I really like Holly Holm...not because she beat the shit outta Ronda, but because she's humble. Now where are all of these celebrities hyping up Rousy? She'll now see how shady everyone is...
+Tits plz put the full story cus that's completely true after n bunch of times of her ignoring the question she finally answered n she put it as in boxing no chance she knows he would win in a ufc match she would a far better chance then him because that's her home
+Jonathan rubin and that is why Lesnar said Vince is better than Dana in the industry! Dana should've lined up easy fights for Rousey and made her his Super Cena! xD
+TiggahG That's why real fans love the sport though. Back in the Tito Ortiz days they'd line up butter fights, now they actually make the divions truly competitive. There's really only a few names that get skipped for easier fights these days. Lombard and Romero come to mind
Ronda didn't even tap gloves with Holly? Holly Tap Ronda instead ! Ronda Rosey finally fought sombody ! Amateur hour has finally ending with a Knockout !Seeing Ronda Rosey get Knockout is the single greatest thing to happen in the UFC women's division
yeah I would have rooted for her but setiously, the weigh in scrap and the tapping was pretty lame of her even though I'm sure she did it for the attention for the fight. you look really stupid when you try to come off all badass then get your as kicked
So when is Ronda gonna come and face the music? She has an awful lot to say when she wins a fight. You can't just run and hide when it doesn't go your way.
I don't think Ronda deserves a rematch right away. She was fighting like an amateur and her stand up game was exposed. She's not ready yet and if she gets back in there she will get hurt really fucking bad. Don't believe me look at Holly Holm's highlights and then try to tell me that Ronda stood a chance on the feet.
Rhonda got her dome flown the the fuck off lmao,,dont try and box with a multidividonal worl class boxer,,haha haha in my Michael jackson thriller video voice
***** dude calm down jeeezz i didnt even say anything bad to ya. Was just checking on your well being. Seems your really hurt and upset. I will pray for you
Holly Homes..from last sacrificial offering to Rousey's world of fame to first person in history (man or woman) undisputed champion in both boxing and UFC
+Robert Hall Ufc Champion , not MMA champion chump , that could mean strike force or some shitty show . She held Multiple Boxing Titles . Stop being a geek you momo!
+MrZulujack "Duuurrrr she has ufc belt so she ufc champion" thats you. boxing has tiers too its not one unified belt for one sport. so yes she is the top tier champ for boxing and MMA notice how i use the name of the sport not the organization's
I know right.. it was a dominant win. Ronda needs atleast 2 years to work on her stand-up, and even then it would be just so she could get it to the clinch. she'll never beat Holly in a stand-up fight.
+Jay H With rumours flying around that ronda could take a long break, i just hope dana white does not make holly wait until ronda returns before giving her action in the octagon. I'd personally hope dana makes holly fight either miesha tate or cat zingano before the ronda rematch
Exactly. I was surprised to see how bad her boxing skills were. Hands down, wild punches, trying the same takedown. I wonder if her coaches ever taught her double leg takedowns or any leg locks.....smh
Considering her skill and her record, it's amazing how humble and sincere this woman is. She is the epitome of good sportsmanship. Ronda Rousey is the exact opposite. She lost to a true sportsman and she deserves every bit of criticism she is taking all over the web. It's been a full day and Rousey still doesn't have the courage or character to congratulate Holm for her well earned victory. If Rousey does take the rematch, she will see that it's delayed for at least a full year hoping that Holm's age will catch up with her while Rousey is still in her prime. It won't work. Holm will win the rematch by KO or TKO. In the meantime, MMA needs less trash talking, less hype, fewer big egos, fewer hamburger commercials and more true sportsman like Holly Holm.
Holm is smart. She know ronda's boxing is nowhere near her's but still says ronda is one of the dominant athletes in women's mma and deserves a rematch. Holm is ready to kick ronda's ass one more time but more brutal way
She has to say that but in reality Ronda doesnt deserve jack shit. The fight wasnt even CLOSE. Even TJ vs Barao didnt happen until after Barao had another fight.
+Diavolo222 because Barao didn't make weight, so Joe Soto in his UFC debut, on 2 days notice took his place. bud, anyone to defend the belt more than twice is always given a rematch if you haven't noticed. Ronda's the reason the women's divisions even began lol. Pretty sure just on that merit alone she gets a rematch. Regardless the outcome.
Right, fight wasnt even close. Bottom line is that fools are holding on to all that dominate athelete hype and still feel she'll wipe the floor with Holms which is bullshit in my opinion.
In absolutely no way, shape or form does Rousey merit a rematch. She was completely dominated by Holm, who is clearly a far superior fighter. In any case, Rousey should have to fight Cyborg first. If she manages to win that one (highly doubtful) then she will have earned the privilege of Holm once again repeatedly smashing her fat moon face.
