Has any other UFC champion had more low quality opponents than Ronda?

[BonesNose**]

Propose better opponents for her or STFU.

And I dislike her a lot...

Cyborg.

Otherwise that'd be hard, considering how W"MMA" doesn't produce anything good.

 

[Moral Victory]

So she would actually get more cred if she was slightly worse, but still won?

Cyborg.

Sure. Cyborg can come to 135 and fight the champion instead of a cheater making a champion come to her.

Anderson's competition was similar

 

[bubkusjones]

At least he didn't do a Cro Cop and fight Alberto Del Rio.

To be fair, at the time Del Rio was actually an MMA fighter, training under Marco Ruas. Ended up with a 9-5 record (granted, mostly against guys not worthy of a wiki page).

Royce Gracie fought lower quality opponents. That's why he quit after Dan Severn learned what a triangle was. That's why he lost to Saku. That's why he lost to Matt Hughes.

Hate to break it to you, but Matt Hughes is basically Miesha Tate with maybe a little more punching power. Maybe. And he burned through Hoyce like nothing.


Yes, Ronda's opponents are low level. But that doesn't change that she is as good as she is.

 

[dmwalking]

And come to think of it, Cyborg hasn't exactly been facing top competition either. She's beating girls that can't even make it to the UFC. Add to the fact that she juices up to perform and you see what it really is.

I guess, but I don't class you as an MMA fighter if you fight with a luchadore mask on lol.

 

[Bmartin89]

No.

 

[Fight To Win]

How dare you question the quality of her opponents ya goof?! These women are the best fighters of all time. Before there was time it was determined that these women were the best fighters of all of it. You're not a real fight fan if you don't believe Rousey can armbar Fedor, KO Cain Velasquez with a spinning wheel kick and flying knee KO Jon Jones within a minute and a half. Understand?

 

[uppercutbus]

love this thread.

 

[Rob_M.]

Yup...Lidell, Aldo, Weidman, Jones, GSP....

 

[Juventud]

Diggem i just bumped one of your shitty threads saying Bethe was a better striker before the fight.

Showing your long running hate of Ronda. Just like this thread.

Not at all. Anderson overall had a few weaker guys thrown in there but not as weak as ronda's opponents.

Not her fault though she's doing what she should be. All the other girls need to catch up

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

In the history of the UFC or MMA for that matter has there been a champion which has faced more less skilled opponents than Rousey? There are none.

Even Royce had better opponents to fight.

Anything to discredit someone who accomplishes what you can't.

 

[bubkusjones]

I guess, but I don't class you as an MMA fighter if you fight with a luchadore mask on lol.

What if you just walk in wearing one, a la Sakuraba?

 

[ermac88]

Royce isn't really fair. Royce fought guys 70 pounds heavier then him. Ronda doesn't want to fight someone 10 pounds heavier. Not saying she's not right but come on.

Don't know if you've watched the ufc in the last 15 years.
They have weight classes now, its a big part of the sport

 

[Pakuded]

Nope

Ronda is a big gorilla in a tiny baby tiger cage.
Nothing impressive about a gorilla tearing apart a tiny tiger in 34secs or is there any great about said gorilla doing it 5 times in a row.

Still baby tiger cubs

How in the world did Anderson's name get thrown into this?

Dan Henderson
Vitor
Rich Franklin
Yushin Okami
Chael Sonnen
and throw in LHW Forrest, all of those guys were elite, proven fighters.

Comparing McMann, Tate, and Correria to Rich, Hendo and Vitor is a fucking joke.

Yeah I don't get it either, finishing Hendo and Vitor alone is 100x more impressive than anything Ronda has ever done in MMA.
