Shamrock vs Kimbo... place your bets.

Age vs skill, strength vs talent, black vs white... :later

If you were going against her you'd think that takedown defense would be #2 right behind arm bar defense. :laughing

And both of those would be right behind asking her if she'd rather go get something to eat or catch a movie or something... anything but a match. :laughing:laughing:laughing
 
you can train takedown and armbar defense al you want, she is still getting the takedown and arm bar all day long.

these women have nothing for her. nothing. ,they arent even close to her level or dedication. ronda has been trained by a 6th dan judo practicioner and national champ (her mom) since she was a child. by the time most these women learned about mma ronda was an olympic hopeful. cat zingano is wrestling in high school while ronda is getting trained by some of the best in the world at judo.

yopu cant just be, "oh imma train TDD", especially when most these women are glorified amatuers and the drop off in talent is so huge between the top few and the rest. zingano started bjj in 2007, three years AFTER ronda was in the olympics while still a teenager. shot ronda is 5 years YOUNGER than cat yet has so much more expeirence its insane

the girl that is going to beat rousey isnt even in mma yet.

Punk had his first "fight"

http://espn.go.com/blog/mma/post/_/id/21859/roufus-recaps-cm-punks-scrimmage

Punk, birth name Phil Brooks, fought Craig Eckelberg in a "scrimmage" Monday at Roufusport Academy in Milwaukee. The former WWE star, who signed with the UFC in December despite no MMA experience, has been training in Wisconsin with Duke Roufus the last eight weeks.

A crowd of about 100 people saw the fight, according to Roufus, who wanted to create an atmosphere as close to a real fight as possible. Brooks and Eckelberg (4-0), a former NCAA Division III wrestler, fought three three-minute rounds. Roufus served as the referee.

"What we have is a controlled environment to simulate an amateur career for Punk," Roufus told ESPN.com. "We'll probably do another 'amateur' match in four to six weeks.

"We created a crowd scenario. All our students got a chance to watch him and were cheering him on. [UFC lightweight champion] Anthony Pettis was in Punk's corner. There was a lot of hooting and hollering. We tried to make a little Thunderdome the best we could.

Of course, obvious question: How did the 36-year-old Brooks look against a legitimate opponent?

"He did pretty good against a guy who is 4-0," Roufus said. "Did he win the match if we had scored it? No, he did not -- but that's cool with him. He likes the struggle. There are certain people who enjoy going into the fire and becoming a phoenix. Most people like to avoid that fire."
 
I guess it's the only way he is going to get some experience but it's a good way to get injured before you have your real UFC fight.

Me too.

I think if Cat doesn't charge in like that again, she might last a full minute, maybe even 2.

Gotta keep Ronda on her feet.