Rematch is good. I also wouldn't mind seeing Ronda go through one challenger before too, since she absolutely got TOOLED by Holly this fight. Holly didn't win by "puncher's chance", she straight up dismantled Rousey for 6 minutes and brutally knocked her the fuck out
Automatic rematches just fuck shit up. Why does someone have to beat the guy twice? The only time a automatic rematch makes sense is if its a very close fight like gus/jones.. Or if some injury happens. Stop the insanity!
until this fight people were saying Holly Holm did not had enough time to prepare for Rousey, now it's exactly the opposite... a quick rematch would be in favor of Holly Holm.
This right here sums up why I like her aside from her fighting which is an obvious but as a person/her personality... She isn't cocky, she's humble and has never taken the "sex sells" route for popularity. That automatically makes me respect her far more.
There are a lot of great posts on here; also, views that are spot on. I would like to also point out an observation that I used to detect an upcoming defeat, and it goes like this... Holly, don't even control a thing in her camp: The wealth that Holly makes, will be distributed in the fashion according to the "business" of the game. Where in Ronda's corner, it is not that way. She controlled everything if you see what I'm getting at. Simply putting it: it is the people she surrounded herself with, and the lack there of; meaning this... are you going to stand around and work for someone who grows and you don't? when wealth come into the mix, as the business man would say, "its time to replace the horse that pulls my Wagon" again... if you keep beating the same horse, it will stop pulling one day.
+1analist he said it because he was being humble.. he thinks he's the best. but if he says anything bad about a woman he knows the media will destroy him so he says he's on par with ronda. but he deep down inside knows the truth that he can own ronda easily
Funny how Ronda gets the privilege of a rematch, if the story was different and she won, I highly doubt she'd give Holly any second chances and just go on with being the "number one fighter"
I know that Dana feels like hes lost his cash cow but cmon, Holly is awesome! She is much better representative of Martial Arts and professional sports.
As much of a supporter of Ronda Rousey that I am........I can't bring myself to dislike.......or speak disrespectfully of Holly Holm, in any fashion. She appears to be an exceptionally humble person.......a total CLASS ACT. Instead of disliking this woman......I find myself as a fan. I wish her the best.
a lot of people couldnt see the failed takedown attempts by ronda. Watch the fight and focus just on what she does, the very first thing she did was try a takedown but holly was slippery and surprisingly good at avoiding them. At one point ronda tried a hipthrow but holly stepped in the right place and actually threw ronda off balance. She successfully avoided takedowns and beat her at her game (kickboxing) and that won her the fight.
for all you people who think based off of this fight that ronda has no boxing skills I would say you simply don't know enough about the human mind to know the real reason behind what happened in this fight or you just dislike ronda. now I'm not trying to have a go or say anybody is stupid or anything I'm just making a point on where I think people have gone wrong. yes she was awful in this fight against holly but she's won in the past with barely getting hit in the face and you can't say that everyone she's fought in the past has shit boxing so there must be a non skill related reason behind why she lost to holly. don't get me wrong holly is sick at mma in general let alone boxing and she did fight the way she was supposed to but I don't think she faced the right ready to go ronda rousy. joe rogan has said that ronda's boxing has become world class and of a professional boxing level and he knows a thing or two about boxing and mma so her performance is not a reflection on her skills. I'd say she's had the same problem mike tyson had, not because of the same reason but still the same problem. she was majorly intimidated by holly's boxing and mma record and skills that she started to doubt the effectiveness of her own skills and then like mike tyson she lost faith in herself completely and the fight was effected. this is why she acted odd and overly aggressive during the weigh ins which she hasn't done before despite having reasons to do so. everything was just off in this fight and her simply moving forward towards punches in the face just goes to show she was off, I'm not saying she can definitely beat holly but if she get's her head together and believes in herself like she has before then the rematch will turn out far differently then this fight did.
+james haliburn Well, Joe Rogan says lots of silly things. Don't get me wrong Joe knows his stuff when it comes to BJJ, but he was a bit hyperbolic when he says things like Ronda's boxing is "world class". Holly Holm's boxing actually is world class. Most of Ronda's previous opponents didn't properly use lateral movement to evade Ronda's bullrushing style. They would often sit in the pocket and try and hit back with a haymaker get clinched up and then tossed. Plus, you have to factor most of Ronda's previous opponents didn't have the experience in the combat arts that she did. Plus, Ronda is a big fighter for her weight class. She does have good power but the is not the be all end all to be a good boxer.Holly was the first fighter she fought that had comparable(if not more) experience, size and her ringcraft and ability move laterally are what led to her winning.Ronda did the same things she always does. Charges straight ahead swinging trying to clinch up for a toss and then ground and pound. When that failed she didn't seem to have a plan B and it all went to shit for her after that.What Ronda needs to do is get a new striking coach that can teach her about angles and pacing and distance. She was severely outclassed in these areas.Not trying to be jerky, just calling them as I see them.
