"Everybody have a plan until they get punch in the face"
Mike Tyson
blackcobra1981 mouth, but I feel you
+Rudy Montana mayweather andre ward rocky marciano chavez sr jon jones not for them
Ronda is strong and a lot techniques
Sonny Itucal really ?
* "Everybody hath a plan until they get punched in the faith"
Mike Tyson
If she loses this next fight she is 1000% done
they will rig them so she does win
true, she won't even fight cyborg after that
She's not Jordan or Bron like if you consider taking your life after a loss instead of learning from it your not a real champ or competitor.
Gary P. Did you just call lebron a champ? He hasn't won a championship without help of two allstar caliber players. That's facts. Bron also has a losing record in the finals. He's a great player but you can't compare him to Jordan. That's also facts.
RyanWattz1 didn't compare him to Jordan he was used as an example for the subject at hand as someone who lost and still won and not try to off themselves it clearly is not about labron and his supporting cast.
Gary, exactly. Thank you!!
Getting knocked out is considerably different to losing a basketball game.
0:50 - "She's special...she has that thing" Meaning, she's marketable because I like how she looks.
Skip is clearly on drugs. Even at her peak Ronda was NOT as big as Lebron James or Floyd mayweather. Don't be silly now.
Fifagod you kidding me? Even if you weren't a UFC fan you couldn't get away from Rhonda rousey. She was up there in popularity like
John Cena
Lebron James
Floyd
Tom Brady
Agree. My cousin in Germany never heard about her until she got stomped by Holly Holm.
Big Star in North America? Yes, worldwide?? Nope
Futbol players are extremely popular worldwide. Everybody in China, Germany, Iran, Turkey knows who Messi is. Rousey was just a star in the U.S. and Canada, probably Mexico.
Bigger than James? No. Bigger than Mayweather? Maybe.
We Walk Among Giants She's not even close to Mayweather just look at the numbers.
Fifagod If you think mayweather is the best boxer you know nothing about boxing. -Mike Tyson.
I can name a few who are a bigger draw and star power. LeBron, Curry, Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Mayweather and even McGregor.
Please stop the nonsense.. Lebron, Federer, Ronaldo, Messi, Phelps.. just to name a few SUPERSTARS.. Ronda doesn't even come close to these athletes in fame and success.
Chico Chicone Maccarone every 4 years tho
bolt wins meets year round dude whenever he chooses to attend.
She's bigger than lebron internationally
@joey tribbiani Is that really true? Isn't NBA games watched around the world? I'm a clueless American.
Haha yes Haley it is true. The rest of the world aren't massive fans of basketball. maybe a few countries here and there.
on the other hand everyone's a fan of fighting.
The main argument against Dana here is, he's comparing Rousey to athletes in an established sport. Not only is the UFC fairly young as a sport, but that division is especially new and so is the talent. Perhaps we've been fooled by Rousey since the beginning. What if she was just a "good" combat sports athlete in a division full of unprovens? Only time will tell.
Ahh... and then 12:17 happens. Bones shouldn't be used as the quintessential fighter. Anderson Silva should be. Just shows how newly popularized this sport is.
Luke Grothe it's because of how people tainted Silva's image although I believe Bones is completely worse example
@@ChidorivsRasengan3 why is Silva’s image tainted?
@@Lukrative ye i dont think he should either but after saturday ppl are jus gonna pile on more and claim hes the goat. At the time, mma and the ufc was newly popularized and jon had so many controversies. Who do you think should be the quintessential fighter?
@@paolothorpe1461 Jones had three toss up fights leading to his 3 year break. He hand picked his return vs Gane the way boxers hand pick their opponents. He knew Gane had no wrestling ability and wasn't going to be able to reach him. Reminded me of when McGregor waited for Alvarez to become champion to fight for that title. Was very smart to get Gane wrestling in the feeling out stages. But Valentina is the perfect example to what I was speaking on with Rousey. The women's divisions still have a long way to go. Jones could still become that fighter, but I have my doubts. Silva was different and even when he took the DC fight a few years back on 2 days notice, he still scared him when he landed a few shots that were too good, so Cormier took it right to the ground.
Rousey's hype died a year ago. Move on Dana.
jaimedavila1 Haven't seen her show up for anything notable since last summer...
Jafninetyfour when she comes back it will be one of the biggest cards ever, don't trip. Dana know what sells, you don't
They need to have more NBA talk on this show. Maybe things will change when the season starts
nothing to talk about atm, season needs to start.
amen
Talk about preseason games? They talk golden state, lebron, d wade.
