she's not a former UFC champion, she had the strikeforce belt without defending it once.
Being a former Strikeforce champion is as relevant as anything in WMMA. So shut up.
she's not a former UFC champion, she had the strikeforce belt without defending it once.
It was used to emphasise the very small chance she has as I've said many times before, there's no way to measure a fighters chance of winning by % without a flawless mathematical formula, so you're one of the sherbros who calls anybody who rustles your jimmies a "14 year old", you really are an imbecile.
She has as much chance as chael did in fight #1. She could do better on the feet than most expect with threats of actual takedowns(even to the point of arguably outstriking the best striker in the division) My best guess is 25%
I've been saying this for a while.
Miesha is a high school wrestler, that's it. Her stand up is poor both offensively and defensively, her wrestling isn't really that great, she has some of the worst fight IQ in the sport, she doesn't appear to have a great submission game, .
Actually she does. She won the Strikeforce title by submitting the GOAT female MMA grappler, and submitted Julie Kedzie at the end after losing the entire fight and in a completely beat up state.
But not only that, she constantly threatens with submissions and uses submission attempts to win rounds and judges decisions even when she doesn't finish the submission. In her non-Rousey UFC & Strikeforce fights, she averages 2-3 submission attempts per fight. In the UFC, she won judges decisions over Carmouche, McMann, & Eye largely due to dominating rounds with submission attempts. And she uses a variety of submissions, not just one specialty. RNC's, guillotines, armbars, head and arm chokes and triangles. You have to be prepared to defend them all. Why does this even matter? Because Holly Holm hasn't had to defend a single submission attempt in her entire MMA career and we have no idea how good she is at it.
sucks TS got banned I also wanted to mock him lolBook Marked this one!!!
I told you so!!
0 chance huh??
FAIL!!!
This is exactly what happenedOk so, she's going to RNC the strongest opponent she's ever fought when she couldn't finish Carmouche, McMann, Nakai or Jessica Eye? If they were men I'd agree with the father time idea, but Holly is light years infront of Tate in terms of athleticism & strength, she makes Tate look like a soccer-mom.
