Against Zingano "Rousey Wins between 0:00 and 1:00 of the first round" was like +500 at 5dimes. That is some value right there.

I think she's going to try to take her time against Correia, like she did against Tate in their 2nd fight, to make a point. I think her goal is to humiliate Bethe in front of her home country.

Is it my imagination or is RR actually 'staring down' the arm not in the eyes in the picture above?

EDIT:  The back arm

I doubt Rousey "took her time" against Tate - Tate simply resisted a lot by being the strongest woman in the division after Rousey, and because Rousey would take no finish but the armbar.

Anyway, I think once she is inside the octagon Rousey just wants to win as quickly as possible. She won't try to make a point that doesn't have to be made.

Rousey was saying prior to there 2nd matchup that she wanted to make it clear that Tate didn't deserve to be in there with her. With the goal of no one wanting to see Tate ever challenge her again. Putting an end to their rivalry.

I think Rousey could of blown through Tate again if she had wanted to. But she wanted to dominate Tate over a prolonged period in all aspects.

I seriously doubt anyone prolongs a fight they can finish earlier in order to dominate at those levels. Not even her.

For some reason people fail to understand just how tough Miesha is after all she's shown to date.

She may not be the best or amazing at any aspect of the sport, but I guarantee that when it comes to toughness and heart she's second to none.

She managed to survive Ronda's blitz is why it took "so long". Also, let's not forget that she's the first girl that's fought Ronda in a rematch. I can imagine, when you've felt Ronda's first round blitz already it makes it a tad easier (if that word can even be used in this case) to not let it overwhelm you the second time around. You're more like "nnnnngg ... must ... survive" rather than "whada****wasthat?!?!?". 

Eventually Ronda's supremacy will prevail, but there's no shock factor which usually takes it's toll on first time Ronda-ers.

I think Miesha gave her all she could and did herself proud.  I mean, nobody has lasted that long with RR.  If you asked RR and cameras were off, I bet she would say that was her toughest fight.

EDIT:  And not just because it lasted longer than the others.

Well, buckle up, because we may see Rousey v. Tate III. Depends on if she can beat Jessica Eye in an eliminator.

It's inevitable that Tate and Rousey will fight again, even if Tate loses, she'll get back somehow. She's really the only one who's had even a tiny bit of success against Ronda.

Ya those two will fight again and the trilogy will end 3-0.

Joe Silva could save himself some time and just use this to pick Ronda's next opponent.

Carmouche had a bit of success too with that guillotine.

Carmouche absolutely had the most success against Ronda out of any of her opponents to date. Tate-2 wasn't even close or competitive. There wasn't a single minute that she won in the fight. It was just a prolonged beating while Ronda ragdolled her around cage.

Rousey could beat the entire division in a single night. Gauntlet match style. Like her character on TTTHS said "Why don't we just line up the whole division right outside the cage? Just open the gate, they come in one by one BOOM ******' judo flip armbar. Next one. We'll be done in like, I dunno 10 minutes." Accurate.