She a good fighter,but doesn't deserve a title shot.
Jamal Talbert how so? she did defend her belt way longer than any of the othet girls. im curious to see what you say but you can argue because she hasn't been in the fight game
Tyler Mothershed She took a year off.She should have a couple of fights before fighting for the title.Dana White wants his Cash cow back.
Exactly.... its about the money man ronda brings in alot of money thats exactly why shes fighting but I think this will be her last fight forsure.
i disagree because she's the ONLY female who went 12 - 0 AND ... make sure you read this slowly: DEFENDED HER TITLE SIX TIMES successfully.
the person who defeated her lost the next fight.
than that person lost her next fight.
you saying she doesn't "deserve" a shot I don't agree with
if it wasn't for her their wouldn't even be woman in UFC so she deserves a shot
skip said you cant play defense in ufc and win but thats exactly how GSP and other greg jackson fighters used to fight super defensively
Skip is so much better with Shannon than with S.A.S. Shannon is so much better than S.A.S....
I love the fact they don't sit there and scream at each other. They talk like adults and not children. Sharpe is underrated hes one of the best.
David McCrea
I think they're boring. I like the intensity and passion that Stephen A brings. It's funny. Like barbershop talk.
Skip and Shannon bring up great points, but there's no "flavor" there. Seems more like a church sermon.
Despite his recent "All Lives Matter" comments, in no way whatsoever was Rousey ever as big as Floyd Mayweather. As a matter of fact, didn't she have to exploit his name to grow her own celebrity? Indeed, Rousey, in essence was just a corporate media creation developed to spite Floyd's in-ring success & overshadow Serena Williams' on-court success in 2015. This is why she was promoted so aggressively & was oddly "awarded" the ESPY's for Fighter of the Year & Female Athlete of the Year respectively. Undoubtedly, there were so many people who had never heard of Rousey before 2015, & mainstream sports media networks did not even care about MMA (especially WMMA), but somehow she was dubbed the best athlete in the world seemingly out of nowhere, after just competing in a very new sport for only 4 years (without even fighting someone like Cris Cyborg). Certainly, it's noble of Dana White to take some responsibility for Rousey's loss to Holly Holm, however I know not of one fighter in the world who does MORE media than Floyd Mayweather (look at how much media he did for the Pacquiao fight). In addition to this, Floyd promotes all of his own fights, runs his own promotion company, manages his own stable of fighters, as well as building & marketing his own TMT empire.
Yet, in spite of his many duties/responsibilities outside of the ring, Floyd has won all of his fights. It didn't matter what distractions he had to deal with outside of boxing, he simply showed up & defeated world class, championship fighters each & every time (49-0). Rousey cannot say that (after all Holly Holm was no killer, she was expected to be Rousey's Andre Berto). Also, Mcgregor can't say this either. After Mcgregor lost to Diaz back in March, he blamed his media obligations for keeping him out of training. Honestly, I find this rather ironic, seeing that both of these fighters were busy calling out Floyd, exclaiming that they were on his level. However, when the dust settled & the smoke cleared, we all saw the cold, hard truth: there is only one Floyd Mayweather! In effect, this is a man who does all of his own promotion & fights elite boxing world champions, all the while facing media scrutiny that Rousey & Mcgregor will never have to endure themselves. And yet, despite all of these challenges, he overcame the odds & always found a way to win. Always! Now, if Floyd would just stop it with the empty-headed social commentary...
I agree with the Ronda Point but not the Mcgregor Part......Floyd Could always do his Interviews when he wanted to he was in charge of himself....There was a point in Conor's Career he was only home for 24 days out of a year.....that's Insane....I Don't think anyone will be undefeated In the UFC ever there's just to many Variables....All boxers agree..........Keith Thurman just got done Calling out Floyd on His opponents They're not Elite....In the UFC you dont get to pick your next opponent....You have to Face the next Person on the Ranking List.....Do you know what Floyd never had to deal with? Facing Short Notice Opponents Like Conor Did his entire Career......That's the only reason he lost to Nate he fought him on 11 day Notice and A weight Class he never fought in!........Conor had 6 UFC fighters back out on him in the UFC and he had to fight someone else he didnt train for......He Dana Ran boxing Like he does the UFC Floyd wouldve lost a long time Ago.
He did not blame his media obligations once, but okay.
