Ronda Rousey vs Holly Holm January 2 2016

SDGuy73 · Aug 21, 2015

12-0 Vs 9-0. Boxer with punching power. Didn't they say the same thing about Bethe? That she was a hard hitting striker.

Tate got past up. I watched Rousey As Tate 2. Where Rousey arm barred Tate early in the round. Rousey beat (strikes; hands and kness) the crap out of Tate every round. Tate had nothing for her.

I'd rather watch Tate for the third time.

Its BS. Tate would smash HH. Another can for RR

Last Holm fight I saw, she looked really green. I expect Rousey to throw her to the ground within 10 seconds

It's a joke. Fight Tate or fight Cyborg. Can

What a shit fight. I guess they want to use the "undefeated boxer" hype before she loses. Holm hasn't looked that good in her 2 UFC fights against average competition. She probably loses to most of the women in the top 10.

Maybe they can schedule a Tate vs Cyborg fight as compensation. Tate has been in some wars & I would pick her against cyborg.

Double H is in for a short night. I almost think R.R. will show her hands and knock her out.

UK Cowboy · Aug 23, 2015

Tate lost her title shot after her and Caraway spoke out against the Nike deal. Same reason Stitch got cut. Absurd

If Dana cannot find someone equal, he will look for his Buster Douglas.

This. Not mad about it though. Everyone is a can when it's time to fight Rousey. I'd prefer Holm to watching Tate #3. Holm was going to lose her shine quickly if she were to fight one of the other top 4-5. I'd love to be wrong, but Holm has been fighting cans for a long time now and I haven't really seen that much progression.

Would LOVE to see Tate vs. Cyborg. Although I think it would be a bad business decision for the UFC to do that. Tate would smoke a juice free Cyborg at 135. I don't even think it would be close.

Tate would probably agree to a 145 pound match weight fight, just because Ronda wouldnt.

I doubt Tate or the UFC would see the logic in that. Invicta may be on fight pass but they're not the same thing.

I'm sure Tate would love to do it, considering she's already offered to fight her. The sad part is, Dana won't let Tate fight her, because she may beat Cyborg, and kill the Ronda/Cyborg cash cow. Nobody is fighting Cyborg until she gets to 135 and then it's Ronda.

Good point.

I really don't want anyone else other than Ronda to get a 135 shot at Cyborg. There's so much bad blood there...love it.

SDGuy73 · Aug 26, 2015

I've never seen Cyborg fight. Isn't she suppose to be a bad ass? Could Tate beat her? Tate had nothing for Rousey. Other than be a punching bag.

Tate could beat her if Cyborg weren't a hulking roid monster. In fact, lots of girls could beat her if she weren't on the juice. Cyborg lost her first pro fight ever (at 135) and thereafter her body type, weight class and win-loss record went the other way. She looks like a pissed off dude every time she fights throwing hay makers.

This is why I say Cyborg will never fight at 135 (again). She remembers what it's like to be beaten by a superior, skilled, fighter and her ego will never let herself fight again without the roids. Even if it's a retirement payday.

UK Cowboy · Aug 26, 2015

Tate has really improved the last year or so. I'd give her a 1 in 3 chance against Cyborg, and a 1 in 5 chance against rousey

Tomas Tatar · Sep 11, 2015

Cyborg is an awful match-up for Tate. Fighting a powerful striker is not ideal. Cyborg by first round TKO if the fight were to happen now at 145 lbs.

and lol at steroids is her ego. She did a MT fight against the #1 female fighter in the world. She got dominated, but man that's really something. Went to a decision.

Gooch1034 · Sep 11, 2015

RR will likely dominate Holm but she will likely need to close the gap and use her Judo to take Holm to the ground. Holly Holm is the best striker in the UFC so it wouldn't be too smart for Ronda to stand with her. HH is too green to be fighting Rousey so early in her MMA career IMO but I give Holly more than an average chance if she can keep Ronda from moving forward. Rousey ate some shots from Correia before the KO and if HH can get a few in like Correia, Ronda could be in some trouble.

Holm didn't do too much in her less fight. Her striking was actually off as she was missing with everything. I don't think getting in there and getting a clinch will be overly difficult for Ronda. Besides Holm hasn't shown too much power in her hands in MMA; more so her kicks. Her UFC stint has been a let down to me personally.

Cyborg truly doesn't make sense for the UFC so I won't go there. Amanda Nunes is interesting. Seeing if Tate can find more success as well to me personally though Ronda's improved so much since that second fight.