Web Developer that's not even a mature factual argument against what I've said so well done!! good adulting right there xD henrylicious if you're saying she was doing the same in this fight that she's done in every other fight then why did she become tired within 1 round yet she never got tired during her fights with tate despite the tate fights having more constant action in them ? ronda came out swinging for the fences putting everything behind her punches and when it didn't work she tried to go for a take down and then swing for the fences more which is why she was gassed out within 1 round, do you really think she swings for the fences every time she boxes with someone in the octagon ? even if her fighting style was the same as it's always been, she was still mentally defeated way before the weigh ins let alone the fight and that self doubt and lack of determination plays a big part in how much damage your head and body can take. emotions effect physical performance and this is why no offence to holly but she didn't face the peak ronda that she should of. I'm not trying to dull down holly's performance because it was sick, maybe I'm way off in my opinion but to me it looked like ronda being coached and led by her frustrations not by a clear confident mind.
+james haliburn "she didn't face the peak ronda that she should of."She most certainly did. The reason she became tired in the first round is because she never fought a true pro before. Everyone she fought up until now are amateurs, especially compared to Holly. Holly had full control of that fight from the get go. It was basically sparring practice for her. Rousey would be an idiot to step in the octagon with her again. She isn't, by any stretch of the imagination, a match for Holly.
Mick0722MX no offence but you do not know the difference between purely kickboxing and kickboxing mixed with loads of grappling and the effect added grappling has on energy. you use around 3 times more energy when grappling is added, it doesn't matter how amateur someone is, if they're grappling with you for most of multiple rounds you will use way more energy compared to even the best female kickboxer ever who is just kickboxing with you for 1 round. this bit of information isn't me being biased toward ronda it's just a fact that many people have stated for many years in mma, having to move around with a whole other human body and use pretty much all your muscles near max is more effort then simply bouncing yourself around and kickboxing. did ronda seem tired when having this grappling match with meisha for multiple rounds ? no far from it and you can't say meisha is small for the weight class because she obviously isn't. yet this and the fact that she trains for multiple rounds all the time somehow didn't prepare her and wasn't enough for her to be able to last only 1 round just kickboxing ? also it wasn't even a furious first round with loads of punches and kicks either. come on man it's not like her to last only 1 round and get tired and it's not like her to just continuously run into punches and not want to change her game plan or just move her head at all.
No offense, but I don't need you telling me what I know and what I don't know. No offense again, but you really don't know what you're talking about. Holly is in a completely different league than Rousey, and as long as Holly continues training, that will never change.
Dana - killed his golden goose. This was the worst match-up for Ronda at this stage of her career. Holly is a strong kick boxer and boxer and is much bigger than Ronda. Wrong match at the wrong time.
+Robert Miller But Holly is nowhere near Ronda's level when it comes to judo and ground game. Each fighter has their strengths and weaknesses. If Ronda would would have won, people would be saying it was the worst match-up for Holm at that stage in her career.
+johnbs199 Ronda's ground game clearly isn't as strong as you think - Holly was barely on the ground and Ronda got grounded by Holms physically and mentally lol #humbled
This fight is quite similar to ali vs liston except that its ali the challenger who made all the noises before the fight unlike here where the reigning champ made lot of noises and ended up losing very badly....lesson 1: never consider yourself as great and make predictions like "going to retire without losing a fight" unless you are ali. lesson 2: better touch your opponent glove b4 the match.
Why be so modest, ronda had never fought a fighter with a boxing tradition. Boxers seem to have always garnished the more athletic people involved in combat sports. Boxing has proven itself once more to be superior to chocking and wrestling.
Really entertaining fight, it's pretty awesome to see a moment like that in the fight game. I think that this is the best example of a game plan executed perfectly. It'll be interesting to see how Ronda fights in the rematch though, now that her Cockiness has been severely damaged lol, It should make for a much more competitive fight. Holm will win a stand up fight anyday, Rousey will win a grappling fight. This is your quintessential Boxer vs. Judo practician. Hopefully Ronda learns how to throw a technical punch, I'd really love to see these two at their best. Props to Holly, perfect fight for her.
+jumbalyiajefferson Holly is already past her prime and she still decimated Ronda. And what makes you think Ronda can win a grappling fight against Holly Holm?. Holly took Ronda down - it was almost a suplex. Ronda couldn't keep Holly down in her half-assed takedown attempt. Holly is stronger than Ronda. Ronda can't win on the ground against Holly or she would have.
Red Rover An experienced submission artist will obviously let a boxer take her down, it's pretty much giving her a shot at your arm without having to work for the takedown. You clearly don't know that much about MMA. and womens mma is so new that someone as skilled at striking would obviously beat the female equivalent to Royce gracie. Ronda is an Olympic Judo athlete, what makes YOU think a boxer could beat her at her own game? If she would've won you would've been dickriding the other way, saying oh Holly's past her prime, obviously Ronda would submit her. I literally guarantee you'd say that lol
For someone whose stand up game got dismantled so easily, there would be no point in a rematch because the out come would be obvious. The fact is Rousey got exposed, she came up against a fighter who was far superior then she was physically and skill set wise. No point in a rematch, unless you want to see her ass kicked again. Which i wouldn't mind.
