I watched the replay again and the punch that caught Ronda was a sneaky straight that she was out of position to roll with. It was a once in a lifetime punch and if I'm on Ronda's team I demand a rematch and set the record straight.

"Ronda No!! Pleeze pleeze... Thats it head movement Ronda clinch! Pleeze pleeze, nooooooo!!! (Armanian phrase) Noooooo!"
The problem with the theory that Ronda was caught with a lucky punch is that Ronda was out of position the entire time. She was always in Nunn's wheelhouse. Then she secured a hold on the cage while Nunns measured her for the kill shots. When she did make an effort to retaliate it was pure panic.
The proof of that panic is that when an untrained individual percieves a punch coming their way, instinctively they will cringe, closing the eyes to a degree...and straighten their arms. The body believes that it can find and push away the punch...even though logical thinking tells it that the punch is coming from an angle and will bypass the straight arms.
Ronda panicked. She never was in position to deal with any attack. it would be like fighting Tyson in his prime by staying just at the length of his extended punches.
