Especially the ass whoopings you can't explain away as they just got caught. The Fedor v Big Foot fight was my :to: moment. Folks I hadn't talked to in years hit me up to rub that one in

I was at that fight in the IZOD Center, it looked like half the russian mob was up in there

That was a way worse beating than it looked on TV

Ronda, PVZ, Northcutt, and Conor could all take Ls within a one month time frame.

I don't think Dana could handle that emotionally :huhldup:

And then the prodigal son, GSP returns to bail Dana out with a couple of massive PPV's for 2016 while the next generation licks its wounds :banderas:

Dana White: Criticizing Ronda Rousey's gameplan against Holly Holm is 'stupid'

"You know, it's funny because all the people that were talking smack about the fight, everybody thinks they're an expert and everybody thinks they know about fighting. Very few people really do," White said. "To sit here now and question the gameplan is just as stupid as the people who thought this wasn't a good fight."

So having Rousey stand and trade with a boxing champion is a good idea? :dwillbald:

I actually thought Ronda did her best to clinch so she wasn't trying to outbox Holm. Ronda got close and Holm was elusive and when Ronda finally got a good clinch, Holly was way stronger than Ronda expected. She couldn't outmuscle like she normally does. In fact I think the only take down in the fight was by Holm.

Ronda didn't expect that kind of TDD. Ronda needs to train to grapple BJJ takedowns and wrestling takedowns. Holm must've got some Judo sparring partners.