+Jackey Niraula True she´s so hot curvy yet ripped at big press her legs looked supa hot on those jeans and at the weight ins her abs looked amazing not to mention her bubble booty. So glad she won she´s humble,girly,hot and she kicks mayor ass.
I don't understand the second rematch. Is Ronda going to suddenly learn boxing as well as other traits which Holly has studied and learned for the past 10 years? No.
Even the best fighters doubt themselves sometimes? Hmm, interesting. So real strength IS will! And if you pay attention, you can feel HOW strong your will is, can in turn can be.
omg i still don't believr two things...undertaker loosing to brock and ronda loosing to holy holm. i k'ow she is a great athlete but i didn't expect that match ! well deserved
I just gotta comment. There is something going on behind the scenes in the Rousey camp. First there is the interview with Ronda's mother stating that her daughter's coach is not doing his job. Say what you want, but when someone as accomplished and experienced as Dr. De Mars speaks up in such a negative way just weeks before a fight one must take pause and wonder why. Then there is the bankruptcy of Ronda's striking coach. There stress caused to a person going through this process is significant and can only serve to distract the coach from his coaching responsibilities. Then there are all of Ronda's distractions; too many interviews, too many movies, too much talking, too many things to distract her from the primary vehicle that took her to the world stage. And then there as the embarrassing weigh in when Ronda's arm got tangled with Holly's causing Holly's fist to touch Ronda's face. Ronda's reaction to this was almost incoherent, almost babbling indicating a state of mind that was unfocused at the least. Certainly not in a state ready for a world class fight. And lastly, Ronda's refusal to touch gloves before the fight. This is unbecoming for a woman who has showed so much class in her other activities, and her charities. It's almost like it was scripted by Mike Tyson. A poor role model indeed. And then there is the fight....This is Ronda's coaching I saw. "Ok Rhonda, get really really mad and make that scary face, then go in there and lead with your chin, and then do that Judo thing that you're so good at. Then we'll have some beers with the Aussies after you win...." Holly on the other hand looked focused and hungry. She has been nothing but respectful and thankful for the opportunity for a title fight. I saw nothing but her thoughtful respect leading up to the fight. At the weigh in I saw Holly as a chiseled warrior confident in her abilities and somewhat aghast at her opponents antics. Where Ronda was somewhat fleshy, Holly was crisp.Holly's coaching looked to be razor sharp. No movies, not too much talk, clear thinking and respect for the process... "Ok Holly, here's our game. Don't go to her strengths, don't go to the mat, and if you get on the mat stand up and get away. TURN this into your strength, make it a boxing match. When she advances, hit her in the face. After twenty or thirty blows she will be confused and tired. Then when the time is right, let go the big dog and put a foot up along the side of her head, and it will our turn for beers and green chilly fries..." I like Ronda but her actions do not reflect her upbringing. She is being influenced by people who have ulterior motives and has become a little too full of herself. The fight game must be full of unsavory types, all looking to take a piece of the champion's fame, until the foundation of the champion's success is undermined. Ronda will never beat Holly unless she gets un-conflicted coaching and learns how to box. It will be an interesting journey.I also like Holly Holm, the new champion. Something like 18 boxing titles, and now the MMA title. She deserves all the accolades for a very professional fight. Good for her! But I would not be so quick to accept a rematch. Let Ronda stew in her own juices for a while. Take on a few other challengers before giving Ronda her opportunity. Do what's best for Holly....Anyway, great fight and it's like my father said, "Why bring a knife to a gun fight?"Brad Deal
+Brad Deal Tarverdyan is probably going to go under for fraud. Armenians in Glendale apparently have a thing for debt evasion/fraud, and rumor is Tarverdyan has a significant gambling problem
Dude I read you whole comment and than I saw it was only quarter of it. Few more words and it can be a book... "Why bitch lost" title. Keep shorter bro
I really like Holly Holm...not because she beat the shit outta Ronda, but because she's humble. Now where are all of these celebrities hyping up Rousy? She'll now see how shady everyone is...

lol! why dont you like the hamburger comercials
Because there is no legitimate reason for a professional athlete to endorse a hamburger. Athletic gear, maybe. Hamburger, no.
Lesnar endorses Jimmy John's.

Dana White looks lost without Ronda Rousey by his side.
NO REMATCH
the fight wasn't even close
I like holly, she's not completely full of herself.
In absolutely no way, shape or form does Rousey merit a rematch. She was completely dominated by Holm, who is clearly a far superior fighter. In any case, Rousey should have to fight Cyborg first. If she manages to win that one (highly doubtful) then she will have earned the privilege of Holm once again repeatedly smashing her fat moon face.
