Every woman should want to have kids with Fedor. The alpha male of all time and the only man who can carry a pink Koeran dress and still not be ridiculed for it:D
Here's the thing: Ronda is beautiful. She is beautiful both on the inside and on the outside. And she is beautiful not only because of her lovely cheeks and her golden cascade of hair and her amazingly stunning smile and the way she blushes everytime she laughs. She is beautiful because she is honest. She is sincere. She has that no-bulshit approach to life, the universe, and everything. She has a lotta haters, but who the fuck cares? The technique she has displayed was simply utterly amazing. She DOMINATED that fight like we have never seen before in MMA. She completely OUTCLASSED Miesha Tate in every possible aspect. I don't know about you people, but as a martial artist, I watch MMA to learn. To improve myself as a person and as a martial artist. If I happen to find someone worth loving, like Rowdy Ronda Rousey, I WILL love them. And I WILL love them regardless of what they do or don't in their private lives. You can hate Ronda all you want, and that's fine. As far as I'm concerned, all of her fans (myself included) would go to hell and back for her. They are TRUE fans. They are REAL fans. We love Ronda for what she is. What you see is what you get, aye? And you can't be more real than Ronda. So, I think Ronda would agree with me when I say FUCK YOU, YOU BUNCH OF WHINY LITTLE BITCHES! _!_
My God I love you Krazy Lobster. I'm Rondas fan and you are 100 per cent correct. The ronda haters are either assholes or weirdos. A bunch of motherfuckers who have their own personal problems and are just taking out their frustrations on Ronda
Ronda will remain the champion for a long time. McMann won't be able to take her, if cyborg can make it to the ufc and pass a piss test I think Ronda will put cyborg in her place as well Love Ronda because she is real and doesn't put on a face, if she doesn't like you she won't act like she does, if she does like you she is a class act and speaks well of you like she did with Carmouche
TJ Huerd wow, you must know her really well to know all these things about her. Because people totally act natural in front of cameras. Yeah, she probably doesn't act different in her personal life. (*me throwing up cus of how stupid you are*)
***** Seriously, what's the deal with that? She's clearly stronger and more dominant than most women fighters, but someone is going to expose her one day.
***** did you watch the last fight, she could have knocked her out, but she wanted the arm bar. It is amusing to me how people talk smack and dont watch the actual fights. You tube is fun!
Her answers about the worry of breaking an arm, etc... is part of why she's successful in this sport. You can't worry about that stuff when both you and opponent are both in there after signing on the line to defeat each other. I had a hard time reaching that level; people are just different, and the closest I came to being in that mentality like Ronda's is when I did my best. It also proved to me I and likely others aren't always necessarily that far from having the physical gifts some pros have, but mentally some of us have longer to go to build/have that necessary "selfish" attitude in the competition. It's just the way it works... you can't expect to win at that or even amateur level, forever, being generous.
Ronda Rousey is a trail blazer champion who i admire and respect. She is not only a gifted fighter, she is brilliant not only in talent and ability but in her thinking, that is why she wins, and even if at some time she loses she will never quit, she will brush it off and keep on training and fighting...the boos are actually fuel that make her fight better so .....she deserves alot of credit for breaking barriers for girls and women .....i respect her hard work ethic and spirit, she is a true champion and role model....after her fighting career ends i know she will be used to encourage kids and women and men.....she is a champ now and forever....Go Ronda go.....
Paul Amand I don't listen to her words, I watch her behavior. Her behavior is trashy and obnoxious (flipping Tate the bird, refusing to shake her hand after the fight, picking a fight with Bryan Carraway, bashing Arianny Celeste, etc., etc., etc.) Actions speak louder than words.
Karyn really asked very good intelligent questions regards Ronda. Really tired of hearing about the Meisha-Ronda feud. Sick to death of it really. Time to move on to better topics and Karen did a great job, talking about important women's MMA questions in this interview.
I am seriously looking forward to Ronda vs McMann. This will be a match between the 2 most credentialed grapplers since Yoshida vs Gardner. Ronda has Olympic bronze, world silver, 3 golds, a silver, and a bronze at the pan ams in judo. Sara has an Olympic silver, a silver and 2 bronze at worlds, 2 golds a silver and a bronze at the pan ams in freestyle. Sara also has a gold medal in FILA no gi grappling and quite a few naga and or grapplers quest medals. Ronda also trains with Leo Frincu, Jr world champ in Greco. These ladies are 2 SERIOUS grapplers. Sara may not be as dynamic as Ronda but should be bigger and stronger with a rock solid mount.
