I'm actually kinda pumped for the main and co-main
I just hope this fight goes longer than her last one. I paid 50 bucks for about 20 seconds of action haha
I think you might be in for a treat.
Kat's 9-0 with 8 of them being KO, TKO, or Sub. Only once has she gone the distance and that was back in 2010. Granted most of the early ones are against girls who's names I don't recognize. But her last 3 fights are no joke. Pennington, Tate, Nunes with wins by choke, TKO, and TKO.
When Rousey last beat Tate it went 58 seconds into the 3rd round. When Kat last beat Tate is was 2:55 in the 3rd round.
There is no doubt that Tate was Ronda's hardest fight. Cupcake has won 3 fights since, demonstrating that she's still a top contender.
In fact if you look at Tate's record over the last 5 years she has only 3 losses... two to Ronda and 1 to Kat.
I've been going back and watching Kat's old fights and I think she is Ronda's most difficult challenge yet. She's really nasty and skilled in all departments, with killer heart. And this is her big moment. A chance to unseat the greatest female fighter the world has ever seen.
I recommend going back and watching Kat v Miesha, then watch Miesha v Ronda #2.
I'm stoaked for this fight.
Cat is very scary. And she's hot. Sick grappling at the 27 minute mark
Rousey v Holm?
Ronda by armbar in the 1st. If Holm had some lifetime wrestling and could keep it standing, I might feel differently. I'm half convinced it would look like the Randy Couture v James Toney fight. I doubt we're going to see it though, as I bet that Holm would never make it past girls like Cupcake to get a title shot in the first place.
When I imagine this matchup, I see Ronda standing with her for 20 seconds, or however long it takes her to get into a clinch. Then Holly goes flying over Ronda's hip. Ronda spins up into spiderweb, and done.
I hope I'm wrong, because that kind of striking would be really fun to watch Ronda try to deal with. But until Holm shows me some serious wrestling and the ability to stay alive when she's on her back, I'm highly skeptical.
Can't wait for this fight!
Tomorrow night bitches!
I'm really excited for this card now that I know there are 2 x 10p guys on there! I was already stoaked to see Ronda, plus Holly is probably going to put on a striking clinic.
But we might get to see some more UFC Rubber Guard! Someday someone's going to win a title fight where they smash someone's face from crackhead or similar... That'll be the day the UFC mainstream goes "WTF is THAT shit?" maybe tomorrow gets us one step closer!