@zion: He did actually, isn't that why he didn't go to the UFC 200 press conference (saying that the media was too much for him & it took too much time away from his training--and even when the fight was signed with Diaz he still went back & forth with the UFC over media responsibilities). He also used weight as an excuse, saying that he didn't expect Diaz's size to be such a factor in the fight, even though they didn't really grapple at all @ UFC 196 (however before the fight he told Diaz not to use the excuse for not having a full camp as reason for losing). And if I'm not mistaken, wasn't Mcgregor's mantra "the opponent is an illusion" & it is actually "you vs you" inside the cage, the best always adapt & overcome & he "would die" before he ever taps out again. So how come people are giving him excuses for losing to an opponent that, in his mind, does not exist?
Joe Lates you're just looking for every little excuse to hate on the guy and ignore all the chances the guy takes.......you respect Floyd for taking no chances and playing it safe his entire career.....but give no respect to conor who is complete opposite of him......and conor is a knockout artist he comes to fight everytime.
Joe Lates Your wording suggested that he blamed the media obligations for the loss itself, not his preparation for 200. And he never did use weight as an excuse, just a fact that happened to be true. He put blame on himself, saying he had not prepared accordingly for someone who would be as tough and durable as Nate. Had he prepared for 196 like he prepared for 202 i dont believe the narrative would be the same but i digress. Ate the end of the day he didnt blame the weight for his loss he blamed his cardio and his lack of preparation for the bigger man and for 202 I dont remember what he wanted exactly, but you're correct in saying he blamed media obligations from taking time away from his preparation
UFC really coming up. Thanks to Ronda and Connor
Annihilating opponents via ARMBAR? GTFOH! Annihilating opponents is what Cris Cyborg does.
I love Shannon but that is no longer how the UFC sets fights. Belt holders no longer fight #1 contenders. McGregor case in point
Jones is probably the only consistent winning fighter.
Slan St. Pierre, Wonderboy, Woodley, Tony Ferguson, Matt Brown, Demetrius Johnson, Dominic Cruz, there are many that win consistently
Wesley Ford isn't Matt brown on losing streak right now?
Wesley Ford and woodley has lost to Jake ellenberger and Rory MacDonald
no the king of consistency was GSP
Undershot Melo gsp was knocked out by Matt Sera
I think a lot of the blame goes on her choice of coach, Edmund. Edmund is a 3rd tier coach. Holly is a Championship boxer with like 35-2 record or something crazy, and she is also extremely athletic with explosive kicks. Edmund hyped Ronda up and said and boosted Ronda's confidence in striking.
Ronda is a bronze medalist in Judo with the best armbar on the woman's side. Edmund should have exploited Holly's weakness in the clench/ground game and told Ronda to avoid striking at all costs instead of standing in the pocket like she did.
I think if Ronda changed coaches and rededicated herself, she is young enough to where she could be a powerhouse again, but who knows what's in her future.
Yeah i agree.. if you listen to JRE or any interview with Edmund, he was pumping her up as a professional boxer that could stand with anyone.
JohnnyBunning i have told so many people that she has the worst coach in history for a world champion.
JohnnyBunning she won't be able to use the clinch in her fight against Nunes. As soon as she tries to close the distance to use her Judo she's gonna get tagged. Nunes has too much punching power and is too good of an athlete to let Ronda man handle her with the takedowns and ground game. Plus IMO I've never been impressed with Ronda's BJJ
Yeah, good points. You always want to watch tape on the opponent and exploit a weakness. You NEVER try to go toe to toe with their best technique or fighting style. You do what you do and you try to compete. She got out boxed and it was embarrassing.
true story. Edmund is a pathetic excuse for a championship level coach. Travis brownes recent fights have been a testament of that
"Nobody thought McGregor was going to lose" umm he already had before Nate lol geez just be silent & look pretty lol
Louis Moody he hasn't lost in the ufc besides nate is what they're getting at.
"Signature move the arm bar. WE NEVER SEeN ANYTHING LIKE THAT" HAVE YOU NEVER HERD OF RICKSON GRACIE SKIP?
From a woman
I know it was probably unintentional, but close to 6 minutes, it sounded like Shannon was taking shots at Jamie Foxx.
Dang Shannon I'm not mad at that suit at all! #fresh #customfit
Plz don't ever compare Ronda to Jordan. Ronda has been on top for 2 years while Jordan has been on top for 2 generations just stop.
Adrien Broner's career is the perfect example for Sharp's point.
