Ronda Rousey v Cris Cyborg - Size Comparison

[fightfan84]

So Cyborg vs Ronda is bad business? Okay.

Also, there's "your" and "you are." Learn the difference.

Yes. Short term gain is not worth long term risk. Same reason they made Brock drop to 265 as well. Are you new to mma man?

dont talk and act like your the best female fighter on the planet then, cus cyborg is without question, i dont give a fuk about cyborgs resume, if she fights ronda she wins.

Ronda is the female goat. This is not even up for debate. Cris is a proven drug cheat with a resume that is far inferior to Ronda's. Cyborg can cut weight or shut the fuck up. Cyborg has spent three years trolling RR and has not attempted a cut below 144.6 pounds. It is clear how much she wants to fight Ronda (not at all).

Ronda does not need to fight a drug cheat to cement her legacy as the best fighter ever in WMMA. Or to make money. Cyborg does on both counts. No again, drop the muscle mass or shut up already.

Hilarious to use height as your argument.

Rousey and Tate are both listed as 5' 6" which is the same or less than several 115 lb girls (Moroz, Letourneau, Calderwood). Are you going to argue that both of them could fight at 115 pounds? Marloes Coenen is 5' 9" tall and managed to weigh in at 135 lbs on her title fight against Miesha Tate. Cowbody Cerrone is a LW men's fighter who is 6' 1" tall. Maybe he should move up to MW or LHW based on his height.
Sorry, but using height means you are desperate because it doesn't work on any weight / size argument.

Rousey and Tate are listed at 5'7", kid.

Lots of people thought GSP was the best, did he have to fight Bellator's LHW champ to prove it?

Again, Ronda has tried to fight Cris and Cris has ran. I don't blame the UFC for being strict with Cris; Cris's games are wearing her welcome thin.

Did Bellator's LHW champ call GSP out? I must have missed that.

 

[Darwinambrosius]

Yes. Short term gain is not worth long term risk. Same reason they made Brock drop to 265 as well. Are you new to mma man?

Edit: microphone was on while trying to type.

The UFC had a viable HW division and Brock isn't above 265 anyway.

 

[SlicerDM]

You wish buddy, Cyborg is overrated and would get exposed by Zingano or even Tate
She wouldn't even reach Ronda if she fought in UFC

Lol@ Skold.


Delusional Rousey white knight.

 

[Toxxus]

Lol just because you're a slightly higher quality poster than that other fool I will let this one slide brah.

One KO over a flailing arms chin in the air Correia does not make one a KO artist. Dont let the countdown shows and UFC hyperbole get to your head homie, youre smarter than that.

Just dont let it happen again or your credibility is going straight in the trash alongside with his.

You realize Rousey has KO'd 3 of her last 4 fights....right??

I like how you go straight for insults, offer zero arguments to back up your point and then declare lopsided victory.

 

[I WILL CUT YOU]

If he did GSP would laugh at him.


Like we are all laughing at Cris.







And you, neophyte.

Lots of hyperbole here. The Akano fight was 6 years ago, Cris weighing in at 151 and tried to cheat the scales. Akano made it to the third round, bro.

Also, Cris averages 1.5 fights a year and spent time suspended. So saying "10 years ago" is a bit misleading. You asked for opponents who fought at 125 recent to their fight with Cris, I supplied those names.

I also stated to list ones that aren't while someone is barely not a teenager.
You still have failed to prove that Cyborg isn't legit if you can't find a fight in this decade to prove your point.

Are you going to say Cyborgs destruction of Gina Carano wasn't legit? Cheating with steroids or not, she still got a Round 1 TKO over a powerful striker. And with Gina's problems on the scale you aren't going to be able to claim she is a 135 pounder much less below. And as previously stated, Marloes Coenen stands as the one legit 145 pounder who was a previous belt holder. She lasted to the 3rd round on one fight and the 4th round on the other fight before getting TKO'd. She was not good enough.

I am not a Cyborg fan and dislike her strongly for the cheating, but there is no denying that she is a tough fight. She may not get KO's like a JDS, but she certainly overwhelms like Cain.

EDIT* Cyborg has multiple Knock Downs in a lot of her fights.

Sorry, but you are grasping for straws here.. I didn't just provide her height, i showed you a picture of what she looks like during weigh ins, she is tiny and is carrying WAY too much weight for her frame. Neither Miesha or Ronda look like they bloated up during the weigh ins. The fact that you would use such a cheap tactics pretty much proves you have no argument

So he didn't. What was your point?

 

[fightfan84]

The U.S. has laws in place preventing a fight above 265, but you already knew that I'm sure.

Doesn't change the point they will not invest money into cyborg for one fight then send her back to another org. Makes zero sense. In order for this fight to happen above 135 they would need to make a 145 divison so cyborg can stay in the ufc.

Akano fought at 128 and 132 right after fighting Cris. She was hardly a teenager. You don't deal with facts well, bro.


Name 5 credible opponents Cris has fought. I'll wait.

Lol@ Skold.


Delusional Rousey white knight.

Pretty sure you got your ass handed to you in another thread, when you consistently avoided a simple question.. but now you are back for more eh?

If "white knight" the best counter argument you can come up with, then save yourself the embarrassment and leave.

That's a poor rebuttal, but you're likely trolling anyhow. Whatever you say.

 

[Marc A]

What backpedaling? Ronda agreed to a fight at 145 and Cris pissed hot. Ronda agreed to a fight at 140 with strict testing, Cris asked to be released and went to Invicta. Do you honestly think Cris will agree to fight at 145lbs with strict USADA testing? I don't, and history says I'm probably right.

According to Ronda herself the fight isnt being made because of DANA ..


THATS RONDA ROUSEY saying that

I see you edited and you also used to say "The U.S. has laws in place preventing a fight above 265, but you already knew that I'm sure."

Well, no, there aren't laws against having fights over 265. SHW is a real weight class according to the athletic commissions and the unified rules, it is just that the UFC thinks the weight class would suck balls so they don't use it and don't promote it, much like any women's weight class above 135.

But yes, Brock was way over 265 and would have loved to be superheavyweight, but the UFC said no go, make 265.

 

[clayj]

Name the fighters that Cyborg has fought that are 125 lb and 115 lb fighters so we can verify their fight history. Name even one that fought in those weight classes (115 or 125) any time recent to their fight against Cyborg versus when they were barely not a teen ager.

I am certainly not here to brag about Cyborg, but the people she has fought have fought in her weight class and are not petite girls. I will agree with the majority that they are lower quality versus UFC fighters who fight more regularly and have higher spending levels to fund their training.

Cyborg's toughest fight has been against Marloes Coenen who is even taller than Cyborg. She has fought at 135 lbs before, but that is a tough weight cut for her. In fact yesterday she tweeted a desire for another match with Cyborg. She also lost to Tate in about the same amount of time as she lost to Cyborg (by different method and in 135 lb in lieu of 145 lb).

Hitomi Akano held the 128 belt in Jewels.
Schroeder
Paes is a small bw who may have a 125 fight

Paes has fought at 125 and at 135 where she lost to Bethe Correa .
