Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Still Open To Backing Rousey's Boxing Run

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Golden Boy Promotions President Oscar De La Hoya is still very willing to have his company work with former UFC champion Ronda Rousey - who a few weeks ago was entertaining the idea of entering the sport of boxing to chase a world title.

This past Saturday night in Australia, Rousey suffered her first career defeat when she was knocked out in two rounds by Holly Holm, who previously captured multiple titles as a boxer. Holm, who was regarded as one of the best female fighters when she competed, made a full-time switch to MMA in 2013.

Oscar has had bad luck all danm year. The rematch would probably get more ppv buys too which is good for Holm. Have they released the numbers yet?

Oh boy...Oscar just keeps on looking worse.

she got KO'd badly in her game, in a boxing ring she would get killed

ron rousey ate ones and two's through the fight. she could'nt defend herself because she did'nt know what to do. if she comes in a boxing ring she'll get beaten badly until its stopped.

seriously, she has worse defense than Brandon Rios and her punching technique and footwork are sloppy af. she wont survive one full round in pro boxing

Whats He Supposed To Say

Let me guess people wanted him to say that he made a huge mistake and he regrets his decision to put her on the cover??? LOL.....he would probably get criticized worse.

Come on.....did he make a mistake? Yes absolutely.....Was is it disrespectful to put her on the cover instead of other boxers?? Yes......

But it's not like he put her as the Co Main Event to Canelo vs Cotto.....

I love the UFC and combat sports but you can't tell me that putting Ronda Rousey on the cover of Ring Magazine is as bad as Dana White letting James Toney fight Randy Couture a few years back.....Just saying

Professionals see what I see. A fighter who fought with the worst gameplan possible. Styles make fights, and I have no doubt she beats Floyd (and pro fighters back me up so trolls cant change my mind). She will learn from this and become even better. Holms is bigger, lengthier than floyd, problems that floyd wouldn't pose to the stockier/harder hitting Rousey.

Floyd almost got KOd by a 40 year old Mosley for gods sake lol and one dimensional Maidana, imagine what Rousey would do to him. There is a good reason why he hasn't accepted the fight.

Holm has never been on the cover of the ring
Oscars transvestite ass better put Holm on the cover now