I honestly don't see Ronda beating Nunes. Nunes is an all around better athlete than Ronda. While Nunes doesn't have the technical striking that Holm has, she has more power in her fists. The thing that's really going to do Ronda wrong is that all her takedowns come from the clinch, and while her Judo is great, she's gonna get tagged a bunch of times trying to close the distance. I'll say Nunes by TKO in the 3rd
JON GOAT JONES DONT LOSE. FACT
facts
Matt Hamill destroyed him with head butts to the elbow. You must be on drugs
M. a n
Do those guys know who C. Cyborg is? Rosey has always been overrated.
Marco D cyborg good, but she used steriods before
So does every fighter
Cyborg's draw is tainted because of the drug use, and she could never draw like Ronda because 1) Ronda was blitzing girls and making the appeal of her fights being how fast she could win. And 2) Ronda isn't supermodel pretty but she looks very objectively good, which is unexpected for a female fighter. Like it or not, that has a big factor in why a girl in her position draws attention.
Everyone in the UFC uses steroids...Cyborg just got caught
You're a fool lol
I wanna see a Ronda vs Holly pt2
I like skip but COME ON. MAYBE she rivaled MJ? NO WAY. Not even LbJ
Aidan Maloney just imagine if she was still undefeated
Aidan Maloney not even Kobe Bryant lol
He said globally, LeBron's not much of a Global star
Yeah he is, think about his sponsorship with Nike and all of the shoes they sold all around world. LeBron is a much bigger global star
Well I'm not from america, so I think I do bring the global perspective
And truthfully he's not that popular outside of america
Skip just did a Google & Wiki search of "mma, Ronda Rousey, UFC, women's mma" during commercial break before the Rousey segment....
Ronda didn't do what she was suppose to do. She tried to outbox Holly, no chance there, she was messy and was gassed. She fell in love with her hands when she beat the Brazillian loudmouth a fight before Holly's. She needs to go back to her roots with Nunez
Even her roots aren't legit. Judo? Basically don't ever let her grapple you and you can beat the shi out of her. The womens division has way more talent now. Nunes, Pena, Cyborg, etc can all do what Holm did 3x. She got exposed badly. She doesn't have movement and can't adjust when she gets hit in the face.
Nunes has a brown belt in judo so its going to be tough to take her down.
Everyone that's in the top 5 has a brown belt in something. Don't ever let her grapple you? That's like telling a guy just don't let a BJJ guy take you down. It would be an interesting match for sure, Rhonda didn't fight her right against Holly, she just ran in and threw heavy punches that missed most of the time. At least Tate stuck to her game plan and eventually got her to the ground. Nunes can knock Rhonda out, no question, but Nunes can also bet taken down and worn out. Don't even mention Cyborg, she has so much 'roids in her blood she'll fail the next drug test and it'll be tested to see if she's a women
Frank Heck
"That's like telling a guy just don't let a BJJ guy take you down." Okay? So are you saying that ISN'T a gameplan to neutralize roussey? So you think opponenets trainers are going to say, "Let ronday grab you." You say it as if that ALREADY isn't the gameplan and can't be executed. Holm use consistent movement and didn't allow ronda to grapple her. This is something that ALL THE GIRLS can execute. SHe got exposed. She can't move, she can't strike, she can't adjust.
Ronda can't armbar her way to a victory everytime. Yeah tate eventually got her to the ground but holm was surviving against tate. Thats my point, you force ronda to stay up with movement and consistent strikes. You say she didn't fight her right? Bro, its deeper than that. Its the fact that she can't FIGHT against movement. SHE GOT EXPOSED.This isn't some, "oh just do this different and his career is back on track." No bro, SHE GOT EXPOSED BADLY. Nunes and Pina are better strikers than ronda. The "fear" of ronda is done. These girls are COMING FOR HER.
it's not as easy as not letting her grab you. no one wants Damien Maia to get them down but he does it anyway
Shannon is right about being all in. Look at Roy Jones Jr. He got serious about rapping and acting. Everybody knows the rest.
i have a channel that covers boxing. check it out if it's not too much trouble bro
Happy to see her comeback now its time to back her throne
Yup, Shannon is on point. MMA is way too dangerous and competitive of a sport to not give your 100% to it. And with Ronda, she was becoming a pretty big movie star as well. It's hard to stay motivated when you make just as much in Hollywood as you do in UFC. Also, UFC is a heavily promoted sport. Doing promotions also takes away from your training. It was a multitude of factors that led to her loss. No greats ever not give their 100% to the sport they played.
