I won’t try and link any vids, but suffice it to say, it was BRUTAL.

Holm owned Rousey in the first round and the high kick to the neck in the second round literally knocked Rousey unconscious. She was asleep when she hit the canvas and Holm got in 3 hammerfists before the ref pulled Holm away.

I’m just gonna say this. What little I saw let me say this (I wasn’t feeling well enough to see the fight, but a friend I roll with gave me some insight)…

This just verifies my feelings that the notions that Rousey was so uber dominant that no female stood a chance was nonsense, especially Cris Cyborg. Cyborg is a seasoned veteran and just recently lost a grueling 5 round World Championship Kickboxing match with one of the best women kickboxers ever. She didn’t just last, she took her the distance and made it close in a discipline that wasn’t her primary discipline. And Cris Cyborg isn’t supposed to be able to compete with Rousey? Huh?

If anything, this just goes to show that there was just TOO MUCH hype surrounding Rousey. She IS an amazing fighter. Not was…IS. That said, NO fighter in MMA stays undefeated, not even Anderson Silva who really was the best MMA has ever seen.

This makes a rematch amazing and now, more than ever, it makes Cyborg getting down to 135 now really important because with Holly Holm, there’s a trio of women to fight, a quartet if you include Meisha Tate.

The women’s division just got fantastically interesting and for all the right reasons.

Congrats to Holly Holm for her stunning victory!!!

Sports is the crucible of human virtue. The distillate remains are human vice.

My Niece fights mma and Boxes as well. Her opinion was Rousey didn’t train for the fight seriously. I found a video of Holly dropping her opponent with the same left roundhouse to the head about a month before the fight and sent it to her(my Niece ) She still thought Rousey would win easy.Even in her last fight, yeah she knocked her out but she ate a few punches on the way in. Holly landed way more and her power is another level above mma fighters. I have not seen a Cyborg fight but Holly and Rousey weighed in equal and Holly looked like a giant compared to Rousey in the octagon. No way Rousey goes up to 145.

Her jaw was broken in three places. Eeeesh.

If I was her, I’d let myself heal, buy a house secluded in the mountains or overlooking a rocky coastline, get fat and play on the internet all day.