Rousey got humiliated at every moment of the fight, doesn't deserve a rematch at least till she's proved herself again in a couple of matches
god! this woman is so nice I love it ,women don't have to be mean to each other to win, good luck holly
Holly Holm is absolutely perfect in every way. She's a real and genuine woman.
good interview, she handled her self like a true champion
She is very articulate. Very mature and smart.
A Rematch! Too soon. Let Rousey fight Cyborg and the winner of that fight can go on to fight the Champ. MAKES SENSE.
+Vern De Laronde Makes sense? Cyborg is in a different weight class.
I like the new Champion. She is real and humble.
I like the way Holly conducts herself. The sign of a real 'Champ'.
Look at Dana White face he looks mad cause his golden child Ronda Rousey he put on a pedestal got her ass whipped now he already shame!!
0:58 Dana whipes his tears away lol
I like her!! Very professional!!
I'm in love with this woman, so humble.
so glad rousey lost dont like her attitude and she has a big serious face!
such a sweet girl...

Respectful new champion, really happy for her.
So humble and kind. I love her.
Everyone loves a humble champion!!..She respects Rhonda and she understands she can always do better...and that's what it takes to be a good fighter.
its nice to see a good sport and honesty + humbleness= suscess. good luck to both ronda and holly.
She's awesome...
Automatic rematches just fuck shit up. Why does someone have to beat the guy twice? The only time a automatic rematch makes sense is if its a very close fight like gus/jones.. Or if some injury happens. Stop the insanity!
idk why people thought she didn't stand a chance she's been a beast
until this fight people were saying Holly Holm did not had enough time to prepare for Rousey, now it's exactly the opposite... a quick rematch would be in favor of Holly Holm.
Holly Holm shows a lot of grace. Everyone loves a humble champion. I am now a fan. Rhonda Rousey has a lot to learn from this.
This right here sums up why I like her aside from her fighting which is an obvious but as a person/her personality... She isn't cocky, she's humble and has never taken the "sex sells" route for popularity. That automatically makes me respect her far more.
Holly seems so calm and so nice. Glad she won.
A rematch would be great to see again. Holly is very humble and curious to see how reckless Ronda will act again !
There are a lot of great posts on here; also, views that are spot on. I would like to also point out an observation that I used to detect an upcoming defeat, and it goes like this... Holly, don't even control a thing in her camp: The wealth that Holly makes, will be distributed in the fashion according to the "business" of the game. Where in Ronda's corner, it is not that way. She controlled everything if you see what I'm getting at. Simply putting it: it is the people she surrounded herself with, and the lack there of; meaning this... are you going to stand around and work for someone who grows and you don't?
when wealth come into the mix, as the business man would say, "its time to replace the horse that pulls my Wagon" again... if you keep beating the same horse, it will stop pulling one day.
Next is conor mcgregor getting knocked out waych
U r stupid don't compare those two conner a beast not no joke..
+Rigo Martinez ronda a beast too
+Rustin Taghipour yeah + Conor said he was "as good as Ronda"
+1analist he said it because he was being humble.. he thinks he's the best. but if he says anything bad about a woman he knows the media will destroy him so he says he's on par with ronda. but he deep down inside knows the truth that he can own ronda easily
Conor is a good striker, Ronda wasn't.
Funny how Ronda gets the privilege of a rematch, if the story was different and she won, I highly doubt she'd give Holly any second chances and just go on with being the "number one fighter"
this is worst than John cena losing to Funaki
lmao
Why does no reporter call Dana out on how distraught he looks
Dana is over there slaughtering Holly in his head lol he over there lookin like a depressed widow. 😂😭
Rondo tried to fight her at her game, boxing and she got beatup. Next time she has to fight her fight on the ground its her only chance.
+vqfive She already tried but nothing happened, Holly even took Ronda down! ROTFLMAO
3:10 rematch question
how can any one hate on holm not matter what ronda said she still paid respect
"Hello ghost of Christmas past" haha that guy's questions were crap.
I know that Dana feels like hes lost his cash cow but cmon, Holly is awesome! She is much better representative of Martial Arts and professional sports.
I can read Dana's thoughts: "so is this really my new female champ?!"
congrats to Holly, but Ronda didn't train, she was gasing out at the end of the first round.
+coldcoldrain13 Yea, she looked like a fat chick sucking wind.
Wait, she WAS a fat chick sucking wind.
+Red Rov
the other ??????
+coldcoldrain13 Yeah she got a big head and thought this fight would be a cake walk she found out other wise.
Ronda was a flash in the pan - this is a true champion.
As much of a supporter of Ronda Rousey that I am........I can't bring myself to dislike.......or speak disrespectfully of Holly Holm, in any fashion. She appears to be an exceptionally humble person.......a total CLASS ACT. Instead of disliking this woman......I find myself as a fan. I wish her the best.
