Comments Thread For: Laila Ali: Holm Will KO Rousey Again, Probably Worse

[j0zef]

Everybody who says that Holm "dominated" should go and watch the actual fight - it's somewhere on youtube.

The writers who say that Holm dominated are correct in saying that Holm landed a lot of hits and Ronda didn't. But if you watch the actual fight, you'll see that Ronda chased Holm around the ring during both rounds, even right before the KO. It's very hard to say that you "dominated" when you spent the whole fight running away.

Golovkin dominates. Floyd wins.

I think it goes worse too, Holm clearly demonstrated she was the better fighter and Rousey now understands that. I'm sure Ronda's sitting somewhere chatting with Dana White about damage control, and she's coming to the conclusion that she isn't the baddest female on the planet, she can't beat a man, and she isn't as cute as she thought she was. A rematch with Holm may mean her revenue stream dries up completely. The "Media" is the ultimate dream factory, they can convince dumb people of anything. Look what they did with Rousey.

I bet Ronda's scratching that sweet little sore head of hers wondering where the torrent of hate is originating from....

Spot on, if Rousey was just another fighter no one would care, but she was the biggest hype job in the history of her sport, and neither her nor Dana White could stop talking about Mayweather or boxing in general. To have a 34 year old boxer with only a couple years of MMA training destroy her is too perfect.

And ESPN was in damage control immediately after, I heard, "Everyone can get caught." several times on that network. She didn't just get caught, she got completely destroyed and after 60 seconds there was no way she could win that fight.

Rousey was a ****y smack talker who didn't respect her opponents, I wonder if she really believed she was that good. I wonder if Dana White will continue to talk about her beating male boxers.

I hope they do fight again and Holm breaks Rousey's face again.

Rousey looked fat and flabby with a bubble butt

Lousy Rousey was in terrible shape and the KO was justified. Rousey is a terrible person and deserved to be humiliated. Lousy beat up inferior opponents in making her sham fake name. Nice KO good for America.

Holly Holm looked like Manny Pacquiao in that ring, when Pac fought Oscar de la hoya and when Hatton came out aggressive he was able to fight off the back foot firing off the lead left.

Ronda looked like Ricky Hatton eating punches and walking into them. Holm was a mobile southpaw with speed, something Ronda is not used too, I still cant believe her coach and UFC dana white said she hadx better hands than female boxers, smh. she might throw some nice combos on the mitts but boxing is more than throwing combos, its about setting up shots, moving, and timing, and a bunch of other tools you must know

The key of the fight though was Holms ability to understand JUDO defense, Rondas whole plan has always been to run forward eat shots and clinch, the thing is Holm is a boxer with experience and boxing iq, she knows when someone like Ronda runs forward she wants you to throw 3 or 4 punch combos hit her or miss and Ronda will grab you take you down, instead Holm fired off a lead left got out, fired off single hard shots over and over with a shoulder feint, Rousey had zero head movement, came in like a zombie.

The key moments were not the striking, everyone with a brain knew holm would dominate the boxing, its the times when Ronda tied up and got Holm on the ground, Holm on the cage kept her elbow in close and her hips lower, Ronda had her hips higher, Holm was taught well, to prevent a Judo throw you must have a strong base, lower this hips, and prevent Ronda to get you to wrap your arms around her body so can lift, when I used to grapple I was taught how to defend Judo throws. Most of Rondas victims were too ****** or panicked and got scared of Rondas aura so they forgot what to do and got caught, they had no clue how to defend a toss or counter the armbar on the ground, Holm a freaking BOXER learned how to do that in a short training camp she also had a key she is BRAVE with composure and patience that is something Holm has experience in big fights so she wasnt intimidated she been in harder brawls so she kept her cool at all times and stuck to the gameplan and focused, her coaches should be commended, when Ronda almost got that armbar from the bottom Holm was able to make sure Rondas foot didn't get out you can even see Holm trying to grab the fought, when Ronda tried to transition holm moved with her to get out. Its about timing, Ronda spent all her energy trying to toss Holm, she was only able to do it one time, but that other time when they tied up on the cage she couldn't lift home and that right there can gas you bad when you force yourself to try to lift an immovable object that won't budge.

Whoever trained Ronda in boxing is a liar and a fake, he sucks badly he just filled here ego up here.

it mixes:

Boxing, aikido, judo and a couple other styles.
You don't mess with a Bujutsu guy unless you want to go to the hospital.

So im guessing you saw this video of the breakdown.

I posted about this a year or two ago on how to defend against a judo toss its basic common sense if you ever studied judo or grappling its why I always laughed when these girls would end on the bottom or tossed, also I knew Ronda would have trouble tossing a biger girl like Holm she isnt as strong as people said the reason Ronda look so good is she was fighting shorter girls around her size or smaller and they were not strong, when these chicks were tying up with Ronda they panicked and failed to prevent the throws, plus they would throw combos instead of single shots, I been saying it for a long time, in order to beat Ronda you cant buy into her aura, you cant be beaten before you enter, and you cant panic.

Always fire off single shots and circle get her rushing in because she is the female brock lesnar, and tries to eat shot just to clinch in.

Holly was taught well its not really that hard to see what she does, I study fights man watch them slowed down and really pick them apart, people always doubt my gameplans on here, but I said it before if a fighter follows the plan they will not lose, its only when they dont they lose.

In the breakdown vid after watching Holm i think she got lucky on one occasion Ronda was too arm bar happy but could have gone for a rear naked choke. Maybe in a rematch she doesn't do that. But you are right, i also thought she is much stronger then most girls in her division and simply overpowers them. Her shoulders look huge compared to everyone else. But anyone as strong or if it was a guy i think just breaks free, If she fought Floyd lets say Floyd didn't know any moves, you don't think he would be strong enough to just break her grip? She was fighting a bunch girls who didn't match her physical attributes and was made to look like a beast.
