Honda- took 20 power shots to the head. Landed 0.

[11_others]

I counted exactly 20 clean power punches to the head Honda took. That averages to about 1 punch every 2 seconds of the 48 second fight. I don't believe she landed a single strike.

This is probably the single worst beatdown in a championship history.

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Yeah, it was embarrassing. She clearly learned nothing about the need to work on her striking defense from the loss to Holm.

 

[JokersKnife]

I think she landed one jab.

 

[KB Warrior]

Beautiful Champ!

 

[opie]

seems reasonable

 

[TheAmericanGazelle]

I remember the Mortal Kombat movies using the phrase "flawless victory" like 3 or 4 times, despite the winning fighter taking very obvious damage.

I haven't rewatched, but was this literally a flawless victory?

Maybe Ronda landed something soft/off-balance in one of those brief clinches?

 

[FastTracker]

this was on AS- Leben level, totally outclassed

 

[whaleshark]

Nice and flowy Artem

Edmond does not work like that

 

[No Mas McGee]

took more shots to the face than jenna jamison

 

[Chomsky Honk]

humiliating hahahaha

 

[Gervinho]

She did the opposite of what her coach told her, like she was upset with him or something

Ronda just ruined her reputation forever and I love it

Thought of that fight afterwards.
I cheered hard for Ronda, but she didn't perform well... or even competently. I'm actually not even sure of what she was trying to do.
Whatever, I'm a Ronda fan for life anyway, hope she's ok. And retires

 

[The Best JG]

Ya i guess aldo did hurt conors face in the exchange

 

[Dingaling]

Head movement.... no please...no!

 

[LiLoMMA]

Not at all. Her reputation will forever be bringing the girls to the UFC and making it a thing. She could've ruined it against Carmouche, but she didn't, and now WMMA is a thing. And I'll be the first to admit that Rousey isn't a thing anymore, but her reputation is in stone.
This could've been an Invicta fight that only 30,000 nerds watched, instead of a major event.
War Rousey.
Hespect to Nunes.
I'm going to bed

Edit: vid. Please, correct if my count was off:

It is definitely in the running.

Off the top of my head, there are a few lopsided championship fights fights, although admittedly none were quite as lopsided in the same way:

Silva vs. Franklin I
McGregor vs. Aldo
Rousey vs. Correira
Rousey vs Davis
Rousey vs Zingano
