UFC 193 |Ronda Rousey vs. Holly Holm

Maybe, but she was an obvious cheater all along. She's as obvious as it gets in terms of anabolic steroid effects in women. I don't give her credit for beating natural women fighters when she's been taking male hormones all along.

If she fights in the UFC with strict drug testing during the training camps, I'd still pick Ronda to win. At 140 or 145. That's assuming Ronda wants to make a comeback and keep fighting.

 

i base rousey's dominance on her ability to win and win in a dominant fashion. i have no problems with those who rate cyborg higher. not sure where this ufc koolaid reference is coming from. as for carano, i dont think she was considered a 'dominant' fighter. she was just fun to watch and was appealing to upstart women's mma.

 

So are these two having a rematch?

 

She lost it the minute she got popped for taking steroids. While I hate PED use in men, I think that hatred is a billion times greater for chicks.

 

Oh I know Dana wants an immediate rematch. But I'm curious if Ronda does. I keep reading where the "rematch is confirmed" but Rousey has yet to chime in to my knowledge.

I'd be shocked if she wanted an immediate rematch.

 

REED Would Be Shocked Too, but WHY Would Dana Go On Record w/This, if he HADN'T Discussed it w/Rousey 1st???...





REED:dunno:

 

I know. That's why I was hoping someone had a quote or comment from Rousey. Dana is close with Rousey like he was/is with Liddell. I am certain he's talked to her, and I would guess the conversation of a rematch came up.

But damn, if Rousey really wants a rematch, she should be making some noise herself.

 

Here's a question for the class. Can you cite any examples of a fighter getting brutally knocked out and then winning an immediate rematch? Be it MMA or boxing.

 

& Run the Risk of RUINING Arguably his BIGGEST Money Maker, Forever???...





REED:dunno:

 

She said she felt exhausted prior to the Holm fight, plus had family problems too. After such a vicious knockout, you would think she'd take some time out to recover, plus she has thinks to work on so maybe even more time off would be best suited?

 

I didn't realise they are remaking Road House.

It would be interesting to see a rematch and how it plays out. Would Holm go in to the rematch as the betting favourite, in your opinion?

 

What made you decide to bet on Holm? Were you confident she'd beat Ronda?

 

As I stated before the fight, I put money on Holm. I got it when she opened as. 14-1 dog. With those kind of odds it was worth the risk considering, as you said, holm's experience and her training at the best gym in the sport.

 

Rousey planned to make the Roadhouse movie then return to fighting in July anyway.

If Holm were hotter he'd toss Rousey to the side in a NY minute.

 

forget 135, cyborg's no longer even trying to make 140 like she was supposed to for her next fight. the rousey fight is never happening imo. neither is holm vs cyborg. if rousey's on the shelf, i expect tate to get the next shot.

 

For what? The UFC Women's Bantamweight title is far more important, lucrative and potentially legacy-making than ANYTHING Cyborg can do at 145 in Invicta.

If Cyborg beat Holm handily at 135, she would be legendary. And that's not an exaggeration.
