Poor Holly

[TheBigRedOne]

No rematch with Tate. Rousey gets whomever wins between Tate and Nunes (Tate easily).

Looks like the UFC just left Holly out to dry. I don't know who they could give her even if she were to be on UFC 199. Everyone in the top 10 is either fighting or coming off losses.

 

[J180]

She will be fine, the division is shallow as hell. All of them will run into each other.

 

[Credo]

Damn, i enjoyed Holly as the Champ.

 

[Sgt Smith]

I'm sure the UFC would like to keep her at as far of a distance from Honda as possible.

 

[Ceez]

Dana wasn't allowed to run her so she gets leftovers

 

[CatchnShoot]

Amanda Fucking Nunez?

Thanks for giving me another reason NOT to buy 200.

What a fucking clown show.

 

[LukeSkyRutten]

Nunes will KO Tate and then she will KO Ronda.

 

[dhole]

I don't understand why you think poor holly, they are gifting her the title.
Rhonda will beat tate to regain the title, then the ufc will promote the living shit out of a holmVrousey rematch for big $$$ and holly will win again. Ez money.

She pissed Dana it seems..

- beat Ronda the cow cash

- then management issues he doesn't like those managers that talk back to them, there used to bullying people

- didn't wait for Ronda when ever she decided to comeback December they said now ? (at that time we had no timeline didn't even know if she comes back or not)

But ding ding Tate with the long shot managed to snag away the win so now Ronda can come back and claim 'her' belt.

And you know what was the cherry on top ? they wanted to send her up to face Cyborg so they can push her back way down and protect Ronda even longer (we still don't know if Cyborg freaking fights in the 135 division.. if she does then Ronda will need to duck 2 fighters, double the effort).

Yea Holly much respect for you from the company..

And Nunes give me a break she will gas before 3'rd round ends not even mentioning the championship rounds.. it's Tate's fight to lose, heavy favorite.

Waste of a fight, waste of a slot in the epic historic card.. the fight to make was Tate vs Holly 2 not this bs.

O well, good side Holly will be able to improve in her problem areas bad side her age is not a good thing for this sport.

You've already seen the best fight you're ever going to get from Holly and Miesha. Any future rematch looks exactly the same: Holly dances around landing jabs at will, trying desperately to stuff takedowns... because if it goes to the ground Miesha takes her back with ease and chokes her out.

Holly will get her shot at Ronda once she has the belt back. In the meantime, why doesn't she fight someone in the Top 10? There are 8 (EIGHT!!) she's never fought before.

How is the pay over at Zuffa ?

Oh and Holly beats Tate 80% of the time maybe even 90% I'm sure she is a smart fighter and saw the problems in that last fight she will improve and will not fall for the same stuff again.. heck even the first fight she has 2 minutes away from a win in a 5 round long fight.

2 minutes away from a draw or Tate win you mean.

10-9, 8-10, 10-9, 10-9, 9-10 47-47 draw

10-9, 8-10, 10-9, 10-9, 8-10 47-48 Tate win

10-9, 8-10, 10-9, 10-9, 9-10 47-47 draw

10-9, 8-10, 10-9, 10-9, 8-10 47-48 Tate win

The 10-8 could be debatable for some but the judges put a clear 10-8 on it so let's go with the official and general accepted scoring.

But if Tate didn't get the takedown in the end that would have been a clear Holly round so 4 rounds to 1.

I'm good with waiting, eventually they will meet up and we will see.. I still think Holly would be the favorite, especially after all the shit that Dana and co are making her endure and she is a smart fighter from a smart camp they will work on those problems and will be a lot better prepared.

I've watched all of Holly's fights in the UFC and the only one she impressed me in was the Ronda fight. She's kinda like a female version of Dominic Cruz. A decision machine. I think Tate takes her out within 2 rounds.

Yea she is a point fighter for sure.. she controls the distance, great boxing, good kicks, great footwork, good takedown defense in general, good athlete (that upper body strength was impressive vs the superior skilled judoka fighter that is a big strong girl herself) and most likely she gets decisions not TKO's only the ones that go for her will get it real bad and most fans especially casuals will not like that add the fact she is a woman in the substandard female division and not that many fans will appreciate it.. heck Cruz has a lot of people that dislike him, same like all point fighters, safe, defensive fighters like Floyd was in boxing.

But for sherdog she is the one that took out Ronda and for that we would be forever grateful to her.

And if they meet again I got Holly like not even sweating about it.. and you disagree no problem with it, you are entitled to your opinion.

Why oh why do people say this? Holly holm, with one win, is one half of the biggest money making fight the UFC can make...with Ronda being the other half

You think Dana doesn't want to make money?? You're not the only person who says this so I don't mean to single you out but when you think about the money that will be made I really don't understand this thing people say.

Well, Rousey is the draw, not Holm. And if Holm beats her again, Where does that leave cash cow Rousey?

Now Rousey can fight for the title and avoid losing to Holm again.

Wha...what the?? So now the holm vs rousey rematch isn't a big money fight?? That's not a definite 1m buys? That doesn't do better business than Ronda vs any female fighter?

I appreciate you providing an answer. So thank you. I'm out as I can't go with that logic leap you're taking

Yes, Rousey v Holm two would be big money.

But when Holm wins again, the show is over. Holm without Rousey doesn't sell, and Ronda as just another fighter doesn't sell.

That's the idea, anyway. Not saying I believe it. I'm not big on believing things.

 

[Based God]

Why would Holly get an instant rematch?

She's had a grand total of 4 fights in the UFC and didn't even defend the title once. lol it ain't like she's been dominant for years in the UFC.

 

[Lyotosmustache]

Poor Ronda i reckon Holly Holm is going to rematch Ronda as her next fight
