Holy bleeping bleep! She did it. Wow.
Big victory for Jackson/Winkeljohn, they trained someone who beat Rousey. And Rousey bought too much into her standup, overconfident thanks to all those easy victories.
Rousey should have wrestled. She had too high of an opinion of herself
Rousey got obliterated.
I am utterly frickin’ astounded!
Gotta watch the post game show :O
Well she tried to get her down a second time and couldn’t. Plus she was chasing Holly the whole time.
I’m there with you!!!
Was this expected?
Anyone who put money on Holm must be feeling pretty good right now!!
I wonder if Ronda will leave Edmund, whom everyone seems to hate, and train with a better team.
Ronda looked way under prepared and ran into a an experienced fighter who she couldn’t outmuscle. Tactically very bad from RR and her camp, but all credit to Holly Holm, great game plan and executed well.
So did I call it or what?
Step-son just showed me the finish. For those who’ve not seen it yet prepare to be amazed!
No. Ronda was supposed to take her down and armbar her under a minute. Ronda tried it but Holly got out of it. Very impressive!
Rousey feeling the Bern!
Especially in her head and face.
That bell will be ringing for a few days.
This has been one hell of thread history was made tonight hats off to the Holly preacher’s daughter Holm!
Maybe I’m old-fashioned, but I just don’t get this excitement over women fighting, doesn’t seem right to me.
That was VERY cool to witness. And of course, there’s going to be a gigantic rematch with a matching prize purse. Just fricking awesome. Not an exact duplicate, but Tyson-Buster Douglas kind of shock is what that was.
Yeah, she ran into someone who trains at real camp, had a real game plan and not intimidated. A lot of it looked like overconfidence in many areas, which takes down the biggest of people.
Good - serves her right after she endorsed Barry Sanders the other day.
She endorsed an NFL Hall of Famer?
Professional women fighters can fight each other.
That much is okay in my book. They are tough as nails too.