Rousey's head was SO BIG that it JUST fit inside the stadium dome in that Melbourne fight.
I honestly do not want to see the rematch, unless its a few years from now.
a lot of people couldnt see the failed takedown attempts by ronda. Watch the fight and focus just on what she does, the very first thing she did was try a takedown but holly was slippery and surprisingly good at avoiding them. At one point ronda tried a hipthrow but holly stepped in the right place and actually threw ronda off balance. She successfully avoided takedowns and beat her at her game (kickboxing) and that won her the fight.
Dana is waiting there like.. I RUN THIS MOTHAFUCKA! ASK ME THE QUESTIONS!
Dana White looks so sick at that press conference. lol
for all you people who think based off of this fight that ronda has no boxing skills I would say you simply don't know enough about the human mind to know the real reason behind what happened in this fight or you just dislike ronda. now I'm not trying to have a go or say anybody is stupid or anything I'm just making a point on where I think people have gone wrong. yes she was awful in this fight against holly but she's won in the past with barely getting hit in the face and you can't say that everyone she's fought in the past has shit boxing so there must be a non skill related reason behind why she lost to holly. don't get me wrong holly is sick at mma in general let alone boxing and she did fight the way she was supposed to but I don't think she faced the right ready to go ronda rousy. joe rogan has said that ronda's boxing has become world class and of a professional boxing level and he knows a thing or two about boxing and mma so her performance is not a reflection on her skills.
I'd say she's had the same problem mike tyson had, not because of the same reason but still the same problem. she was majorly intimidated by holly's boxing and mma record and skills that she started to doubt the effectiveness of her own skills and then like mike tyson she lost faith in herself completely and the fight was effected. this is why she acted odd and overly aggressive during the weigh ins which she hasn't done before despite having reasons to do so. everything was just off in this fight and her simply moving forward towards punches in the face just goes to show she was off, I'm not saying she can definitely beat holly but if she get's her head together and believes in herself like she has before then the rematch will turn out far differently then this fight did.
+james haliburn Well, Joe Rogan says lots of silly things. Don't get me wrong Joe knows his stuff when it comes to BJJ, but he was a bit hyperbolic when he says things like Ronda's boxing is "world class". Holly Holm's boxing actually is world class. Most of Ronda's previous opponents didn't properly use lateral movement to evade Ronda's bullrushing style. They would often sit in the pocket and try and hit back with a haymaker get clinched up and then tossed. Plus, you have to factor most of Ronda's previous opponents didn't have the experience in the combat arts that she did. Plus, Ronda is a big fighter for her weight class. She does have good power but the is not the be all end all to be a good boxer.Holly was the first fighter she fought that had comparable(if not more) experience, size and her ringcraft and ability move laterally are what led to her winning.Ronda did the same things she always does. Charges straight ahead swinging trying to clinch up for a toss and then ground and pound. When that failed she didn't seem to have a plan B and it all went to shit for her after that.What Ronda needs to do is get a new striking coach that can teach her about angles and pacing and distance. She was severely outclassed in these areas.Not trying to be jerky, just calling them as I see them.
Web Developer that's not even a mature factual argument against what I've said so well done!! good adulting right there xD
henrylicious if you're saying she was doing the same in this fight that she's done in every other fight then why did she become tired within 1 round yet she never got tired during her fights with tate despite the tate fights having more constant action in them ? ronda came out swinging for the fences putting everything behind her punches and when it didn't work she tried to go for a take down and then swing for the fences more which is why she was gassed out within 1 round, do you really think she swings for the fences every time she boxes with someone in the octagon ? even if her fighting style was the same as it's always been, she was still mentally defeated way before the weigh ins let alone the fight and that self doubt and lack of determination plays a big part in how much damage your head and body can take. emotions effect physical performance and this is why no offence to holly but she didn't face the peak ronda that she should of.
I'm not trying to dull down holly's performance because it was sick, maybe I'm way off in my opinion but to me it looked like ronda being coached and led by her frustrations not by a clear confident mind.
+james haliburn "she didn't face the peak ronda that she should of."She most certainly did. The reason she became tired in the first round is because she never fought a true pro before. Everyone she fought up until now are amateurs, especially compared to Holly. Holly had full control of that fight from the get go. It was basically sparring practice for her. Rousey would be an idiot to step in the octagon with her again. She isn't, by any stretch of the imagination, a match for Holly.
Mick0722MX no offence but you do not know the difference between purely kickboxing and kickboxing mixed with loads of grappling and the effect added grappling has on energy. you use around 3 times more energy when grappling is added, it doesn't matter how amateur someone is, if they're grappling with you for most of multiple rounds you will use way more energy compared to even the best female kickboxer ever who is just kickboxing with you for 1 round. this bit of information isn't me being biased toward ronda it's just a fact that many people have stated for many years in mma, having to move around with a whole other human body and use pretty much all your muscles near max is more effort then simply bouncing yourself around and kickboxing. did ronda seem tired when having this grappling match with meisha for multiple rounds ? no far from it and you can't say meisha is small for the weight class because she obviously isn't. yet this and the fact that she trains for multiple rounds all the time somehow didn't prepare her and wasn't enough for her to be able to last only 1 round just kickboxing ? also it wasn't even a furious first round with loads of punches and kicks either.
come on man it's not like her to last only 1 round and get tired and it's not like her to just continuously run into punches and not want to change her game plan or just move her head at all.
