Let just enjoy what she is doing. She is the best at her craft.


She is a technically gifted MMA fighter.

Who is arguing that? I enjoy watching her snap arms 30 seconds into every fight.

The argument that she has transcended that female weight class into "beating" world class professional male boxers is laughable.

My point is,Ronda wouldn't box with floyd. She would throw him and sink an arm bar and be done with him.


What if Floyd hit her first?

What's laughable is you thinking boxing translates into MMA. Floyd would lose to most fighters from the prelims tonight in an MMA fight. He would be lost in an MMA fight period. So a fighter of Rousey's caliber would be able to beat him in an MMA match easily.

Then a judge gives him a point before he gets submitted.

The fact that you dont acknowledge the striking ability of a world champion boxer in a fight with a female MMA fighter seems weird.

I have dabbled in my time in the army and I think you are FOS.

This shite is absolutely ridiculous, Floyd would KO this broad in 3 punches max. Just goes to show meathead UFC fans are ok with a woman being the face of the sport.

Thats fair. I watched since the inception with no weight classes and tourney style. Royce was ahead of the curve with the bjj when the merging of fighting styles just began.

Female fighting is in its infancy because hell, some countries still dont even allow women to vote. And less than 100 years in this 'developed' country.

Will take awhile for the womens side to evolve though hardly anyones doubting Rousey is a bad arse. But Mayweather would still donkey punch her to death.

I wonder why Floyd is always the comparison. Does anyone actually think a woman would beat GGG?

The vast majority of the time a striker goes up against a grappler in MMA the grappler wins. And in those instances those strikers have been training in other areas for years. So a boxer with even less training in grappling stands even lesser of a chance. And in MMA he's not a true striker, he has no kicks.

Maybe you should do a little more dabbling.

I thought we were talking about making money for the family. Not child rearing and domestic problems.

Probably because the weight is the closest and all the rhetoric in the media.

Its really a stupid argument at the end of the day.

She has done great things to promote her sport among her gender. I think its very noble

Rousey would be the likely breadwinner in that one unless she starts banging a celeb. She makes more cash than nearly any other fellow MMA fighter.

Yeah that's great, but it's the UFC meatheads who actually think she could take down a male boxing Champion.
