If Rousey theoretically came back today...

[Rank Squatter]

Only way she could be relevant today is if she kept training with Edmond Tarverdyan

he would have kept sharpening her iron

 

[Bouboumaster]

Bullet is still around and could possible be the second WMMA Who held two belts, once she avenge her loss

 

[The Bloody Nine]

competitive drive?

That was beaten out of her.

 

[RockyLockridge]

Ronda could be champ again easily, she’d need to take it seriously for just one year and move to a completely different camp

 

[RockyLockridge]

Holly is at least temporarily out of the picture because of losing her last fight. GDR isn’t back in the picture yet.

So who is so great at BW right now that Ronda could NOT beat them? Simple question. Let’s see some actual answers with reasoning behind them.

Pena, because Peña has that dog in her and doesn’t quit easily. Mentally she won’t break and she will eat any strikes Ronda throws her way, if pena can just manhandle and drag her to the ground should be early night for Ronda

Otherwise I’m with you

 

[MarleyLynx]

Rousey doesn't get the respect she deserves. She was hittable with bad movement but had good takedowns and a good groundgame. She could still make waves if she's been training but a good striker with movement and TDD will likely still piece her up.

 

[Tweak896]

She probably could get the title if they leave it vacant, then the UFC does Pena vs Rousey for the title for her last fight. The game has passed Ronda, but the division is also so bad. Ronda couldn't half ass her return though. Even if she half asses it I guess they could throw her in at FW for the vacant title and give her an easy matchup.

 

[Harlekin]

Hasn't trained for 7 years, no standup back then, past prime at 36
No Confidence anymore, no aura anymore, needs a new trainer
people stfu

 

[StoneWT]

Y'all seriously want R. Honda beaten into actual mental retardation to match her emotional retardation and ADHD/autism/learning disability/etc. that already makes her seem dumb. Dana knows that she rides the short bus after seeing her striking in the Nunes fight with a year off to improve and holding her crying for some ridiculous time like 30 minutes (whatever it was). Even he isn't sadistic enough to try and make money off a wreck like her.

 

[Neck&Neck]

Dana would be pumped up

she would lose, WMMA has gotten much better, her skills have not

I don't think Pena can hang with Ronda in a grappling match. She won't break but she'll definitely tap.

 

[Dorkman]

She wouldn't be the same fighter. She's spent a lot of time away. And I doubt she's still training the sport like GSP did in his hiatus. She's 36 and been out of the game for 7 years. For her sake just not a road worth taking given she's still earning great money without fighting.

Even with age I still think she could judo throw half the WMMA roster into an armbar if she can do it without getting rocked. Don't you know she does pro wrasslin' bro?
