This is a tough call.  I look at Nunes 4 loses but that one Rousey loss was super devastating to her.  Rousey is looking better physically but I am not sure where she is mentally at this point.  Nunes seems very focused.


I think if Nunes can frustrate Rousey early and doesn't allow her to get into her arm bar submission she might win a decision.   Rousey will have to win this in first round or I will give it to Nunes.  The longer the fight goes, the better Nunes chances.

I love Rousey but would like to see her move to WWE and the film work she does.  Actually liked her in Furious and Expendables.

After seeing weigh ins my opinion has swung back the other way. Rousey looked dehydrated. scared and ran off stage again. She is getting beat.  She also looked about three inches shorter once both girls were barefoot.

If Ronda can rush Nunes without taking a big punch and get her on the ground before they start sweating, she can pull this off. If not, Nunes will obliterate her. Ronda got beaten to a pulp by Holm who wasn't even a KO puncher as a boxer. She got tagged solidly in both Tate fights, but Miescha's technique was so bad at the time that her punches carried little power. Nunes hits harder than either of them and has footwork that should be good enough to avoid the clinch and throw judo attack long enough to end Rousey's career.

Ronda is going to kick her ass plain and simple

After much back and forth my sadistic side has won...really hoping Nunes beats her in most humiliating way imaginable.  Perhaps a crucifix hold and elbow strikes and she starts tapping out but Nunes gets one last one in and she does unconscious.  She wakes up and does not know she lost and everyone laughs at her.

Nice.  That was what I expected.

Lousy Ronda Rousey isn't so great when her opponent has good standup skills.

nobody can stand toe to toe with nunes she will beat u up , just like she did tate and now rousey

Rousey should have taken this fight to the ground ASAP instead of trying to keep pace with Nunes' striking.

Rousey doesn't have the skill to take a good puncher with good footwork down. She legitimately has the worst trainer in the sport and has no idea what to do now that she can't bully girls that are smaller than her (Rousey fought judo at 154 and started MMA at 145 before ducking Cyborg and moving down to 135).

Nunes has legit footwork and Rousey could barely get close enough to get her hands on Nunes. That fight will end the same way every single time until Ronda changes camps.

[HumiliationOne]

Keep pace? Come on. She didn't even fight. Got hit once and panicked and froze up. She is a shell of her former self. No disrespect to Nunes but I don't know who in top 10 she can beat anymore. That Holm loss KO stole her soul. I do have guilt for the incredible turn on seeing her looking like a helpless punching bag gave me.

She would still destroy everyone from 6 down (McMann, Zingano, etc) because they have zero standup game. In the top 5, she would beat Pennington and Pena pretty easily. Nunes and Holm are physically as big as/bigger than Ronda, have good to great footwork, and have enough punching power to stop her typical rush to the clinch.

Rousey was, and is, a one trick pony. Her trainer is widely regarded as the worst coach in MMA with standup being his weak spot.

Travis Browne, Ronda's current boyfriend, was 16-2-1 and a title contender when he moved to Ronda's coach. Since then he's 2-3 and the wins were against a guy who is now retired and a guy who is no longer in UFC.

If Rousey goes to a real camp, she's got a chance. If she sticks with the fraud coach, she needs to retire.

[WildAtHeart]

Maybe we can send Rousey to the mma.xxx.com and she can fight there now.

It would have been even better if Ronda's hair was down and we saw her fly with each punch Nunes delivered to Ronda's face. That's a turn on. Cheers! Tony
