    In no sense or manner of the term did she. On the other hand, I understand the point being made and agree with it.

    You have no idea of the strength of Rousey. She wont knock him out she will make him cry uncle. His bones are no stronger than most peoples.

    Well with boxing rules of course he wins. Now using MMA rules that is another matter. But hes a man so he should kick her butt no problem according to some here. She throws around 200lb MMA guys all the time in practice. She competed against men in Judo

    Slightly stronger than your average male at best.

    It gets good around the 2 minute mark

    Yawn. Seriously? Yes she is strong, but in that video what she is showing is mainly technique not strenght. Also the men in the video were playing the role of dummies.

    This guy is twice her size and you can see could easily beat her but she is a bull dog

    Let me add even a good man in the UFC in her weight class would beat her never mind the champ

    She has more than good odds if it were to be an MMA bout, she would have next to no chance at all if it were boxing only.

    She is definetly a champ, has she actually fought a transgender fighter yet? I don't really follow women's MMA but i've seen a thread here once about how a transgender mma fighter easly destroyed her opponent and how the female fighter was complaining about how hard the transgender hit her. Are they still allowed to fight? If so, how are they doing?

    That'd be an interesting match up; Ronda Rousey vs Fallon Fox.

    I doesn't bother me at all, right is right and wrong is wrong. I only find it amazing how only some wrong is recognized as such.

    This is a sport where you are allowed to jam the point of your elbow into your opponent's eye socket and then strangle them until they go limp in a pool of blood. What is unbelievable is that Rhonda and her current boyfriend don't seem to have the sense to realize that love does not blossom under these circumstances. What they need to do is find someone who is the exact opposite. As far as fairness goes what do you expect from a macho sport that fits right in with the Romans?

    When you are talking about two conditioned athletes and one is male and one is female, the male is generally much stronger. There are no big name former boxers in the UFC that I know of. The rules of boxing create weaknesses that are too easily exploited in MMA, one big one being the boxing rule against kicking. That allows the boxer to work off his lead leg to put his weight into his punches. The MMA fighter can reach the lead leg without putting himself in range for the boxer's fists and once he kicks the crap out of it a few times, the boxer will not be able to put weight on it. Once the boxer shifts to a back leg stance, all his muscle memory through years of training that was geared to a front leg stance, suddenly doesn't do him a lot of good. And unless the boxer also wrestled, he probably has no takedown defense and no ground skills.

    That theory might might make sense if you were talking about a professional MMA female taking on the average guy off the street, but against a professional male athlete she is going to get a beat down especially if he is trying to hurt her.
