Yep. We see them around here all the time.

Speaking of...I was giving pointers to Keith Jardine on how to swing at the Santa Monica rings today.  That was surreal!  Of course, we talked a little about UFC and I mentioned that I used to go see the Rage in the Cage fights back in Phoenix.  Funny..I actually watched him, as well as, Edwin Dewees fight back in 2001 when he first started fighting MMA. Totally forgot about that.

I only watched the prelims.  Looking forward to seeing the 34 seconds of fury!

It's like I keep saying:  Those who would sacrifice a free range session for a giant beer, deserve neither free range time nor a giant beer.

That girl should change her name to ass beater.

The UFC has a big issue with Ronda dominating the division. There is no parity and she already destroyed just about everyone. How long will people pay for her to dominate another subpar opponent? Dany is already talking about bundling up her fight with Miesha Tate with Aldo/Connor, which he knows will be a huge fight.

Maybe she should start fighting guys?

Ronda had yet another short fight, but this time she was on the receiving end. Holy beat her ass, Beat her Ass! She bloodied her up in the first then knocked her out in the second and sent her to the hospital.

I fell asleep early so I missed the fight. My first thought, (without seeing any if it) was why the hell would she try beating Holm at her own game?

Because that's all anyone talked about. Is she a good striker.? So being a smart ass she thought she could match her. Wrong!!

Nah, not the case. She's been training like a beast as usual, she let her head get in the way of her game.

I think this is right. I just watched the fight online and RR was a different person in the ring this time. I wanted her to get the win but I don't dislike HH either.

As soon as I watched the weigh in video I wondered if RR was done for.  She was so aggressive and wild even at the weigh in that it made me wonder where her head was.

I think she felt the fight was in the bag from the get go.

Holm had obvious respect for her opponent.

One thing I've learned in life is that whether it's riding or fighting or whatever, as soon as you relax and get comfortable, become complacent, you get bit.

GK

Didn't watch it, it's not really my thing.

However, going by the press here in Melbourne, you couldn't come to any conclusion other than that Rhonda would stitch her opponent up.
