In one where she doesn't think she can stand with a person who throws punches at people's heads professionally and goes for a takedown instead.

No one said it's necessarily limited to those things.
The point is in fact that you could have an "open" fight and he would still beat the complete shit out of her.
But she would easily take Floyd down. You just don't understand real fighting.
/s
You do realize Floyd can probably easily over power her right? You do realize men are stronger than women?
lol where the F you from?

The point is the opposite. Floyd has one way to beat the complete shit out of her. Ronda has dozens of ways to beat Floyd. Floyd is extremely one dimensional. If he doesn't get a hit on her or does but it doesn't KO her, he's finished. He'd be on his ass and either KO'd (via ground and pound) or submitted.
A decent person would walk away.
Noone fights fair in the real world. As much as you may want to fight fair, you wont because you will be at such a severe disadvantage its just a giant race to the bottom.
Dude, no, just stop. It's getting embarrassing.
Are you 17?
You've never taken a BJJ class. Women can, and do, get the better of men all the time. It's designed for the smaller person to defend against bigger (and stronger) opponents. Floyd would get rag dolled, even by a woman. Why? Because he only knows how to box.
Fighting multiple people, yeah, go for killing blows. Never kick or stomp a downed person in a true 1v1 on the street. At least, not in the head. Shooting a fair one isn't a about death and brain damage. Shit ain't worth prison time. Only go that far when you have to neutralize multiple assailants.
That's different from a sanctioned professional match. You have to be prepared to use everything that's within the rules, because your opponent will. If you can't bring yourself to do it, go fight in a league where the stuff you don't like isn't allowed.

Dude, speak for yourself or your area. Not where I grew up in North West area of Toronto.
Yep, once I've self defended...I'm ghost like Swayze.
This thread is becoming hilarious.
Delusional boxing fans are embarrassing. They have no idea how limited boxing truly is.

A great MMA fighter could beat Floyd, sure. But not Rousey.
I've trained Muay Thai and BJJ, that's why it bugs me when boxing fans pipe up. I know how limited boxing is.
lol Toronto.
Not disputing that most fights arent fair. But wth does that have to do with this thread. Are we still talking about Ronda and Flloyd? how are people bringing up knives and getting swarmed.
Rousey alreasy lost to a boxer
Spoken like someone with no understanding of MMA.

So, I heard the microphones caught someone calling Nunes a "fucking monkey"
Is this true? If so that's absolutely disgusting.
Is this true? If so that's absolutely disgusting.
Holy Holm? The same Holy Holm with extensive wrestling training?
Ronda is a judoka, she's not even formally trained in BJJ or wrestling. She has to get in a clinch to be affective. Last night was a perfect example of why Judo is ass. She couldn't get through Nunes' punches to get her in a clinch.
She sure as hell wouldn't be able to get through Mayweather's punches either.
Lmao
I feel dumber for even participating in this conversation.

No idea, I mean, this is second hand, as in I heard someone say that they heard that at some point. So I'm wondering if anyone can confirm.

Wrestling training does not invalidate her as a boxer.

Again, second hand. Im asking if anyone else here heard it because, that's super fucked up if true.
Because THANK YOU EDMOND.
Because Ronda fans want to feel like they can still win at something.
Some rando fan might have yelled out something racist at a UFC event in Vegas? Has the press been informed yet?
She has an extensive back ground in grapling. Has belts in Judo, Sambo and JuJutsu. She's was a white belt in BJJ as of 2013. I'm sure she's been training since...
It's straight up delusional.

Not making a big stink out of it, just curious. Again, I didn't watch, but I'm just curious of this did take place or if the person Im hearing this from just misheard.
Nope, but it gives her an advantage that Floyd doesn't have.
Not much of an advantage when she's unconscious on the ground seconds into the fight.

Lol, I thought about responding to him, but then I realized that this conversation is on the same level as arguing who'd win between King Kong and Godzilla, but Godzilla has to have his mouth taped so he can't blow fire. Reality is straight out the fucking window here!
She'd have to be a world class wrestler and at least a purple belt in BJJ to have a chance against an expert MALE boxer like Mayweather, she's neither of those.
Once again, she's an expert in Judo. She'd have to get through Mayweather's punches to even have a chance at being effective. Judo sucks.