I forgot about Alexis Vila vs. Joe Warren. They both are more decorated grapplers than Ronda & Sara. Warren a Greco world champ and world cup champ and Vila a 2x world champ in freestyle and an Olympic bronze.
She's the best in womens MMA. Cyborg is a steroid cheat, won't make it to 135. McMann won't win, not good enough on the ground. Holly Holm will get taken down and submitted. Nobody on the immediate horizon can beat her .....
damn any one whos even studied psych a little bit can tell the booing really got to her which im glad. The change in her voice and fact that she brought it up first thing are dead giveaways.
So many haters on these comments and who says all she can do is armbar? People didn't realize in Anderson Silva's prime that he had ground game but Chael Sonnen found out.
It refreshing to someone not be fake in an interview. I totally agree about knowing someone is only apologizing because it will make them look good when others are around but would never make a private sincere apology.
Rond is such a cutie,chill bad ass.Sick of hearing "be classier!" oh come the fuck on,how many men get told to be classier?People are just biased and purposely ignoring the whole picture whent hey hate on her,sure either you hate or love some people i get that but I rarely see a valid point against her,nothing is said against her that doesnt have a counter argument thats based more in truth.shes a bad ass,love her
Newman Rao that fight will never happen...cyborg will never see the inside of a UFC cage by refusing the drug testing...anyone that thinks she's not a "roid head" is delusional...
***** How did Rousey duck Cyborg? Cyborg can't even make weight (135 lbs) in order to fight Ronda, like ever, and that's coming from the doctors that examined her.
dont get why miesha was all pissed off after losing. if you win you win if you lose you lose there shouldnt be talking/hate after either unless it's a controversial win and the judges cheated you. rhonda a cool girl i dont know why people hate her. The girl plays pokemon and fights, which shows a child side to her
Because she started a whole bunch of drama with Ronda, clearly thinking she was gonna get in her head and make her beatable... but losing to her (again) just made it clear Ronda's the better fighter, which has her all bummed out knowing that even with the psychological attack she just isn't as good. The fact is, people like Tate who thrive on drama are always gonna be upset when they can't deliver on their own shit talking. It adds embarrassment to injury.
Hemsley, tate is a jealous ugly inside as well as outside piece of trashy shit. She was always trolling ronda the minute she heard about her. She's always been as jealous as fuck because unlike tate ronda is beautiful and was at the top for a long time. Ronda achieved MUCH more than her in her pathetic life and always will.
What she says about the iconic Ali pose and afterwards is right. This WOMAN IS AMAZING! It is a shame that most people don't understand the things that make her the GREAT fighter that she is. LONG LIVE THE REIGN OF ROUSEY!
3:50, that one other reporter tried to bait Rousey into a Mike Tyson trap in a way. By a Mike Tyson trap, I meant catch her starting to get too proud or arrogant after the Tate fight; or catch her contradicting past statements about never underestimating any and every opponent to come her way. I love that she's not taking that bait; and I love it more that she's staying consistent in how she still approaches opponents.
Why the hate for ronda?? Fat??cant punch?? , lol yeah she's curvey but thats all about taste, i think she's sexy likkle beast...and about she cant punch?? Lol she broke miesha's nose. Peace
Meisha's nose breaks in almost ALL of her fights... When it gets broken that often it doesn't take much to break it in other fights (use Frankie Edgar as an example). Whether the hit is strong or weak his nose can break easily.
Hopefully everyone who booed Rousey for not shaking Tate's hand after the end of that title fight no longer confuses maintaining personal honor for disrespect regarding all the past drama within seen and unseen matters regarding the Tate/Rousey feud.
why does she keep talking about that they boed her and then says she didnt care. if she didnt care that they boed her she wouldnt keep talking about it
Re watch the interview tard. The reporter to the left of the screen asks VERY specifically about the booing. Make sure you know what you are talking about if you plan on arguing a point.
