Rousey is done. She didn't even look like a professional fighter out there. I'm no fighter at all but I'd least make a better attempt to block some of those punches instead of just standing there. She was the best at the time but not anymore.

Exactly. She knew what to expect and I'm sure trained for it. She's a one trick pony that was exposed once she went against above average strikers. It's not her fault she can't do **** unless she can lock in an arm bar. Hopefully she up and vanishes like a fart in the wind

It reminds me of the earlier days when Grace dominated. Then people figured out how to not be taken down and he was done.

Part of that is not being trained how to not get chin checked when you know the opponent is going to come and test it and the other part is her being out on her feet for about 30-35 sec of the fight

If she's not going to go train with a real gym that will teach her how to close some of the holes in her game she needs to go ahead and retire. The blueprint on how to embarrass her is out there and anyone with above avg hands is going to keep putting her to sleep

She literally has the worst trainer I've ever seen at that level. He has no idea what he is doing. The gameplan for her last two fights have been non existent. Ronda looked like she had never thrown punches tonight and had no plan to deal with the agressivenes of Nunez that everyone knew was coming. He's horrible and if she wants to fight again he should be fired tonight.

Yep if she chooses to keep fighting her whole staff needs to be changed up. The dude that convinced her that she's a boxer and can throw hands with anyone ruined her career

The Rousey fight is getting the headlines, but Garbrandt is the real story. He just dominated one of the best ever and hasn't even hit his prime yet. If he beats Dillashaw, which I think he will, I don't see anyone beating him for a long time. He can be something special.

Dillashaw is a tougher matchup for him, I think. Should be good

It's a hard fight to pick. It could definitely go either way. There are some similarities between Cruz and Dillashaw, and Cody fought Cruz perfectly. I think he'll have a good game plan for Dillashaw too. Dillashaw is more dangerous than Cruz though. Dillashaw has a pretty good chin, but he can get caught. I don't know if Cody has Dodson power, but he's got enough to finish the fight. That's not much to base a prediction on, but it's a difficult fight to predict.

Cruz's speed and pace was too much for Dillashaw. CG is probably every bit as quick as Cruz, which is why he beat Cruz, but he won't present the same problem that stymied Dillashaw bc CG doesn't fight with that same pace. It's a toss up, in my mind.

It'll be a fun one to watch for sure. How much did their time at Alpha Male overlap? If they do know each other that well, it could play a factor too.
