Ronda Rousey vs. Floyd Mayweather (SRS)

[broteinshake84]

Rogan says Ronda would beat Floyd Mayweather in an MMA Fight!!! Do you agree with this? All he would need is ONE punch and night night!

[teflonwig]

Rogan needs to stop with these fuking hypotheticals. /thread

[Road2Perfection]

one punch? is he going to do the knockout game? thats the only way he would ko ronda. Of course ronda would defeat floyd anywhere but a boxing ring

[atrent]

Lmao at anyone who picks rousey over floyd

[Nicolasl]

ronda by armbar

[SwayWay]

I swear to god Rogan must get paid a locker room bonus for every time he hypes ufc outside of sanctioned events. The idea that a women like Rhonda can handle a single punch or jab from Mayweather and even get close enough to grapple with him is ludicrous.

[kathebrahl]

rousey would try to bully her way in a clinch and get hit 8 times before she knows what happened

[KeRiZmA]

Lmao at anyone who picks rousey over floyd

Ronda would armbar floyd with ease.

[RickRaws]

wow, i like rogans podcasts but what a ****ing retarded thing to say

[johnnycomehome]

Ronda would armbar floyd with ease.

Pls be troll

She wouldn't be able to get close to him without getting KO'd

Brb elite boxers get tuned up trying to walk him down but Rhonda Rousey would just be able to jump at him

[Magicmees]

Theres a chance for sure. A rather slim one but defineatly has a chance... but probably would have to Werdum his way to a win, pretend getting hurt, jump on her back and hope for Floyid to jump in her guard.

[yuppers12]

if anyone thinks Floyd would win then they know nothing about fighting, period

lol ok.

Ever since couture/toney, people swear to god that any mma fighter will murder a boxer.

Let's look at that fight. Randy, an elite wrestler and decorated mma fighter, against a FAT retired boxer. The only reason that fight went that was was because of the takedown. Does anyone seriously think Honda would be able to get close enough to clinch? Because she sure as chit ain't shooting on Money...

And before anyone goes back to early ufc fights, saying "look at what happened to the strikers when facing a grappler!!!" Those strikers don't have a percentage of a fraction money has.

Hondas only hope is to clinch. She would NEVER get close enough to do so. She would get gave melted as soon as she got within distance

Nto to mention Toney's style is horrible to use against a MMA fighter. Even in his prime, Toney stood flat-footed and only used his shoulder as defense. He never uses a lot of footwork so he would always be vulnerable to a TD. Floyd would likely be harder to take down because he's often light on his feet with excellent footwork. He can circle out the way and land a 6 punch combo before someone like Ronda ever realized what happened.

[Boffothe]

Ronda's biggest issue (aside from being a woman) would be that her striking defense is apparently learned from copying Whacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man

[Nosje]

exactly bunch of fukking retards.

[superamped]

this isnt a judoka vs boxer in a mma fight. its mma fighter vs boxer in a mma fight. rhonda armbar by 20 seconds

[cgc]

Some of you act like Toney v Couture was the first time the "striker vs grappler" fight has ever happened.
It can happen, but it generally doesn't go very well for the "striker" if they can't keep the fight standing (which most can't/don't).

Now Ronda vs Floyd....thats interesting. Certainly not an impossibility for Ronda to win it though....I think a male would do better just with the additional strength.
But what does it matter, this isn't a fight we'll ever see.

I also don't know if Rogan is one to just tote the company line. As much as a nut hugger he was of Fedor (even mentioned him a time or two during UFC PPVs), I don't know if he would just hype the UFC train just because they sign his checks.

[Cannonsex]

Plausible. I can see Mayweather's defense giving Ronda a bit of problem early on. In rounds 3/4 however Mayweather wont be able to handle Ronda's heat and will probably get TKO'd.

[mp83]

Ronda would obviously have to clinch him, then take him down. However, it would be really hard for her to close the distance for the clinch. Mayweather hits far, far harder than anyone she has ever fought (and is way stronger than anyone she has ever fought), and her striking defense is about as good as a punching bags. I would imagine one hit from him and she would get startled and be afraid to close the distance. That, added with his ridiculous hand speed, and she would be in big trouble. Her style is not exactly good against a boxer, also, due to her usually trying to take down from the clinch.

She obviously could win, but I think odds are pretty good that Mayweather would win by KO.

[RoccoTanno123]

unless floyd catches her with some power shots coming in, he's ****ed. you guys are seriously delusional if you think Ronda won't take him down from the clinch, and as soon as she gets top position? pass...and armbar

Ronda is clearly overhyped for p4p but she'd definitely win this 8x out of 10.

How is she going to clinch him, though? He isn't going to just stand there and let her come in for the clinch. And let's face it, her striking defense isn't exactly stellar

[Deathstroke]

The ONE dude she claims she would beat whom she actually would is Cyborg...otherwise she's just trolling for the lol's.

[ClownToucher]

Lmao, Mayweather is an elite male athlete. He has that boxing cardio, speed and footwork. He wouldn't come in there expecting a boxing match and be surprised. He could easily control distance, land a nasty jab and finish her before she even has a chance. Technique can only make up for so much.

And Cain! If they ever fought, RIP Cain

[Deathstroke]

Yeah! Sits corrected. I KNOW THAT WOULD HAPPEN!

Yeah ... Rondas first ever tko is gonna come against floyd, who barely gets punched by other pro MALE boxers.

I think you're officially ready for the deep frier because you just went full potato brah.

[Shmigly]

she technically got a "tko" last time round, even though it was an early stoppage.

[RoccoTanno123]

How? shoot for a double, drive him back against the fence, go for a low single, go for an ankle pick, thwack him with some leg kicks or front kicks and then clinch up when he grimaces or drive him so his back is against the cage and he's screwed, etc.

You're right that Ronda's striking defense isn't stellar. But Floyd isn't exactly blasting people out with glancing shots. His movement is as ridiculous as it used to be either. Obviously, if he hits Ronda with any power shots, she's in trouble, but let's not act like any shot from Floyd would automatically just wax her; there's not enough evidence to support that.

Ronda also doesn't retreat as much as she used to when getting into punching exchanges. She pretty much waits for people to throw an overhand right, and then ducks under and grabs them, usually by the head.

[xpin2winx]

I would side with Rousey beating Floyd in an mma fight. Its similar to the early UFCs, Royce gracie was able to take out people double his size.
