mmavixen - Not only is she beautiful, I think she always comes off classy.
There's nothing classy in her last interview.

lol at a rematch.. for what? The same damn thing would happen.
Taint sounds bitter and soudns like her lap dog Caraway has been telling her she was winning.
We all saw what happened when the trash talking was over.. and Rousey and Taint actually fought
Pot calling the kettle black.

You might be right but until i see any other female fighter laying down any kind of dominant performance i am afraid the rematch will be ''forced'' upon us.
The only fights that still make sense for Rousey currently are Cyborg and perhaps Coenen (Davis was decent but i really do not see her as a serious threat to Rousey on the feet or the ground). Both these fights are less interesting from a commercial viewpoint.
I do think the Rousey Kaufman fight will be an interesting watch but i personally don't see Kaufman defending the takedown.And the chances of her KO Rousey are slim.
Anyways even though she is annoying at times you cannot deny her potential. And i actually taught that with these comments she actually had some constructive criticism.
Are we truly entering the realms of Rousey mania???
well done Steph, great piece!
Condit is that you?
Ronda Rousey: respectful to her opponents and in no way completely obnoxious, business as usual.
Tate does come off like a bitter delusional space case... She didn't prove anything? Right.
imsupersteven - I think rhonda is amazaing, but I would agree that I think miesha was winning the round. She landed more punches and had her back.
I double checked to confirm what I thought I saw.

Miesha held no advantage on the feet. And didn't appear to threaten from the back...
The girl has heart, but not getting armbared in under a minute doesn't mean you win the round.
I was talking to Cecil People's about the fight.
He told me he had it 10-8 for Tate before she got subbed.
Rousey Correct, as usual.
I do not understand how people sometimes think about these fights. If Rousey was a women's Olympic wrestling medal winner nobody would ever have considered this a decent match-up in any way. Every nitwit in the US MMA world would have said that an Olympic Champion in wrestling is better than some gal who wrestled in HS with a few boys...
But, bring in an Olympic & World Judo Champion and people around here are somehow stupid enough to think that wrestling in HS with a few boys is on par....???? Wow. The level of stupid is amazing. Judo has been a major international sport for women for over 30 years-- wrestling has been worldwide for women for less than a dozen.
Hell, my old roommate at SJSU was one of the top-3 female wrestlers in the world during the late 90's and she had to struggle to qualify for the Olympics in Judo, which she had been doing since she was 6. Wrestling has caught up somewhat, but overall women's wrestling is still a bit behind Judo. Though, I am interested to see what happens when the better female wrestlers climb into the MMA realm.
Rousey is 100% correct...
With that said, the girl could shut her trap for once.
Let me tell how popular Judo is here in America!

Tate took a considerable beating, and said lets do it again bitch.
mijo - Tate took a considerable beating, and said lets do it again bitch.
perhaps someday someone will explain ownage to you.

Well when guys like Rogan and Bravo seem confused and keep asking Ronda where she learned her submission skills even after she said Judo, you know there is not much hope, I mean just look at what her mother was doing in the 80's..
...I thought this was settled here like 12 years ago when Bolo got a copy of Okano's Vital Judo groundwork book. I'm not even bringing up all the Judo Masterclass books that have been around forever that cover this stuff.
TTT
Great work, Crook.
Yeah I like Ringo Lam's Stuff.
I was very lucky to have a mate who is as in to HK films as I am horror, so I got a chance to see a lot of great stuff that was never released here...Naturally I became an Anthony Wong/Cat III film fiend :-)
