    Tell us how you really feel, Meisha Tate...

    Miesha Tate had no problem kicking Ronda Rousey when she was down following Holly Holm's shocking knockout victory in the UFC 193 main event. Tate (17-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC), a longtime rival of Rousey (12-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC), did not put a filter on her thoughts about Holm's

      How many UFC fighters ever had the guts to attempt a transition into boxing? I can't think of any but maybe there has been a few.

      Stand up striking, a boxer wins. If it's crawling around the mat, the mma fighter wins.

      As for the boxers who attempted the transition into UFC and failed....for once I agree with Hector....they were washed up fat boxers. We have yet to see a skilled in their prime fighter from each sport mix it up.

              Rousey didn't even look like she trained for the fight. To much time spent on talk shows.

                Perhaps she will go quietly into the night,retire gracefully?
                I called this.It was a no brainer really,there was no way she could win a stand up game with holly in my opinion.
                On the ground Rhonda would have been dominant and submitted holly.
                Hard to believe she got sucked into Holly's game...lol
                No matter how good you are (or think you are)there is always somebody better just waiting for a chance to show you.

                  Yeah. I guess the mom has been on their arse for sometime. I thought something was wrong when I read the head guy filed for bankruptcy like, last month. Of all the times he should be cash-flush, it's right now. So it looks like she had a totally distracted teams and simply expected Ronda would get a clinch at some point and then squeeze like an anaconda. But Holm, man, when she ducked that left cross/elbow hook and slid behind....good lord. That was movie quality timing. Boxers worldwide must have gone crazy watching that.

                    Why? She makes her money from endorsements, not fights.

                      I also think her attitude seemed to be gauged on the audience reaction. When Holm got the best of an exchange, the audience would pop and Ronda would just charge and get stuck again. It's one thing to take a counter-jab, that's meant to back a person up. it's another to get tagged directly as you're moving forward.
                      This. Rousey couldn't defend against a straight left. Maybe back up and make her come to you...or grapple a bit? She just fell apart mentally.

                        First off I never understood UFC, just two so called people just trying to beat the living hell out of each other
                        but I suppose it's entertainment and they get paid enough and fans of the sport eat it up.

                        But never the less, it's most likely fixed like boxing, so the participants get as much out of it until there contracts
                        are up like fame, fortune and publicly and help me Rhonda Rousey was (is) no different. Just can't understand
                        why women want to do it?

                          She became too much like the female version of Brock Lesner.
