She should have been #2 behind Conor McGregor but I don't mind her winning.

Nope

Rouseys has been on the judo may since she was a kid. Ronda's mom was a world judo champion and has a ph.d in psychology. She's also trained with greats such as gene lebell, gokor, jimmy pedro.

No one in the women's division in her weight class comes close to having that kind of pedigree in any one discipline except for holly holm. Gotta find way to beat rr only by standup imo

That's just as insane as saying rr could beat Serena on the tennis court who like Ronda was conditioned to excel in the sport at an early age due to her father.

Now if we put them both in an athletic event that neither are familiar with I'd give the edge to Serena just cause I think she has more fast twitch muscle fibers

Let's say Serena Williams is given 6 months to train and prepare. What are the chances that she could beat Rousey?

I voted for Rousey but only because I had never heard of any of the nominees apart from Mayweather. Who I don't like.

I agree on Monee Davis being a ridiculous honoree.

Women's MMA is terrible. That man chick Cyborg needs to fight Rousey. Also what does it say that Rousey and Dana White are hyping this Floyd Mayweather shite before a UFC fight, it's because no one gives a shite about Women's MMA.

That's exactly the reason why I am correct.

She's spent less than 30 minutes against overmatched tomboys.

Wouldn't call that impressive.

To just make it to the NCAA tournament in wrestling requires...you know...actual fighting.

Go to youtube and watch NCAA men's wrestling championships. Just the 126 pounders.

It's obvious they are much stronger and faster than she is.

No. It means fighter of the year should be someone who actually fights in a combat sport with real competition.

There is no depth in women's MMA.

Rousey has never fought anyone even close to having the speed, power, athleticism, and skill that Mayweather has.

She'd never touch him.

Espn quit being Espn once Disney/ABC bought them.

What was once a channel dedicated to showing sports without an agenda became a "political" tool for the parent company.

It didn't happen overnight but it started with "College Gameday" overhyping all the games on ABC. Even to the point of talking up teams for "rankings" to give ABC better ratings.

Espn has become another member of the liberal mainstream media and that is why I don't watch it except for live sporting events.

MMA diehards may be the most retarded people on the planet. I love to watch MMA, but the tapout idiots in here that think she is beating Mayweather is an absolute joke

Of all the meaningless awards to get upset about, this one is the most retarded to get rustled over. She won her her last title defense in 14 seconds.
