    Is it me or does it seem Ronda actually actually likes Tate's boyfriend. It seems like this whole thing stems more from Jealousy than anything. Ronda has a crush on tate's boyfriend and this how she acts. This is just my opinion.

    I don't think so. I honestly think she is just trying to be a bad ass and completely make Tate her bitch.

    But I couldn't agree more completely with Reed. It is utter horseshit that Rousey squared up with Hallman and got in his face.

    Rousey is trying toooo hard to look tough. As Reed said, she doesn't need to try. She already destroyed Tate. She could walk around without saying or doing anything and still be the most feared chick on the show.

    In all honesty, Rousey comes off as a poorly adjusted adult with anger issues and a significant chip on her shoulder. It's probably what makes her as good as she is in the cage.

    I can't wait to see her mother guest coaching on the show this week.

    BINGO!! I dont even know if i can blame her. Lets remember this is a woman that didnt speak until the age of 6. But she just doesnt seem to understand the concept of being an adult. which is why i think she likes Tate's man. That is how a child treats a crush.

    REED Thinks Ronda's Envious of the RELATIONSHIP Meisha Tate has w/Ol' Boy...Tate's Said as Much Herself...Apparently, She's Been w/Dude for 7 YEARS or So...They're a "Cute" MMA Couple...

    Wouldn't Surprise REED @ All if it's HARD for Ronda to KEEP a Man...

    Also, Meisha's a HOT Chick...Rousey's Hot Too, but Tate's HIGHER LEVEL Hotness....Despite Ronda's Success, She's ENVIOUS of Meisha Tate...That's Really THE ONLY Explanation for the Level of CONTEMPT Ronda has, in that Regard...

    Undoubtedly, You've Seen the Same Specials & Features on Ronda Rousey that REED has, & MORE...Her Father's SUICIDE, Growing Up w/a Speech Impediment, Being the "Big, MUSCULAR" Girl in School....

    Ronda's an ANGRY Broad for Certain...Even w/her Level of Success, she Probably Still has more "Bad" Days than "Good" 1's...As Stated Earlier, it Wouldn't Surprise REED @ All if Ronda had Problems KEEPING a Boyfriend...

    Nonetheless, @ SOME Point, She Needs to Take SATISFACTION in the FACT she's Overcome Family Turmoil, Teasing, etc., & Carved a Place for Herself HISTORICALLY Speaking...Ronda's Mother was a Martial Arts PIONEER...Rousey's Followed a Similar Path & Taken it to a HIGHER Level...She's Even Beating EVERYBODY w/the Signature Move DRILLED Into her by her Mother...How Cool is THAT???!!!...

    Mom was an ANTAGONISTIC Sort Also...She Said She Used to Walk Around Judo Tournaments, Kicking Soon-to-be Opponents in the Back of the Leg, Telling them She was Gonna BREAK Their Arms, 1nce it was Time to Hit the Mat...

    Ronda was RAISED by a MEAN Bitch, Which has Apparently Made her a MEAN Bitch...Hopefully she Learns to CHANNEL That Shit Though, & NOT Carry it Around in EVERYDAY Life...

    Well, you didn't say you think she'll win, just that you are rooting for her to win.

    But, there is no way in hell she will win. This isn't an incredible field, but a 1-3 fighter isn't going to beat two more of the girls in a row.

    Baszler and Modaferri sucking dick and losing to these novices is an embarrassment and imo it is hurting women's mma legitimacy.

    On the other hand, it probably isn't hurting its popularity which is more important.

    Really liked posts 59 and 60 above.

    A novice? Rakoczy has 35 professional boxing matches and has held a handful of world titles. She's got a longer combat history than any other chick on the show.

    Novice.....LOL. Rakoczy might have the best boxing in women's MMA.

    And Stephen Thompson has a 100 fights, same with Cung Le, same with every wrestler.

    Rakoczy is a novice mma fighter and trying to paint her any other way is really straining. She's 1-3 for a reason.

