Comments Thread For: Holly Holm Shocks The World, KO's Ronda Rousey

[bigjavi973]

So within two hours, a UFC woman's fight gets more comments than a male boxing fight

Can we gloat?

She was on the cover of ring ****zine & just got her ass handed to her by a former boxing world champ.

No one in mma will retire undefeated they can't cherry pick like Floyd or take a 2 yr hiatus like he did ..

stfu gracie retired undefeated. He lost only after he came out of retirement.

& that he went undefeated in the early ufc days vs dudes that outweighed him by like 100 lbs (see gracie vs kimo)

Oh hell yeah, that was ******. Even people I know in person were saying she should start fighting men and I would say to them are you ****ing kidding me? Not only would she get hurt, but it's a lose-lose for the guy. Hell, they don't even let women compete with men in chess.

They interviewed Ann Wolfe about Rousey fighting men.

Wolfe said no way, women can't spar/beat men their own size/level.

Too early to tell. 10 MMA fights is like the equivalent of about 20 or so pro boxing fights. A typical career has about 35 to 40, maybe 45 fights. If they reach 50, it's really pushing it for them. Boxing is usually about 50-60, so it'll take a few more to decide her historical standing. As of currently though, yeah, she's the best women's bantamweight. The reason why Ronda was so hyped up was because she was about 3 or 4 wins away from cleaning out 135. I'd like to see Tate get a shot now, since her last fight made her #1 contender.

So, Holm has totally aced boxing AND mma, at the highest possible level ?

I know that no other woman has ever achieved that, but just wondering if there are other women who have excelled in multiple arts?

She must rank right up there in terms of women fighters period ?

Women shouldn't fight anyway. Why bother when you already have the real thing?

Mayweather reading

The "...after someone reads this to him..." comments about Mayweather are ridiculous and childish at this point.

He has enough money to have someone read TO him and FOR him!!!

Got through 5 pages of Mayweather fans acting like he beat her last night and had to tap out..

Rousey is an idiot, she tried to outbox Holm and not take her down once...I'll bet she wins in the rematch by submission and then they'll fight a 3rd time...

thats not what I saw
