    She'll be lucky to make it to the second.

    If she makes it through the first round it's because Ronda lets her, nothing else.

    On top of everything else, Ronda has a 4" reach advantage. Bethe's not even touching her.

    Not even a Kalib Starnes strategy would get her out of the first round.

    Not too bad of a bet IMO.

    EDIT: Over 1.5 rounds is stretching it though.

    Source? What I've seen is the two looking pretty much the same size.

    Bethe only makes it out of the first round if one or two situations happen:

    A.) Ronda decides she wants the fight too

    B.) Bethe somehow can prevent the fight from hitting the mat in the 1st.

    I agree. Beth will probably lose in rd 2.

    How do you pronounce Bethe's name anyway? Beth? Betcche? (as Rogan pronounced it a few times)...

    Not a bad bet, but imo Ronda rd2 is better. She may keep this standing up to try and put on a show for the fans. I was surprised that she is more popular and I think she wants to ride that. She'll feel Bethe out for the first minute or so, then realize her sloppiness and lack of power and then beat her up standing. Possibly a second rd finish, but letting it drag out to the 3rd would start to get embarrassing.

    Bethe could not prevent her face from hitting the mat.