As a "heel" Ronda is more in Chael Sonnen & Adrien Broner territory and no where near guys like Tyson and Ali who were both controversial recognized worldwide figures during their run. She's exaggerating her popularity way too much. Women's MMA has yet to sell on it's own
I love how rhonda winning a fight means everyone forgets about her attitude and immaturity. UFC fans are a joke. Shes a horrible human being but a great fighter, and as everyone knows being a great fighter is so much more important to character than being a decent person.
This has got to be the most stupid thing I have eever read. Dont think you know what everyone thinks. I have been chearing Rhonda the entire time. She speeks her mind and doesnt bullshit. Tate. Now theres a terrible humanbeing. She says and do what ever she will gain from. That is called a backstabber.
Yeah but most people haven't been cheering Ronda the entire time. Just because you are shallow doesn't mean the whole world is. Speaking your mind doesn't make you a decent person anymore than knowing when not to be a bitch makes you a bad one.
TheLydianRocks My point is that I wouldnt want a person that to me seems false in my life. Id rather have a no bullshitter. And that is how I try to sort my friends. What I reacted to in your comment was not that you were pro tate it was the way you said everybody is just supporting rousey because she won. I just dont like political correctness and false people And that is what tate seems like to me now that is what I call shallow. Have a good day.
Well not liking PC or false people doesn't mean you have to support people with even worse character traits. Rousey is arrogant and there is nothing more fake than a woman getting in a mans face and trying to tell him how to be a man knowing full well he would crush her. Did you even watch TUF? Shes a spoilt brat, and saying "Oh she'll kick your ass" is a childs way of looking at and judging peoples merit. People have their logic twisted in this sport, it does make me wonder about the mentality of the fan base.
Rowdy definitely showed a far more rounded game in this fight. She beat Miesha standing up and on the ground. She had Miesha close to submission multiple times before nailing the armbar. Miesha's a good fighter and she showed grit and put up a longer fight this time, but the final result was inevitable.
It was a great fight between Miesha and Rousey, and the only one thing I look forward to seeing with Mcmann vs Rousey is for Ronda to be more versatile with her stand up fighting. The arm bar is perfected, now we just need to see more punches thrown. Ronda is a power-house of a woman and we all know she has it in her to overcome any obstacle! Such a beautiful young lady to represent MMA womens fighting, and I look forward to another defeat! Go Ronda!!
I didn't like Ronda to start with but from watching interviews like this it becomes obvious that she has some real star quality and charisma. She's a powerful character and very intimidating. Kind of worrying knowing that she could beat the crap out of me. lol
Wow Ronda! You're so selfless and innocent. You really do act like a true champion. Our sport needs more women like you! You don't make me wanna strangle my cat at all! (I really hope my sarcasm gets through...)
Heres the thing: Ronda, fight Cyborg. Test yourself, we know your scared of losing now that you've publically stated that you're gonna "remain the champion retire undefeated". Stop all this talk & just do it. It doesn't have to be for the title, do a non title fight, make it a catch weight, whatever. Just fight her. Until YOU fight her, no one will never know who is the greatest in Womens MMA is....
***** YOU ARE ALL SMOKING FUCKING CRACK I SWEAR!!! Why are people saying Ronda needs to go fight cyborg?!?! HOW?!?! Ronda is the Champ in the only female division in the UFC Dana offered Cyborg a spot in the 135 division and she TURNED IT DOWN. She made 145 on roids she can easily hit 135 clean. Dana even offered to pay for Dolce to help her get to 135 in a healthy way. If cyborg wanted to fight Ronda she HAS to go to her ronda is the undefeated undisputed bantamweight champion. Ronda is not avoiding a fight with anyone she is the champ. Whoever is the #1 Contender is who she is gonna have to fight. If Cyborg was the #1 contender and Ronda refused to fight her thats a different story.
The TRT & steroids thing is a joke. You know how many fighters have been busted for "steroids"? Bigfoot Silva, Bonnar, L. Johnson, Marqurardt, etc... If they are clean when they test them before & after the fight, whats the big deal? You guys really think Brock Lesnar NEVER did steroids, lol Come on...
***** LOLZ whatever. Cyborg is a fighter @ 145.lbs. The UFC doesn't have a 145.lb division. Dana isn't making a 145.lb division anytime soon, so Cyborg left. Ronda has fought @ 154.lbs She can't fight Cyborg @ a catch weight? Nope. She'll never fight her no matter what the weight. She will NEVER do it because she knows she will get waxed.
