As a judoka myself I can say Ronda is a hell of a fighter. A pure pleasure to see such skill on display. And I hope I never meet her across a mat. I am a big fan.

I believe Rousey will win, and win easily.

Rousey is extra mad at her for her comments about suicide. I think she's gonna get it good!

Rousey always finds a way to be "extra mad". She is the bad girl they are trying to sell and doing it quite well.
Beyond that she is an amazing Judo practitioner. If she retires young enough, it will be undefeated. It is a SERIOUS discrepancy in talent there between her and anyone close. Beyond luck she is going to be champ for a while.

The Vegas over / under is a round and a half. I feel pretty comfortable with the under and predict that Correia leaves with a broken arm.

The only flaw in the plan for Rousey is wanting to punch her.

She seems angry because of things Correia said about her father. I don't know but it sounded like she wants to let the fight go and punch with her.
Not sure anger is the best way to contemplate strategy for a fight. This Correia is no joke.

She may try to stand up but if she gets in trouble she's just going to bulldog Correia, take her down, and do whatever she wants on the ground. Those highlights of Correia winging punches at some girl standing up against the cage, that's not gonna happen in this fight. Rhonda will just drag her or throw her to the ground. I think the punching Rhonda is talking about is from the mount. I think she plans to take her down and instead going for a submission right away, do some ground and pound. If she doesn't break Correia when she throws her to the ground that is. |

That does seem to be the smart play.

I think Rousey is just so strong and her technique as far as judo and grappling are so pristine that if she feels one punch that bothers her she's just going to go back to what she does best. It wouldn't be wise to toy with Correia, but if Rhonda just stays focused and in control I think she will destroy her. Either by submission or TKO, and probably in the first round. Maybe the second.

I have to say her hands have gotten much better. She really is an amazing athlete.

Then again, Rhonda might get knocked the **** out. lol But I wouldn't bank on it.

I agree that there is a big discrepancy in skill when comparing her to the rest of the competition. It's like Royce Gracie in the first couple of UFC's.

Well that didn't take long. Like Lunatik said. The woman's game especially in this division is still kind of a phony game. It's not a real competition, Rousey is just light years ahead of the competition right now. It'll be a couple years before there's true parity in the division because she started so young, she was a fighter long before there was women's MMA with her competition background.

Oh yeah...just put me in the ring and let Rousey wrap those legs around me and...never mind.
If I were to agree with you. Then we would both be wrong. As of Apr 5, 2015 10:26 pm I have 880 posts. Used to have over 1,000
