UFC fight with 2 olympic gold medalists from different backgrounds

[executionermma]

Did it ever happen? In PRIDE it did, with Yoshida (judo) vs. Rulon Gardner (greco-roman wrestling)

PS: Gardner won

Don't think so... Closest thing I can think of is Rousey - McMann.

Lombard like Fedor medalled at the Worlds but never had a podium finish at the Olympics.

Isn't she the wife of the guy who does the WWE?

 

[LiLoMMA]

Motherfucking Ronda Rousey eviscerated that manly wrestler chick who had a medal. Ah, those were the days.
Fuck Holly Holm

How do you do the WWE? Asking for a friend

I think Henry Cejudo, Kevin Jackson, and Mark Schultz were the only gold medalists in the UFC and they never faced each other, so no .

 

[Lil Smokie]

Kurt Angle is teaming up with Ronda Rousey at wrestlemania if that counts for anything.

the UFC fame certainly didn't affected her personality in a good way, she got more and more cocky and crazy with the hypetrain

I don't dislike Rousey for being cocky and crazy, it typically goes with being a champion. Granted, the fake hatred for Holm was evidence of mental instability, but....

I just hate the way Dana invented phony hype to build up Rousey, claiming she's beating up guys in movie theaters and on the street. Watching her Edmond-inspired striking quickly disproved that BS.