    I've got $100 to anyone's $50 that she doesn't win this. (haha...I hope the semi's haven't already happened and she's matched up with Duke in the finals and one of you knows it)

    Hilarious. So based on your definition of a novice in MMA, Ronda Rousey was a novice when she beat Meisha Tate, right?

    In some ways, but Rousey wasn't 1-3 and was rated. We all know that world class grapplers tend to become world class mma fighters WAY before world class boxers do (assuming some have, which hasn't even been the case).

    Tell us, did you have 1-3 Rakoczy rated? Do you now? Are you putting up $50 betting on her against my $100?

    Yeah, didn't think so. Hilarious.

    Without wanting to over analyse her, Rousey is just an utter twat. Really quite a hideous, dislikeable person.

    Her tough guy act is literally laughable. She looks like a little kid. The constant pouting and mean mugging. She's like a walking joke.

    She makes Nick Diaz and Michael Bisping look like cool guys.

    During Last Weeks Episode, She LITERALLY Said "We Didn't START it, but we'll FINISH It"....Sounded like Some CHEESY, CHILDISH Line from a BAD 80's Flick...

    Rousey is hot; Tate is hot. I really like how Rousey doesn't give a shit about appearing sans makeup.

    The editing on the 'mom visits' episode made Rousey look more likable.

    I wish Tate was as good a fighter as Rousey. It would make the tension they generate more meaningful.

    David Grant looked very solid against Fisette.

    The Complete OPPOSITE of Meisha Tate, who Seems to ALWAYS Be Made Up, in Tights, w/those Jugs of Hers Nice & PROMINENT...REED Digs BOTH of them...

    Rousey's Mother Seems like a COMPLETE Bitch...Having Said that, Considering the ERA in Which She Made her Name in Combative Sports, Women HAD to Be Bitches, to Be Taken SERIOUSLY...Rousey was More Likable Because She's Been CONDITIONED...She KNOWS Not to Fuck w/her Mom...

    agREED on Wishing Tate was a Better FIGHTER...There's GENUINE Contempt btwn the 2 of them...The Type of REAL Animosity Women's COMBAT Sports Desperately Needs...In General, the Desire to Watch 2 Women Duke it Out ISN'T There....But If You Know Both Bitches HATE Each Other, Why Not???...Put a Decent Fight or 2 on the Undercard & UFC has a Successful PPV...

    The BEST Thing for the Promotion would Be for Tate to WIN...Or @ Least Take Ronda the Distance, Shit, Even PAST the 1st Round...IMPROVE Upon her 1st Fight w/Rousey, Basically...

    I get the impression this show won't be great for Rousey's career or future success of the division.

    While it does build some heat for the finale, it probably hurt her appeal in the long haul and she's the only marketable entity in that sorry division.

    eh. She reminds me of Brock Lesnar's attitude. Which can sell well if done right.

    I suppose, but the problem is none of her matchups are compelling at all. Brock had appeal far beyond being an ornery guy.

    A hero with villains that aren't credible is still sellable.

    A villain with heroes that aren't credible isn't so much.

    As long as Ronda keeps ripping thru opponents and arm barring them, her appeal will be strong.

    If she goes out and breaks Tate's arm again after the TUF build-up, she'll be insanely popular.

    yeah that shit looked broken to me too. But it wasnt.

    "I had X-Rays last night," Tate told MMAFighting.com via text message. "No bones are broken, which I already knew. Other than that, I have to get an MRI to find out anything further."

    I think Rousey might have reclaimed some fans with last night's episode. The Father's Day gift for the sobbing member of Tate's team was a cool move. Knowing Ronda's backstory with her father, you could tell it wasn't a contrived gesture.

    Additionally, Rousey handled the "picture prank" perfectly. She didn't retaliate because she promised Dana she wouldn't. But she didn't waiver in her utter disrespect for Tate.
