Prediction: correct Rousey   correct Submission   wrong Round 1  

I agree,the only woman i see to outmuscle Rousey is Cyborg. I see Cyborg being able to outmuscle her and stay off the ground, but we'll never know, aren't we?

Cat has a black belt in jiu jitsu i remember? Her hubby owns a bjj gym. That would be interesting considering her stand up is better and she's stronger than Rousey.

Prediction: correct Rousey   correct Submission   wrong Round 1  

Yeah I think Zingano can be a challenging fight for Rousey, but I still think Ronda would be able to take her down before taking too much damage standing. 

Same idea with Cyborg if she ever comes down to 135 major threat standing obviously, but can Ronda take her down and submit her? maybe... she did lose her first mma fight by submission. Basically I'd pick Ronda over anyone at 135. Zingano with confidence, and I'd be a little worried about a fight with Cyborg.

Yeah but people evolve..
And i think Cat could use her knowledge to get up from the takedown than actually doing damage on the ground... 2 cents, I know Ronda is the fav in that one too, for obvious reasons

I love you Ronda and I think you're going to win but holy crap is Miesha fine as hell.

At least 2 points ahead of Ronda..

Prediction: wrong Tate   wrong Decision  

i used to love Rousey....i studied the first fight. Tate is a beast....and if she can control herself....Rousey is in for a long night.....We know Tate can go the distance....what happens if Tate fights smarter and doesn't attack like a mad woman? She was pieceing Rhonda up last time....lets just hope Rousey has better standup....im picking the upset.

For all the pre-fight drama, this is still a mismatch.  Maybe not really a -700 type mismatch, but a mismatch nonetheless.

Prediction: correct Rousey   correct Submission   wrong Round 1  

I think Ronda probably has good cardio but a good point was made about how Ronda hasn't gone far into a fight, which can test even the best fighters cardio and make them break. We have no idea what will happen when Ronda faces adversity, and especially if she's getting dominated or is dominating, will she run out of gas? I'm leaning towards no, just because of her dedication and drive to physical fitness etc. I agree with those saying Miesha has a good chance to win this, especially as the fight goes on, if the fight goes on. Because Miesha definitely proved she can dig deep in fights. I would have let the Cat Zingano fight go longer but that's up to opinion however Julie Kedzie was working Miesha over way worse, she got head kicked and she came back to win, she arm-triangled Marloes Coenen in the 4th round, she refused to tap as Ronda was breaking her arm. Miesha definitely has a lot of talent and potential to win, she has the edge in cardio right now because of the unknowns on Ronda and Ronda's style could be very tiring for a 5 round fight.

I want to like Rousey but, her lack of integrity just screams rip my head off. I hope Tate does so.

Fantastic fight GJ ladies. 

I rly dont get all the hate RRR is getting. Rousey is absolutely insane but she is so strong willed, skilled, and determined she imposes her reality on those around her, and to me that is extremely exciting. Now she is not the happy sportswoman champ but so what? Its not like shes disrespecting people to sell tickets, she simply speaks and acts how she feels.
