Prediction: Carano  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 1

This would be the perfect fight to fix.  Just have Carano land a big punch and the rematch will sell twice as much. I think it would help woman's MMA with the " general mainstream" public. I would do it.

^As crazy as that sounds, and as crazy as the man who said it is, I'd actually do it too.

I mean the UFC would make so much ******* BANK with a Carano/Rousey II fight, especially if the PPV coincided with the release of Expendables 3 and some Carano movie.

Prediction: Rousey  |  Decision

Dana tells Ronda to use her judo to win rounds, but not get the finish. Gina has moments in the fight, maybe takes a round or 2, but this ends up as the 5 rounder that makes people wanna see more WMMA. Ronda keeps the belt, but Carano makes her return to MMA for good.

If this fight happens Rousey wins by simply walking to the octagon.

Wait people STILL try to say Ronda fears Cyborg? I often wonder if these people know Cyborg was offered a shot and instead of taking it she asked to be released from the promotion. Things that make you go hmmmmm.


Can't wait to see what happens with Carano. I have been a big fan and supporter of Rousey (the fighter) since her first pro fight; but even I would have to root for Carano.

Wasn't there rumblings about Carano going to Bellator? Better suited for her, if true. She needs several, several tune up fights before fighting Ronda.

Ronda Rousey vs Anthony Johnson at Rumbleweight would of been so much better.

Prediction: Rousey  |  Submission  |  Round 1

Truthfully other than two big women's namesake fighters coming together I hate this fight. It is a ploy to sell pay per views and a way to put Ronda Rousey on a higher enough pedestal. I like Ronda Rousey and she always finishes, but I would much rather see her fight an actual contender rather than having Carano jump to the front of the line.

I think we all agree that the proper way to do things is to have a champion fight a legitimate contender. Who would that be exactly?

Nunes/Zingano winner, Nakai (if she beats Tate), Correia, and Holm all are more legitimate options than Carano.

I like the zingango/nunes winner as the next title challenger. What' is going on with Holm? Did the UFC end up signing her or not?