What Rousey also said about Tate doing things to make her look good publicity-wise, both Tate and Caraway, makes sense to me. It's not something someone can learn to do, it's instinctive. From the footage I saw of Tate and Rousey's interactions on TUF 18, I know bullshit when I smell it, so to speak; and Tate does still hold a grudge against all the wrong people out of seeming jealousy toward Rousey's rise in the MMA ranks In Tate's position, if I had her feelings and attitude toward someone as skilled and proficient as Rousey, and I let those feelings blind the fact that Scott Coker made a decision to go ahead and put Rousey against Tate rather than Kaufmann beforehand, then I should have enough business sense to accept that over any personal animosity or fear or jealousy toward whom they oppose me. Professional MMA fighting is a business; Tate's paid to fight; and in her place, I'd shut up and fight, win or lose.
I don't see the bad sportsmanship in Ronda. She's a champion and keeps her competitive edge. A lot of what she said is true about being sincere in public vs. private.
Mark Ukkerd Calm the fuck down, did Rousey ever disrespected another opponent then Tate? No. There was only a rivalry between the two of them and both of them were trashy. Plus, McMann vs Rousey is an olympic duel. It's the wrestler against the judoka and it's going to be right in the same dates as the olympics. Please, find better arguments then just saying she's satan.
Not at all. Watch her other fights. She always shakes hands. She even had Liz Carmouche help her train her fighters on TUF. She merely dislikes Tate and feels that she was disrespected. That's all.
I don't think that people in higher weight classes bitching about people coming up to their weight class to fight them makes much sense. If Ronda walks at 150 and Cyborg walks at 170, how is that fair? BJ Penn has fought at light heavyweight before, so would it look if Jone Jones called him out?
Only true MMA fans know of Mcmann and Cummings , in my opinion with Rashad out this card is not worthy of PPV. However, I was planning on seeing the event at a local Sports Bar for free..
She wont fight cyborg because she knows she would lose.Everything else is an excuse. Ronda is very technical when it comes to her armbars and judo throws but really she is not a very well rounded fighter.Her striking is not up to snuff nor her jitsu. She reminds me of the first stars of mens mma. They were not very well rounded,basically one trick ponies. What they did they did very well but once someone figured out how to defend their trick then it was over. Gracie for example or even Liddel, rampage,tito, etc.I would think however that by now, women or not, mma has evolved to a point where they crosstrain specifically for it. So the talent levels would be much higher. The tuf finale with the females was a big dissapointment due to the lack of technical abilities. I could not help but think about mma in the early nineties and how much in large part the sheer athletic abilities got them through.Words are wind show me what you are made of or stfu.Comparing her to fedor is absurd btw lol. She is cute though. Sex sells so milk it while you can. I personally hate paying for a ppv with them on the ticket. Its like ordering a filet mignon and getting a shank. Give the ppv airtime to the people who have earned it instead of a sideshow like the kardashians. At least make it the damn undercard or something.
She proved at 169 that she definatly is growing and has more weapons than just the armbar. She was beating Meisha standing, beating her in the clinch, she even showed a variety of submissions she was going for when she was on the bottom. Hats off to Meisha putting up a hell of a fight but people need to remember Ronda is only getting better, she has only had like 9 fights or so period and she improves every fight. Cyborg needs to either move to 135 and have a chance in the UFC to bring her career back from the dead or stay at 145 and beat a division that doesn't really have any competition at all. She needs the fight more than Ronda cause there are alot of fights for Ronda at 135. Hate on her armbars all you want people but Ronda walks in the cage with a sign that says "I'm going to armbar you" and still no one has stopped it. That in itself is impressive.
***** Exactly, prime example, Rousimar Palhares and his kneebars. The holes that Ronda has in her game, she is filling them, everyone saw how much her striking has improved. You can't really say too much of anything critical about her. The only concern I see with her is and its showed in every fight, she does not like to get hit. But when he says "Well Rounded" theres not that many women fighters that are well rounded because its such a new division but its growing quick and with the straw weight division coming in.
