vegas-voss Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Watched that a few times now and I still can't tell exactly what happened.Looked to me that it is Ronda stirring up the shit as usual all Holm does is react. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droid Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Classic case of believing your own hype. Ronda's apparently had talks to crossover into boxing with ODH, she's not a boxer as proven last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sten Guns Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Rousey looked ****ing knackered fighting that "long". Outside of Holm is there really going to be anyone who can give her ring time to prepare for the rematch? You can't train to fight multiple rounds. It was so obvious that Holly had went round after round after round in the past. Man she made Ronda look like an amateur. Weidman will KO Rockhold inside 2 IMO.

CJGJ Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Not convinced. It's easy to post comments like this after the biggest shock in the history of the sport. Did you say the same on this thread beforehand? If you did. I'll believe you then. There are only 2 weight categories for women and UFC has about 30 fighters contracted at each weight. Not sure where you get the idea that there are only 10 female fighters from. Practically every fan of martial arts on the planet and most UFC fighters of both genders rate her as a champion but apparently you knew better all along. Sorry but I don't believe you. She was absolutely shown up tonight. Completely believed her own hype and legend by the looks of things and tried to go toe to toe with a world class boxer. She's never been much of a boxer and her ego did her a huge disservice. If she'd taken her down and wrestled with her, she'd maybe have won. She'd certainly not have been comprehensively battered like she was tonight. I've no doubt that there will be a rematch and maybe she'll show some restraint and intelligence. If she does, and fights to her strengths, she'll be champion again. Said it before the fight and if you were not sucked in by the hype it was obvious...so I guess I did know better all along . You might not have liked the comments but they were spot on so take a breath, lose the anger and simply realise that she was all hype.

Generic Username Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I don't think it was hype with Rousey though. She decimated the division up to that point and nobody could live with her. What's happened though is the sport has evolved and pulled in an even higher calibre of athletes and Rousey couldn't live with it. If she'd battered one lassie and was then getting shopped all over the place as the best fighter ever I think chat about not believing the hype would be accurate. Her record in Strikeforce and UFC shouldn't be in question. It's whether people were able to look at the fight/fighters objectively for this one and not be swept up by what Rousey had done before. Going into a fight with twelve wins isn't to be sniffed at. She's very good, but blatantly on last night's showing, not good enough for where the sport is going and will need to become a master of multiple disciplines now in order to get back to the top and stay there. It won't be good enough to just get "no bad" at other aspects of her game during camps. Or, just chuck it and head to Hollywood for some easy dollar. Would be good if she could do what Lesnar did and come back from a defeat against the person who inflicted it. We'll see though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was shocking and funny in equal measures. Really looking forward to seeing what happens next. I do like Ronda (she comes across as a good person when I've heard her talking at length on podcasts) but her arrogance and lack of sportsmanship was pretty poor. She deserved what she got. I just don't believe you. It's easy to come on here crowing about how you never really believe the hype and you knew better all along than nearly all of the sports experts, fans and competitors after she's just had her clock cleaned. If you'd posted the same thing on here before the fight, I'd probably have disagreed but at least I'd believe that you know your stuff.

Would be good if she could do what Lesnar did and come back from a defeat against the person who inflicted it. We'll see though. She could just constantly try and take HH down and use her BJJ and Judo skills. It would be hard for HH if the fight was mostly on the deck. Trying to out-box a former world boxing champ was mental and really poor judgement. As everyone else seems to be saying, a classic case of believing your own hype. That Lesnar v Mir 2 knockout though...... Damn, that was brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 A few people seem to be going on about RR retiring now. It's pretty clear from that UFC that she's not the one who should be retiring. Bigfoot Silva needs to retire before he gets some lasting brain damage. Mark Hunt should be not too far behind him. I guess with all of the money starting to grown within the sport they'll want to try and get as much as possible before they leave but these older guys have been to war a whole lot of times. Bigfoot Silva has been knocked out by anyone decent he's faced over the last couple of years. The state of the boy's face is unreal. Who knows what that'll do to his brain. As for Akbarrh Arreolah...... That was one of the worst beatings of the year. He's a never has been and just got beaten up horribly by a 21yr old. It's sad that some of the older guys will have to leave just when they money was starting to improve but if they want to avoid spending the rest of their lives drooling they probably should.

I dont think she needs to retire i think she will walkaway probably after the rematch win or lose.Thinking back to the fight i think Ronda has made Holm look a far better mma fighter than she actually is as previous fights she has shown nothing to suggest she is that great.One thing for sure dont expect many great title fights for as long as Holm has the belt.Looking forward to Joanna J?drzeczyk v Claudia Gadelha as i think that is the womens division were all the best fights will come from.

Greg Jackson and Mike Winklejohn said Holly has been holding back thus far. Even if you don't believe them (not sure why they'd lie) you've completely ignored the very strong likelihood she's started to improve massively. She's still new to this. Surely that's allowed? Can't write off her current status based on the past? If you don't think some of her movement, punches, elbows oblique kicks and that head kick were "that great", I'm not sure what you're looking for either? She even took Ronda down FFS. Ronda also failed in that arm bar attempt. Prediction for Aldo McGregor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aldo to beat Connor for me although i am probably in the minority with that prediction. Had you been impressed when you watched any of Holms previous fights ?

I think his biggest problem will be he cant help but showboat and leave himself exposed.He is great entertainment but he leaves his chin out there to be hit(he can take a hit though)and is quite easy to take down.His strategy his last few fights seems to be i will take a few hits to get mine off and i think he will be punished against Aldo with that approach.In saying all that you just dont know how much McGregor has got into Aldo's head so although i favour Jose i wouldnt be shocked if Connor won.Size might be another game changer as McGregor is the bigger man.As i said previously though its the Weidman match i am looking forward to the most i cant call that one.

I'd actually fancy Canelo v GGG, over the last couple of fights for each I'd have Canelo as having the better movement in the ring, if he can resist the temptation of always looking for KO punches (like he was trying at times against cotto) and box around GGG then he'll win it on points. If Cenelo goes looking for a scrap then it's advantage GGG, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also agree that mcgregor would get found out at lightweight. The division is stacked with killers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