Ronda wasnt even the biggest draw in the Ufc....mcgregor was and still is
''I don't think you can play defense in this sport'' direct quote from skip bayless. He sure is knowledgeable enough to talk about the sport.
listening to skip talk mma is hilarious haha
The good thing about ufc, like Shannon said, is Rhonda vs Nunes will be an amazing fight...
Fighters are Getting better and more well rounded! Mma it's a different game today #ufc207
I agree with my man shannon!
First take lost all credibility when they didn't talk about rousey getting ktfo. That was weak
Ok I gotta be honest Shannon is LEGIT.
Shannon as usual is 100% correct. Just look at Gina Carano, she made the smart move going to movies.
these guys don't have no experience talking UFC. skip hardly knows football
Oscar del la hoya and Floyd was probably by far one of the biggest fights in boxing history
it's the 2nd most watched ppv of all time
3rd most watched. Canelo vs Floyd was the 2nd most watched.
Joe Lates No Floyd-Canelo generated more revenue but brought in less buys.
canelo vs floyed was sponsored by Mexico and the fight was pretty much free everywhere except in the U.S or if you can't get the Mexican stations
Joe Lates yes, alberto cruz is correct. floyd-oscar had more ppv buys
She's Mike Tyson after Buster Douglas
i hate this guy saying Skip the whole time
McGregor is bigger than Ronda ever was.
Skip will say it when Dana isn't in the room of course.
At least Skip isn't calling her Holly Holms anymore like he used to
yo skip a fool he said I think you just grew out of his music
She had 1 bad fight and has only lost 1 time in her mma career. I don't care if she lost the mystique of invincibility. Invincibility is not real. Tyson lost, Ali lost, the same team doesn't win the Super Bowl every year. She was going to lose eventually if she kept fighting and wasn't picking and choosing favorable match ups. I want to see how she comes back from a loss because I haven't seen that yet. We saw how Holly came back from a loss, she lost again. When Shannon talks about Holly losing her next fight after she beat Ronda, he's talking about Holly losing to a woman Ronda beat twice. All the evidence points to Ronda not being focused leading up to the loss and not having a good game plan to deal with a superior boxer who specializes in counter punching. She's still a star.
Yes you can play defense in this sport- GSP
If Ronda wins or even goes the distance I'll be impressed. Nunes seems really legit and dangerous and I don't hate Ronda but I fear that she could get knocked out by Nunes.
You were so right.
How does this guy know all this if he's never experienced it? He can state an opinion, but he's talking like all of what he's saying is fact; it's not.
she is badass. shut them all up Ronda
"I Dont think you can play defense in this sport" - Skip Bayless ...... -_- -_- -_- bruh go watch a dominick cruz fight and get back at me, and thats just stand up(i say that cuz he was talking about floyd) thats not even getting into defense in grappling, wrestling, clinch, etc.... i swear the only reason he got into ufc was because fox has the rights to it and hes on fox now... how you make a comment like that
Shout-out to Cupcake Tate!!
I would bet my check on Rousey...Easy money.
In MMA, you can't win by just playing defense. You have to be able to hurt your opponent to win. That combined with the fact that the best has to fight the best ensures nobody will ever be undefeated. Jon Jones will eventually lose if he can fight in the octagon and continues to fight the very best.
John Dodson arguably beat John Lieniker in his last fight. He pulled a rope-a-dope strategy. Although he did not win the fight, a lot of fighters felt he won (it was a very close fight & Dodson outstruck Lieniker overall). This was a defensive strategy that he employed & he walked away from the fight with no visible damage. Surely, you can win in MMA as a defensive fighter, look at how Stephen Thompson defeated Rory McDonald. All you have do is know what the judges are looking for. Certainly, as a fighter, if you are a smart, athletic & technical enough, you can figure out how to win defensively.
Ever heard of Mighty Mouse
Exactly, the #1 P4P fighter.
The fact that Holly Holms lost to a lady that Rhonda can beat whit her eyes closes, makes me think that Holly Holms got Lucky. And Rhonda can beat her in a rematch. Everyone is jumping on Rhonda, but how bad Holly look , for loosing her first title defense ?
+Rasuke11 yeah sure
she's lost in judo olympics and went to this I think she'll be back
What happen to the other girl? Nothing against Joy but I enjoyed the show even more so with the other girl.
Conor got three or four loses at this time
What are you talking about - Who is Lebron? I dont know who that is.
Back when the show was good
I think they forget its mma its real hard to stay
Undefeated💯💯💯 not like boxing Where are you can hide😂😂
Ronda is a tomato can. She just needs to go to movies.
