Ronda Rousey should come back and pull a GSP

If she does, for the love of God, use that judo and stop pretending like she's got great standup
Yes, Ronda was tricked into believing she was a good striker (I blame Edmond, Rogan, and Ronda herself for that nonsense). But her problem wasn't that she fell in love with striking. It was her takedowns. All of her takedowns came from the clinch. But if you avoided the clinch with her, she had no clue how to get it to the ground. In other words, she had great judo but zero wrestling. And high-end fighters can generally avoid judo throws. Also, she didn't have good enough striking to consistently close the distance and initiate the clinch.
 
GSP also never stopped training, even though he was out 4 years. Rousey's been training in FAKE fighting. Pena would kill her. That said, I love the idea. Pena's been in the trenches for a long time. She deserves the PPV money.

Pena is primarily a grappler though. Has no power to speak of. I feel like Ronda would just walk forward and get into the clinch and trip her. Fucking GDR was able to sub Pena and Ronda cant?
 
She is making bank in the WWE and her fighting spirit seemed to crack as soon as she lost for the 1st time.

For Rhonda's sake I hope she stays out of a cage.
