Ronda's actually really bad at some things.

Losing is one of them.

well Ronda decided to get into sports and become really good at it and become rich and famous, so that right there basically is proof that she is a loving gay retard when she couldve just become a computer programmer.

Sweet.


Also, I like that Dana's now officially referring it to as the "Liddell/Griffin/Hughes kinda jobs." Wonder how many old fighters they can ultimately keep on the payroll to do silly promotional stuff.

UFC 191 – PPV
September 5 - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
Main Card: 10PM ET/7PM PT | Prelims: 8PM ET/5PM PT | Early Prelims: 7PM ET/4PM PT
Quick Summary: Man, this would be a pretty rad Fox card. Unfortunately, so far this card
is a pretty good argument for why the UFC needs fewer PPVs.


Vs

Vs

Card in Progress
Flyweight Championship: Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson (C) (22-2-1) vs. John Dodson (#1) (17-6)
Heavyweight: Andrei Arlovski (#4) (24-10) vs. Frank Mir (#10) (18-9)
Light Heavyweight: Anthony Johnson (#1) (19-5) vs. Jimi Manuwa (#7) (18-4)
Flyweight: Joseph Benavidez (#2) (22-4) vs. Henry Cejudo (#5) (9-0)

Strawweight: Paige VanZant (#8) (5-1) vs. Alex Chambers (5-2)
Lightweight: Nazareno Malegarie (23-3) vs. Joaquim Silva (7-0)

Apparently you can add Jan "BJ" Blachowicz vs Corey "Worst nickname in MMA" Anderson to the main card.

Do you think a calm and respectful deference to the champ in the buildup would have got her off lighter?

No, but even talking about someone's late father, especially when she knew Ronda's background, was stupid as hell and probably contributed to her quick loss :lol:

No, but she would have looked like less of an rear end in a top hat afterwards.

"She's good, but I'm better" is a reasonable line of trashtalk and probably even necessary to make you believe you can actually beat the champ. "She's terrible and has been built up by the media" just means that after you get demolished you look like utter garbage.

Exactly. There's building a fight and then there's making it personal with unnecessary disrespectful attacks on family or saying you hope your opponent doesn't kill themselves after, knowing full well what had happened to them in the past. Bethe got exactly what she deserved and christ was it sweet to see happen.

remusclaw
Dec 8, 2009

You know, I don't disagree at all, but she was gonna get killed regardless. Maybe the personal poo poo made a few people who weren't going to bother with the show tune in to to see the beating, maybe it didn't. Ronda is so high above everyone I wouldn't know what they would need to do to get an edge on her.

Ronda did mention there that she was going deliberately for the ko, and that she could have finished the fight earlier if she wanted to, so I guess all the thrash talk did ended up biting bethe in her rear end.

I think I mentioned it before, but when people heard Ronda say she was going to teach Bethe a lesson, everyone assumed 'broken arm with the swiftness'. No one thought faceplant knockout, which is what made it so ridiculous when it happened. I mean, to literally wade into your opponent's strength and destroy her, good f'ing christ.

Maybe if Bethe hadn't been such a bitch, Rousey would have immediately hit the takedown, grabbed an arm and won in 20 seconds like normal. Instead she did THAT.

I am happy to learn that Ronda bet her mom and sister a hamster dance if she won in less than a minute.

May 16, 2003

eh, I dunno. Ronda might just be saying that to rub salt in the wound, I don't really feel that it had much bearing on the outcome. Bethe isn't the first person she's KO'd. I think the trash talk leading up to getting completely chumped did make Bethe come off pretty badly and might be bad for her career longterm, like she might not get much benefit of the doubt from the fans and the UFC if she loses her next fight decisively as well. Whereas Zingano, Davis and McMann still have a little goodwill going for them.

Anyways speaking of bad fighters,



lol. What are they now, 1-7 aside from Ronda since TUF 18?

It'd be cool if they did that rematch and Bethe just beat her rear end again. Except for the fight itself, it would probably be bad and not cool.

This is maybe the only time I've ever believed a fighter who said this sort of thing, and it's solely because Rousey could almost undoubtedly have pretzeled her on the ground at will, yet when she tripped Correia and she sort of clumsily rolled around on the canvas Rousey didn't even begin to try to go to the ground with her. She just waited until Correia was on her feet and went back to hitting her.
