Going with Rousey but if Zingano can keep it standing and land the shots on Rousey like she landed on Tate we might have a new champ.

Tate almost put Zingano in an armbar. It would be cool to see Cat win because she is much more well rounded but If Tate could put her in that position Rouseys taking her arm.

Yeah there's no way she stops Rousey from taking that arm.  Hopefully she drill the hell out of arm bar defense lol.

Cat is definitely a scrapper.  If she can make a fight out of it, who knows....we haven't really seen how Rousey reacts to getting hit much.  Smart money is on Rousey though.

Ronda win by armbar.

Ronda's so good it's not even funny.  She's so good that she uses the same strategy for every fight and no one finds a way to stop her from implementing the same gameplan.

I would love to watch Zingano defeat Rousey, but she won´t her grapling is good but Ronda is at another level, Zingano has power but if Tate could take her down rather easily in the first 7 minutes Ronda is going to take her down in 20 seconds, the only thing Cat has an advantage IMO is her strenght with her BJJ and her strenght she could stop some of Ronda´s submission attempts, but I doubt it, now if she could tag Ronda  very early she could hava a chance but that´s a huge IF.. still I´m going to pick Zingano, there´s probably going to be a Huge upset award chance plus I don´t like Rousey

As usual I'm a little worried about Ronda striking with her, but I'm pretty confident Rousey will take her down, dominate and arm bar her.

Ronda seems to have a pretty good chin. I don't think Zingano's TDD is anything special. She's wiley on the ground as we saw in the Tate fight, but nothing that Rousey hasn't seen before. I wouldn't be surprised if this is Rousey's first fight out of the 1 round, but I'm still picking her to win in the first.

I honestly feel Zigano is the one to beat her,her husband is a BJJ specialist so he can really help her and she has that great killer instinct.

I think Zingano has a better chance then anyone Rousey has previously fought.

Rousey will win again by armbar, but Cat has a serious chance of being the first to make it past the first round

Tate took Cat down, and mounted her in the 1st round. That says enough right there. Ronda takes this via 1st round armbar again. For a minute in that fight Cat had nothing for Tate on the ground. Then all of a sudden, Tate gassed out, and got smashed. If Ronda mounts you, your arm is as good as hers.

Yes Trae is dead on.  She will know Rhonda will go for the armbar, but won't be able to stop her.  I wouldn't be surprised here if Rhonda pulled off something other than an armbar. If it's there though, she will take it.

I think it's gonna be some time until Rousey gets dethroned.. Sure she could get caught by some freak punch or whatever but looking at it right now, no one really has anything to challenge her. 

Sara McMann has a good chance to put up a decent fight due to her have some legitimately high level grappling, maybe ever higher than Ronda seeing as she won an Olympic silver medal gauging on highly you rate an Olympic medal. Saying that, Ronda has that crazy intensity and finishing ability which she uses to dispose of both men and women which means no one has much of a chance at this moment in time. 

One person I would love to see get into MMA would be Kyra Gracie. 2nd degree BJJ black belt and 3 time Abu Dhabi gold medalist. She has been boxing for quite some time apparently while waiting for the right time to make her MMA debut. Now would be as good a time as any and I for one would love to see that fight. If Kyra were to get a few fights under her belt then given Ronda's star appeal and Kyra's last name, you could probably bill that as a super fight of sorts.

I would love to see Cat win the 1st round and make Ronda go back to her corner for the first time just to see how she would react.

I think Ronda will win based on the bad positions Cat got into against Tate, but if Cat can make it into a brawl she will get the tko.

I don't think Cat has decent striking or striking defense. I really think Tate exposed her. Tate gassed and lost b/c Cat had the bigger heart... Cat will need that heart and her SUB defence agains Ronda.  If she can survive on the ground and take the fight beyond the 2nd round, I give her a great chance though. She showed good cardio... huge toughness and an even bigger heart.