The fact that someone as basic as Holm beat her shows that she just had a bad fight. Her opponent is whack; Rousey had an off day...
She fought bums! Fight Cyborg!
i just can´t listen to shannon talk about fighting, the part with how dominant ronda was because holly got beat, is just redicules it says nothing about road because she won against misha 2 times before misha beat holly! Ronda has won 9 straight or what ever and just maybe got to chill and thought she could beat everyone because she had up until then and when she fought holly she she had the wrong gameplan etc. but because she lost one you are doubting her dominance? thats just bonkers she will come back and survive tunes first round and then just toy with her!
Not really.
Sorry Shannon, but Will Smith's music suffered before his acting career started
Bones Jones is the only undisputed of the UFC.
Tell that that to Khabib
Gina carano fought in the first fight. I can't remember the other woman's name. Years before Rhonda. She's a beast but not the first.
what about Messi in football (scoccer) There are living in a dream world
why did he mention LeBron. he's not even close to a worldwide star like Jordan or Rousey. He's a star in america for sure but that's it.
Brian Wilson bruh... You high?
Hes not on a Jordan recognition worldwide. I know hes huge in America but really thats it.
yeah on second thought i agree
Ronda was not worldwide, calm down. America is not "worldwide"
Exactly, ppl in other continents didn't know who that heffer was
Who wins: Rousey or Nunes?
Nunes.
Nunes
The fix is in Nunes takes a dive and Rousey makes a triumphant comeback. The UFC wants Cyborg v Rousey to happen. Not to mention America loves a good 'ol comeback story smh.
UNDISPUTED ON FS1 Nunes, not even close
UNDISPUTED ON FS1 Nunes
She brings in the views. Obviously!
Stop it Rhonda is not in that category
ya but international star power would have to be ronaldo hes the most popular professional athlete
Skip blows harder than Rowsey
well Connor never defended his belt,UFC is becoming more like boxing nowadays 💲
cocoy bibit so dont watch
shivansh srivastava haha didn't really watch that lepricaun
cocoy bibit gud
I dont understand how or why Ronda is considered the biggest draw in ufc history. I'm on forbes looking at buy rates, she has zero records, and nothing in top five. Go on wikipedia (lol) and look. No records for overall attendance, attendance in the us, ppv buys, or gate. So how is she the biggest star in ufc? Because she was Ellen?
She did set a few attendance/ PPV records but I think Mcgregor broke most of them. Plus what other UFC fighter has been in that many movies or given that many interviews in mainstream media. Everyone knows who she is even if you don't follow the UFC you know shes that "fighter girl"
If your coming to FS1 or ESPN for your MMA debates and discussions then you're looking in the wrong place. These dudes don't know anything about the sport of MMA. Try the Joe Rogan Experience, and try the Fighter and the Kid. Not this
Or Chael Sonnen's You're Welcome
Badass lol
Shannon really first fighter there was many more before her Gina carano was the first one to be famous like rousey, she has said that carano was her inspiration
Luis Baez rousey was is the first female fight in UFC
Wow everyone was all for her when she never lost and now u all leave her. one loss and people are putting her down but people made money on her. Well I'm for rhonda good luck my money is on her
sorry to break the ilusion skip but the #1 superstar in sports worldwide isnt lebron its either messi or ronaldo
Yeah she was big but Lebron or Mayweather? Hahahahahahahaha, thats really funny.
She always was soft
McGregor lost before Nate Joy. *sigh* Women.
It's a mistake having these guys talk about MMA. They don't understand the sport clearly.
Who really does? Weren't expert MMA analyst predict Ronda was going to annihilate Holly Holm???
Kobe Bryant has the most world wide international popularity. This is a joke. I'm so glad they keep trying to forget about Kobe. When the CAVS lose they will be back on the Steph train.
Keep ducking Cyborg Rousey shell get punched in the face this time instead of kicked.
That discussion always perplexed me.. Why does a heavier fighter call out a fighter from a lower weight class to come up in weight to fight. It's like Bisping calling out Woodley to fight at middleweight.. it makes no sense, the heavier fighter has every advantage.
nunes in 2
ZENO K9 Rousey wins by decision
I like her, but picking on mayweather was a turn off for me. I wish her success. and Mike Tyson please stop it with the over prasing. and for Michael strayhorn to pretend to be flipped over by rhonda rousey. she started believing her own hype. but the best to her...
Gina carano was the first not ronda shannon
Who da fook is Ronda
