“There’s a lot of guys her size she could beat,” said Rogan. “I mean, a lot. If you took the roster of the UFC’s bantamweights, 135 pounds, and you paired them up against Ronda Rousey, she might be able to beat 50 percent of them. That’s not a joke.”
"If she could take the kind of punches that some of these guys might possibly land, it might get up to like 60 percent. She’s a truly special talent,” he said.
LOL
What an idiot
Maybe his worst take of all time.
In another timeline, I wonder what would have happened if Prime Rousey ditched Edmond and went with someone like Trevor Wittman?
Or when he teared up like she was some sort of Amazonian God … twice
She couldn’t beat a single dude in the UFC, not even Mike Jackson. Neither could Nunes who is like 10 tiers above her
I know she would have had most likely beat Holly if she stuck with Hayastan MMA.
Edmund stole Ronda and turned her into a garbage boxer
She wouldn’t beat 1% of the UFC flyweights let alone 50% of the bantamweights.
rogan is a hype man
that is why every guy fighting on every card
is a world class wrestler
world class boxer
world class grappler
world class judo
world class kickoxer
he trains with world class coaches
and then he you see the guy
Not quite up there with Dana’s claim the UFC would overtake soccer. But yeah, one of the dumber takes I’ve heard in MMA.
worse even than the Machida Era
Think the important point is “if she could take a punch”. Knowing what we know now, she can’t take a punch from fighters in the women’s division much less a man
The sad part is Rhonda believed it.
she could take a punch well enough to stay standing up, allowing her opponent to tee off with their hardest three-punch combination to the head
Rogan says so much strange shit.
Ronda doesn’t get enough respect, imo. I’m going to get a lot of shit for this. But she was legit. She had some of the best Judo ever in the UFC.
