    You cant use a lot of that groundwork when in a real streetfight out in the streets with no rules it just doesnt work. Rousey is not beating and pro boxer or mma man in an actual no rules fight.
    No doubt mma is great for self defence but groundwork is a very dangerous place to go with no rules

    Does the person your fighting have friends that will now jump in and kick the living **** out of you while you are down do they have a weapon they can use? On the ground you can not run away if needed

    Why are you making 8 new threads at once? Too many UFC posts. You won't last long here

    It is stupid, and the stupdiest thing is that somehow, MMA fans get off on comparing Rhonda Rousey to Randy Couture.

    This is another MMA fanboy myth.
    The truth: Ronda listed height is inflated. She's really 5'5. Floyd has 3 inches in height, 6 inches in reach and has successfully won PRO TITLES at a weight thats 16 pounds north of her MMA competition weight. Ronda ballooning up between fights by eating pizza and hot dogs doesnt mean she's fit to fight like that. A 16 pound competitive difference is going to feel like a functional 35 lb difference considering the muscle to fat body composition difference between men and women.

    Rousey was listed as 5'5 in the Olympics, 5'6 in Strikeforce and then 5'7 in the UFC. She must have had a growth spurt in her late 20's lol.

    But as you say, Rousey and Mayweather, both at 150lbs, translates to about an extra 30 to 40lbs of muscle that Mayweather will have on her. As well as being twice as quick.

    mayweather beating women is a big disadvantage for rousey if they fought.

    that means he wont hold back like most men do against women

    Rousey at 160 plus is fat, she was pretty chubby at 70kg in the Olympics. I mean Ricky Hatton used to "walk around" at 190 plus, doesn't mean he was naturally bigger than someone like Hopkins.

    This is a male compared to female we are talking about here and whilst Mayweather might not have overall weight on her (at her between fight weight), as a man he will have muscle weight on her (i.e a much greater percentage of his body is made up of muscle), along with denser bones and less fat. Which is why men are much stronger than women, even when the same size and even smaller. This is just basic human biology.

    Rousey is not bigger or more muscular than Mayweather. She will also be no where near as strong.

    Rousey at 135lbs

    Well no posing pic of maywether will change she is more muscular than he is,she trains with guys who would belittle Floyd physically and even McGregor has stated she would take him down ,so where you think she wouldn't throw little Floyd around is not reality.Look at her at the espy awards she is about 160 there and makes Floyd look like a little kid in comparison.

    Little Floyd fights men at 150lbs plus. Big Ronda won't fight another girl above 135lbs:lol:
