Don't care if it's already been posted. Meisha has a good shot at beating Honda this time. Molly is hot.
Miesha will fight smarter this time. We've obviously seen her grow smarter as a fighter & she knows what she did wrong in the prior fights(which was going to the ground). She'll keep it on the feet at all costs & find success with her improved striking. Even before she improved, she was tagging Rousey & even rocked her.Somebody tell me how she'll beat Ronda? Miesha says Ronda got exposed but she's only exposed to fighters with good footwork and elite counter striking which Miesha definitely doesn't have, she shot 9 TDs against Holly, if she shoots one she'll be on her ass, they're both poor strikers.
People are saying Miesha will win because they hate Ronda, if you think of it objectively it's pretty clear, Miesha has had 2 attempts at Ronda and couldn't even steal a round.
No better way to boost your confidence than to fight somebody you've schooled twice, this myth that Miesha was lighting Ronda up is crazy, they both landed good shots on each other but Rousey won every round, Miesha can't function properly without takedowns. She doesn't know how to negate the hip toss either.Miesha will fight smarter this time.

Miesha is much better now & very confident while Rousey just got schooled & had her teeth literally loosened along with her confidence being shattered.
I didn't say she was lighting her up... I just said that she did tag her. She won every round because Miesha stupidly went for tds. Can't function without the td? She knocked Eye down with striking...& won other fights without wrestling. & she's had a lot of time between the last Ronda fight & surely she's trained on hip toss defense... Especially when she thought she was going to fight her instead of Holly.No better way to boost your confidence than to fight somebody you've schooled twice, this myth that Miesha was lighting Ronda up is crazy, they both landed good shots on each other but Rousey won every round, Miesha can't function properly without takedowns.

I remember when she was Miesha "Takedown" Tate...
She knocked Eye down but she couldn't capitalise & she was also getting lit up for the first 2 minutes, Miesha doesn't have the physical strength or big frame like Holly to easily negate the hip toss, she also got outstruck on the feet by Sara Mcmann.I didn't say she was lighting her up...

Either way, either of these women are merely keeping it warm for the inevitable Cyborg TKO when it happens.
That was only the first round, bud... It's not all about physical strength:She knocked Eye down but she couldn't capitalise & she was also getting lit up for the first 2 minutes, Miesha doesn't have the physical strength or big frame like Holly to easily negate the hip toss, she also got outstruck on the feet by Sara Mcmann.
Ronda is a terrible style match up for Miesha.
