    There's something you need to realize. Men's sports have a MUCH higher level of competition than women's. Rousey's the best in the women's bantamweight division? Well, good for her. However, even a journeyman in the men's bantamweight division would destroy her.

    I'm not even being ***ist. I'm just stating facts.

    Floyd would have all the physical advantages if they fought.

    So are you saying a guy like even MMa fighter,champion Connor Mcgregor wouldn't get taking down by her?

    Connor McGregor would destroy her. I can't believe we're even having this discussion.

    " I met Rousey once,lets just say she would throw me on my head in a second if we clinched,i certainly wouldn't want to engage in a grappling contest with her shes stronger than even me" Connor Mc Gregor



    Yet LITTLE Floyd "NO" mma experience EVER can win right? :lol:

    Sounds like he is a good company man.

    But if that were true, then imagine what a male World and Olympic Champion would do to Connor McGregor.

    Well theres weight classes for a reason! I also didn't say she would beat him, however if she can take him down if she grabbed him,think what she would do to Maywether?


    I wasn't comparing Connor to grapplers,simply saying Floyd would be tossed around easily with an elite one,his strength vs Rondas doesn't go in his favor.Olymic champs don't mean they have the fight IQ or submissions of Rousey either.

    Was Rousey's newaza considered elite? It can vary so much in Judo from one person to another, but you know that. Pretty sure an Olympic medalist will know how to do a juji gatame (armlock).

    Will she ever enter a grappling competition? No, because if she loses or even worse taps out (to another female) it would hurt her chances making the fight with Floyd.

    you don't really think this fight is going to happen do you? :lol:



    Nope a pure wrestler doesn't give you automatic judo or jui jitsu skills. the reality is Mayweather would have trouble with others besides a rousey type fighter,all the MMa training he did wiould only get him so far,his style is not suited to a cage its that simple....Pacman would be much more stylistically better for MMA!

    Floyd also has a longer reach. 72 in vs. 66 in.

    Combine that with Floyd's speed advantage, and Rousey will have a hard time getting inside.

    Well, did they train together? Did she take him down? Was he holding back?

    I don't think either ,however he would know based on what he felt,fighters intuition,even he is not delusional to look past her,those who actually train in grappling would see she is more than capable of breaking some ribs with takedowns mlae or female it doesn't matter really and in Floyds case his little frail 150 pound body would be tossed like a 5th grader fighting a senior in high school..

    What does that video prove? That she has no class when she lands on him like that. Completely unnecessary.

    Explain? I take it you have never done judo. She didn't need to land on him like that, she could have stayed standing. Nevermind the video shows her in the position to throw. So I take it, he let her get the grip and position she wanted. Even more reason she didn't need to do that.

    If you know judo you know the momentum takes you over the hip throw,she didn't even do it hard really,as stated the guy is much smaller than her real 200 plus trainers. she would have got the grip anyway and that wasn't the point,if you really think mayweather will stop her takedowns any which way you are wrong! he needsa k.o and a fast one,to bad most likely it would not happen as stated shes to good at grappling and his boxing style is horrible for MMA!


    Is Floyd going to cry if she did that to him? :hey