No offense, but I don't need you telling me what I know and what I don't know.
No offense again, but you really don't know what you're talking about.
Holly is in a completely different league than Rousey, and as long as Holly continues training, that will never change.
Bruce lee "Be water my friend" now ik what it means..!!
Dana White absolutely hated that Rhonda lost.
Ronda Will NOT take a rematch right away !
Dana - killed his golden goose. This was the worst match-up for Ronda at this stage of her career. Holly is a strong kick boxer and boxer and is much bigger than Ronda. Wrong match at the wrong time.
+Robert Miller But Holly is nowhere near Ronda's level when it comes to judo and ground game. Each fighter has their strengths and weaknesses. If Ronda would would have won, people would be saying it was the worst match-up for Holm at that stage in her career.
Well clearly the judo didn't do shit to help her win lmao
+bagofcupcakes lmao I know. Holly came to fight
+johnbs199 Ronda's ground game clearly isn't as strong as you think - Holly was barely on the ground and Ronda got grounded by Holms physically and mentally lol #humbled
same weight
Ronda should face Cyborg next, so she can end Rousey's career.
+LYNN LOVE I think Holly is perfectly capable of doing that. Cyborg isn't necessary.
Ronda Rousey will always be the best and she deserves a rematch i look up to her and next time it will be HOLLY HOLM ON THE FLOOR and that's the truth
Lmao😂😂😂😂😂😂 stfu, Holm will outbox and kick to the retirement
How fucked are you in the head? How can you like someone who is such a cocky bitch? Have you seen her Instagram ?!?
What did you think of the Rousey Nunes bout...
One more thing... if you look at Dana, he's standing there thinking, 'Who can I get to beat the hell out of this chick'
holms dominated Ronda in every second of that fight !!
This fight is quite similar to ali vs liston except that its ali the challenger who made all the noises before the fight unlike here where the reigning champ made lot of noises and ended up losing very badly....lesson 1: never consider yourself as great and make predictions like "going to retire without losing a fight" unless you are ali. lesson 2: better touch your opponent glove b4 the match.
Why be so modest, ronda had never fought a fighter with a boxing tradition. Boxers seem to have always garnished the more athletic people involved in combat sports. Boxing has proven itself once more to be superior to chocking and wrestling.
So who else predicts Ronda will be even more aggressive in the rematch and use up all of her energy before getting knocked out again? Cuz I sure do.
She's such an inspiring woman. Love Holly.
dana thinking about his money bet big loss..lol
He should've pulled a Pulp Fiction and told Holly, in the 5th, your ass goes down! Or in this case the 2nd! xD
I like Holly she is very humble she is going to be very successful...
rematch is not going to make any difference Holly is stronger . Ronda underestimated Holly
She's going to be awesome for this sport. Marketers are already lining up to sign her. If she can hold the title, look out.
Really entertaining fight, it's pretty awesome to see a moment like that in the fight game. I think that this is the best example of a game plan executed perfectly. It'll be interesting to see how Ronda fights in the rematch though, now that her Cockiness has been severely damaged lol, It should make for a much more competitive fight. Holm will win a stand up fight anyday, Rousey will win a grappling fight. This is your quintessential Boxer vs. Judo practician. Hopefully Ronda learns how to throw a technical punch, I'd really love to see these two at their best. Props to Holly, perfect fight for her.
+jumbalyiajefferson Holly is already past her prime and she still decimated Ronda. And what makes you think Ronda can win a grappling fight against Holly Holm?. Holly took Ronda down - it was almost a suplex. Ronda couldn't keep Holly down in her half-assed takedown attempt. Holly is stronger than Ronda. Ronda can't win on the ground against Holly or she would have.
Red Rover An experienced submission artist will obviously let a boxer take her down, it's pretty much giving her a shot at your arm without having to work for the takedown. You clearly don't know that much about MMA. and womens mma is so new that someone as skilled at striking would obviously beat the female equivalent to Royce gracie. Ronda is an Olympic Judo athlete, what makes YOU think a boxer could beat her at her own game? If she would've won you would've been dickriding the other way, saying oh Holly's past her prime, obviously Ronda would submit her. I literally guarantee you'd say that lol
+jumbalyiajefferson You are saying Ronda LET Holly nearly suplex her? Hahaha. Talking about dickriding...
