    She is too fat and slow and she can't take a punch and Roach can't change that. She was the best woman in her weight class in MMA for a short time. She won her fights quickly and easily with her arm bar submission hold. She became vastly overrated and thought to be unbeatable. Since then women MMA fighters have caught up with her and the women who can wrestle and punch have past her by. She is nothing special anymore and just got beat in 48 seconds by a girl who punched her lights out quickly and easily. White no longer talks about her beating Mayweather because he would KO her with the first punch he threw. Rousey is a master at making really mean faces. Her days as a champion MMA fighter are gone.

      Stick a fork on the arrogant ****, she is done

      She supposedly spent an entire year working on her striking game and defense, and she still managed to look like some guy who has never boxed a single day of his life

      rousey looks like a good looking bull dyke...which is a smidgen below a regular looking woman...



      gina carano at least was actually naturally beautiful.
      She has no future in hollywood

      She's not beautiful and has no charisma, her chances to land roles in movies were largely associated with her ¨badass female¨ persona, and now that she's become the buttclown of internet jokes, that aura is gone.

      She'll quietly fade into irrelevance and will be remembered as the female Royce Gracie of MMA, a pioneer that was dominant for a while, but was unable to evolve as the competition evolved

        Pacquiao was already embedded to his style - however, Roach definitely did refine him A LOT.

        He gave him a right-hook.

        And taught him how tp pivot off the 3, and set up the 2-3. BOOM, pivot again and reset.

                Roach has ventured into MMA. He worked on Andrei Arlovski's boxing. Arlovski did not improve, and was KO'd in like 20 seconds, by boxing strikes, in his first bout after training with Roach.

                  nope completely wrong person to teach her as she has no defense and roach works best with offense minded fighters. So what he will do with rhonda is amp her up into a offensive fighter which will leave her much more open, and with that she will never be able to evolve into a fighter that will be able to beat Nunes. She will become a great fighter again and be able to beat most all other females but she wont be able to beat Nunes. But shes is teh MMA victor ortiz dont think anyone can help her.

                    Rousey, however, is a naturally, classically pretty woman, and is certainly out of your league.


                    Agreed man, Carano is the bomb.

                    And I second your point about Rousey - the bloke claiming she ain't **** is way off base. She became a legit sex symbol.

                    I am happy you bought some Gina Carano to my day.

                      No. She's in a place where the more striking she learns the worse she will get. Clear that it isn't in her blood: no sense of range, no instinct, no punch resistance.

                      Learning more would encourage her to engage more. She is one trick pony as such she is better off focusing on making that trick work.
