant win the standup game.

    Her last 3 fights have been so quick that I don't think we've gotten to see what her game plans have been.

    When the Bout was 1st Signed, REED Said he Thinks Ronda's COMPETITIVE ARROGANCE Will Lead to Her @ Least ATTEMPTING to Beat Holm at her Own Game (Boxing)...

    It's The ONLY Point of Intrigue this Bout Holds...

    The "Technique" is LAUGHABLE, for Sure...

    She Always Does that Head-to-the-Side Bit (Touching the Left Shoulder), When Hitting Mitts or Punching @ Air...Is that Ronda's Idea of "Head Movement"...Honestly, She's a TAD More "Sophisticated" than a Special Olympian, in the Delivery of her Shots...

    Yeah man Rousey's boxing is semi-retarded, but she's a strong girl. That said, at $10, I have some on Holm even though I think she's sorta shit and will get squashed. But u never know.