Holly so humble~true champion she is~ well done~:)
For someone whose stand up game got dismantled so easily, there would be no point in a rematch because the out come would be obvious. The fact is Rousey got exposed, she came up against a fighter who was far superior then she was physically and skill set wise. No point in a rematch, unless you want to see her ass kicked again. Which i wouldn't mind.
holly, I love your chubby look. I'm here to say you made rhonda look like total noob. Keep smashing them records :D
+Jackey Niraula True she´s so hot curvy yet ripped at big press her legs looked supa hot on those jeans and at the weight ins her abs looked amazing not to mention her bubble booty. So glad she won she´s humble,girly,hot and she kicks mayor ass.
All of you guys are hating on Ronda when if she would have won you would be hating on holly they are both amazing athletes and deserve a rematch
Rhonda will have to go to Bali first to see Ketut before rematch.
what? no she doesn't. she proved that her skillet isn't worthy of a rematch with a fighter as discipline as holly
She has a champion's attitude unlike Ronda who was thinking of vacation and her Hollywood career.
3:40 Randy Orton slithering.
a idol has fallen :( the dark side clouds everything !!!
I don't understand the second rematch. Is Ronda going to suddenly learn boxing as well as other traits which Holly has studied and learned for the past 10 years? No.
I love Holly's attitude
Even the best fighters doubt themselves sometimes? Hmm, interesting. So real strength IS will! And if you pay attention, you can feel HOW strong your will is, can in turn can be.
omg i still don't believr two things...undertaker loosing to brock and ronda loosing to holy holm. i k'ow she is a great athlete but i didn't expect that match ! well deserved
Undertaker? Grown up people still watch that shit?
Man i know that it's bullcrap but i just like the story that is going on .you should watch it
I just gotta comment. There is something going on behind the scenes in the Rousey camp. First there is the interview with Ronda's mother stating that her daughter's coach is not doing his job. Say what you want, but when someone as accomplished and experienced as Dr. De Mars speaks up in such a negative way just weeks before a fight one must take pause and wonder why. Then there is the bankruptcy of Ronda's striking coach. There stress caused to a person going through this process is significant and can only serve to distract the coach from his coaching responsibilities. Then there are all of Ronda's distractions; too many interviews, too many movies, too much talking, too many things to distract her from the primary vehicle that took her to the world stage. And then there as the embarrassing weigh in when Ronda's arm got tangled with Holly's causing Holly's fist to touch Ronda's face. Ronda's reaction to this was almost incoherent, almost babbling indicating a state of mind that was unfocused at the least. Certainly not in a state ready for a world class fight. And lastly, Ronda's refusal to touch gloves before the fight. This is unbecoming for a woman who has showed so much class in her other activities, and her charities. It's almost like it was scripted by Mike Tyson. A poor role model indeed. And then there is the fight....This is Ronda's coaching I saw. "Ok Rhonda, get really really mad and make that scary face, then go in there and lead with your chin, and then do that Judo thing that you're so good at. Then we'll have some beers with the Aussies after you win...." Holly on the other hand looked focused and hungry. She has been nothing but respectful and thankful for the opportunity for a title fight. I saw nothing but her thoughtful respect leading up to the fight. At the weigh in I saw Holly as a chiseled warrior confident in her abilities and somewhat aghast at her opponents antics. Where Ronda was somewhat fleshy, Holly was crisp.Holly's coaching looked to be razor sharp. No movies, not too much talk, clear thinking and respect for the process... "Ok Holly, here's our game. Don't go to her strengths, don't go to the mat, and if you get on the mat stand up and get away. TURN this into your strength, make it a boxing match. When she advances, hit her in the face. After twenty or thirty blows she will be confused and tired. Then when the time is right, let go the big dog and put a foot up along the side of her head, and it will our turn for beers and green chilly fries..." I like Ronda but her actions do not reflect her upbringing. She is being influenced by people who have ulterior motives and has become a little too full of herself. The fight game must be full of unsavory types, all looking to take a piece of the champion's fame, until the foundation of the champion's success is undermined. Ronda will never beat Holly unless she gets un-conflicted coaching and learns how to box. It will be an interesting journey.I also like Holly Holm, the new champion. Something like 18 boxing titles, and now the MMA title. She deserves all the accolades for a very professional fight. Good for her! But I would not be so quick to accept a rematch. Let Ronda stew in her own juices for a while. Take on a few other challengers before giving Ronda her opportunity. Do what's best for Holly....Anyway, great fight and it's like my father said, "Why bring a knife to a gun fight?"Brad Deal
+Brad Deal Tarverdyan is probably going to go under for fraud. Armenians in Glendale apparently have a thing for debt evasion/fraud, and rumor is Tarverdyan has a significant gambling problem
Dude I read you whole comment and than I saw it was only quarter of it. Few more words and it can be a book... "Why bitch lost" title.
Keep shorter bro
+Brad Deal Good analysis.
excuses, excuses. Holly is just better. It's no ones fault
