turnedup, there is no ***ism. You are concerned about ***ism when the issue is bald-face lies repeatedly being presented as truth. How is requesting proof to back up the repeated declarations that RR can beat Floyd and Cain ***ism? ***·ism
ˈsekˌsizəm/Submit
noun
prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination, typically against women, on the basis of ***.
Stating the belief that RR cannot beat healthy, trained, adult male fighters is not ***ism any more than stating that a pre pubescent boy cannot beat a healthy, trained, adult male fighter. It is simply an opinion based on fact. Can RR beat pre pubescent boys in a fight? More than likely as all else being equal, adult RR in training has greater strength than pre pubescent boys.
And now that RR was KOd by HH, perhaps your blindness concerning RR's fighting prowess will come to an end. Holly Holm is not Floyd. Holly Holm is not Cain. Holly Holm KO'd RR, and that is likely what will happen to RR each and every time she fights a trained adult male fighter; however, with the power men have, the punches RR suffer serious brain damage.

blindness, she got beaten by someone trained to defeat that. That didn't come overnight either. The people she'd be fighting against in this discussion are not trained at protecting their feet or used to worrying about an armlock or a kick to the face. She got Ko'd by a great women who is trained in this style of combat and the better fighter tonight.

Once I saw the weigh in, I thought that Ronda's failed attempt to control Holly's arm told me that Ronda was in far over her head. Here's hoping that DW at least has the decency to treat HH in a respectful manner. Asking him to treat her as a rising superstar might be too much.

Yea she was a huge biitch at the weigh in. Def shook. And no chance holly will get even half the hype of rousey. 1 she's in her 30s and not as pretty. If even she beat her again she'll just be another champ

This fight proved that RR cannot take the a 135 pound woman's jab. Ronda has a very low tolerance for a punch. The men she'd be fighting have virtually mastered the art of controlling their opponent and would need a next to no training on how to render her incapable of fighting. Ronda's rank amateurish boxing was clearly evident any time she "boxed." Any skilled boxer knew her limitations instantly. How Holly Holm and her team refrained from boldly declaring what she'd do to Ronda, I don't know, but I am certain that those with whom Holly trained and those that were privy to her training had to know what Holly had in store for Ronda. I imagine that they are laughing themselves silly thinking about meanie face Ronda and her loudmouth threats. How was it Ronda was described? Toughest woman on Earth. Yup. I think that was it. And I also wonder about Ronda's boxer friends. They had to know just how poor a boxer Ronda was. Was "the myth of Ronda's invulnerability" so ingrained that nobody - even those boxer friends who clearly saw her lack of skill, would speak to her or advise her that she was asking for trouble if she thought that she could box with Holly Holm?
