From what little we have seen of her hands, they have not looked at good. The question is how good is the hands of her opponents? As a whole WMMA does not have that many good strikers and those that are good are generally at a such a deficit in the grappling department that they pose little to no challenge right now. I want to see her stand with Cyborg for a few exchanges before I can say that her hands are good.

That ground and pound is so funny to watch. Pathetic.

Neither of those fighters is a one trick pony. It's simply a matter of knowing what they will try to do in the fight and taking advantage of that knowledge. Carmouche knows rousey will go for armbars so she should have trained escaping them and landing gnp

I would love to roll with her for a while and see how good her overall ground game is. She seems to move well all over, but you never know until you see her train with someone you know or know to be tough. I don't see any non-cyborg girls beating her anytime soon though. Would love to see her and Gina fight, but then again I bet everyone would.

Not really, she's punching like that to get Tate to cover up and give up an arm. She's not trying to finish the fight with those punches.

I stumbled upon a youtube video few days ago dubbed Best Women KOs or some shit and almost every single one was a tko or the girls straight up quitting after taking a hard shot.

Say no to women's mma

Exactly. One would have to have sub par intelligence to assume she was trying to GnP Tate out. She simply wanted an arm. ..She got it, too.

Much too small. Haunty Housey would beat that ass one way or another. Kyra would probably be giving up 20lbs or more. Mostly muscle at that. Ronda is an athletic woman.

..Just Bleed guy spotted.

Most men's "KOs" are really TKOs, too, stupid.
