The real winner at UFC 196 was...

[imagesmb]

Ronda Rousey. I was telling everyone that would listen before the fight started that styles make fights and this is going to turn into a weird love triangle between Holm, Tate, and Rousey. I think Holm beats Rousey every time while Rousey beats Meisha every time. I guess the question now is whether or not Meisha can beat Holly again.

Some of us knew Ronda would try and slime her way back in.

The problem is if Tate doesn't beat Ronda this time around, it's going to be extremely hard for her to push for a Ronda vs Tate 4.

Holm can beat Miesha, she needs to use the cage to her advantage more often everytime Miesha would try and go Eddie Alvarez on her Holly would immediately spin Mieshas back to the cage. She needs to fight with some urgency.

I mean I know Dana probably didnt say it correctly but if he did......

He called Ronda, told her what happened because she didn't watch it. He told her Meisha won.
And Rondas response was time to get back to work.

So you weren't working before because Holly was champ...wth? What the hell kind of championship attitude is that.
I hope she loses to anyone is she comes back then she goes back to oblivion.

Rhondas not coming back. Deal with it

You really think she won't come back to take Tate's arm again?

 

[MuddyFugger]

If Ronda would just learn a double leg, she could take Holly too

 

[grzelkaj]

So she can get mauled by HH? Nah. Besides her first dight back should be Holm. Thats all we heard immediate rematch this, immediate rematch that. Since ufc is big on immediate rematches, lets do that.

She will get mauled by Holm again but it won't be her first fight back. The big money fight now is Ronda vs. Tate 3... This time with Meisha as champ.

 

[Ube]

three way. first three way fight. in jello.

I wouldnt be surprised if Tate beats Rousey. Ronda lost BAD to Holly. We all know fighters after a loss like that come back different. Not to mention Tate DID improve. I called her beating Holm because she was more well rounded in the MMA game. Everyone assumes Miesha would lose to rousey every time? ...how many thought Holly would be destroyed by Ronda.....Didnt happen.....How many thought Tate would have nothing for Holm. She found a way to win. On the ground. Rousey will has already had how long of a lay off? I say she loses her first fight back against whoever it is.

 

[minute bull]

Ronda can beat Holly. She needs to. Hell UFC should make her fight twice before another title shot. If one of those is Cyborg, even better.

Fucking lol'd.

1.Ronda gets the Tate fight but Dana insists no later than November.
2. Ronda wins a hard fought 4 round fight.
3. Holm beats Nunes and Zingano in decisions.
4. Ronda figures out a way to duck a Holm rematch.

She's otw back now.

It's the Jackson-Winklejohn gameplan. Ride it out to a decision, when should could have gone full bore on MT.

1.Ronda gets the Tate fight but Dana insists no later than November.
2. Ronda wins a hard fought 4 round fight.
3. Holm beats Nunes and Zingano in decisions.
4. Ronda figures out a way to duck a Holm rematch.

4. Says it's time to retire (have babies, do movies, etc.)

 

[VIPERdude]

Unless its a mid card fighter Ronda loses the first fight back to anyone in top 4 or 5. Ring Rust is real. Knock out defeat is a confidence killer also (especially a KO like that). Lots and LOTS of pressure on Rousey to win otherwise she knows if she loses her fight back she may call it quits, not to mention she wants to win for the fans. Its a do or die in her mind. If she fights Holm again she will be timid in being hit again. If she fights Tate she may get too comfortable due to the fact she did beat Tate 2 times and make a mistake at some point.

 

[cumafish]

she still has to wake up next to Travis...
