Assuming Rousey wins tonight, will she fight Cyborg next ? and if so who wins?

Good point Wilflet. I think the fight weight makes a difference. Cyborg at 145 keeps it standing and wins via tko but at 135 may gas and get submitted. I still think Tate will get a rematch before this fight. I would love to see Dana White make Rousey vs Tate or Cyborg for the ultimate fighter coaches and bring in a women's class for the UFC but that may be a few years out.

Again, I'm not saying Cyborg would out-grapple her. She does have a size and strength advantage on the ground though, so I think her grappling would be enough to survive and beat Ronda standing.

Go back and watch Cyborg's earlier fights...she was actually a chick. She has definitely taken some steroid-type ****...This would be a very interesting fight though. Anyone else I'm going Ronda by Armbar round 1...this would be a thought-provoking pick.

my instructor was at the mundials and saw girl cyborg competing and he was telling us it wasnt impressive, just pure muscling through a lot of techniques. reminds me a lot of how she is in mma as well, very overpowering, but i dont see her outright overpowering ronda and her grappling is no where near the same level as rondas. cyborg doesnt grab me as the most intelligent chick either

Where else can Strikeforce go? Now we can get a Tate rematch but that will always be Ronda's problem - a lack of competition. Cyborg almost has to make 135 (and with a standard T/E level, I'm sure it will be easier than normal). Women's MMA is surprisingly fun to watch but it isn't to the point where the "names" can be spread out among weight classes.

I have a feeling they will market a superfight at 140 than allow them to go back to their respective divisions.

Cyborg will not have testicles going in to this fight so look for her strength to go down 50%.

Ronda armbars her in the first 10 times out of 10, Cyborg will have no choice but to tap. Once Ronda grabs an arm 100%, she doesnt let go til tap or snap. The fall of Cyborg is gonna happen in 2013

Guys can not believe this fight will happen. My class has no more. I'm waiting for my liberation from the UFC...

As bad s Tate looked last night I could really see a Cyborg Roiusey fight happening and Rousey is more and more impressive each fight so who knows.