It is what it is, there going to hate regardless and Ronda showed ALOT of tools her last fight, her striking, when she was on the bottom saw her working rubberguard and defending Meishas punches good, her judo on point as usual and she is only getting better. Btw, f'n love saying judo moves by their japanese names lol, just makes the move sound that much more bad ass lol like Tsurikomi goshi.
grahamhg HAHA. Yeah... I'd love to see her roll with BJJ black belts to put that to the test, I know many, MANY black belt women who would smoke her and don't even try to say you meant she could hang with men.
Some of you guys are just hypocrites... just talk shit on comments.. but y'all know Ronda Rousey is the best and forever will be the one to bring MMA UFC to a whole new level!
She is blunt but honest. Like come on, Miesha just wanna be the peoples favorite. Fighter wise, this was such a miss match. Ronda was like a cat playing with the mouse before it gets bored and just eats it.
I'm pretty sure Fedor prefers easy going, feminine woman. Ronda Rousey is pretty much the opposite of that. I'm not sure if any straight man wants a prickly, man-ish woman like her tbh.
you mean the cheater she/male steroid? rousey is in a different promotion, in a different class, steroid is old news, and irrelevant. if she wants a shot, DROP the wieght, piss CLEAN and come to the champ. the champ doesnt come to you
Cyborg needs to quit talking shit and agree to the testing terms if she wants to fight. but since she can't or wont it ain't gonna happen. which is why she is in a low lvl promotion with crappy testing standards. when she wants to get serious she will get her shit together. but I guess she is comfortable with beating the crap out of lesser fighters and making less money in a shit promotion.
LDN LONDON how am I totally wrong? is she not in a low lvl shitty promotion? uh yeah she is. she damn sure is not in the UFC which is the absolute top MMA promotion. it is also the best paid MMA promotion so yeah she is making less money. and does it have lesser testing standards? oh hell yeah! she was offered a deal by Dana which included stringent testing standards and she refused. she said she can't make weight yeah because she is still roiding! so where exactly am I wrong? please explain and provide some sources to back up your asertions that I am wrong. I am sure that I can find plenty of documentation to back up my claims.
dont think ronda can take a hit but her stand up definitely improved. her judo throws are quiet refreshing to watch. big fan of the airtime the throws give lol. cant wait to watch the judo vs wrestling showdown! am i the only person who thinks the ground game in the women's division is more exciting than the men's division?
her boxing improved but boxing is not a thing you can just pick up in short time, for it to become automatic, and for you to be disciplined with it, takes many years, her boxing is seriously pitifull everything else awesome
rwasta7007 im still shocked tate was trying to take rousey down the entire fight. i mean c'mon she got tossed around like a rag doll. never seen so many judo throws in 1 fight.
skysz86 i think she was getting exited about the fact she was past the first round, but i thought the same thing, ronda will lose with a good boxer with takedown defence
skysz86 Hey, no one thought Alan Belcher would take Palhares down but he did and dominated. To that end maybe it was a surprise tactic. Regardless Ronda was awesome.
The Ali stuff was a bit too much. People accept Alis gesture because he can get away with it, its funny when he does it. I love and crave ur touch ronda. Ur the best, pitty ur too way ahead of all the rest. Pure talent, hard work and beauty.
The talk about Cyborg I see below:She signed on with UFC.......without a 145 weight class. Why? Did she expect to not fight at 135 and hang around forever blaming Dana and Zuffa, like she did in interviews for not getting her fights? Then bitching about Rousey dodging her and not being willing to fight her at a different weight when she signed on in the same fucking company? This has turned into a huge not funny joke. Cyborg is a man, and so is her husband. She's more man than the transgender "woman" who got beat by a woman in that tournament, who came out after entering the tournament without telling anyone it was actually a trans. Fuck Cyborg. Get clean, hit 135 and then earn a shot at Rousey and the title if you want to say your the best. Fedor was a BAAAAAD man no doubt. He ended up getting beat by a second rate UFC fighter though, Verdum. That sucks. Cyborg needs to do this now, or stfu and go away.
Thx Hulk. It is bad enough the pressure on 2-0 and 1-1 new fighters to get in the cage with woMEN like Cyborg, or any top level athlete in the sport as it is. Peace.
@700rwhp-It is beneficial for male athletes to travel and compete in different organizations and in different countries. Especially training and competing at high levels in other disciplines as well, then graduating so to speak, to the higher ranks like Bellator, Pride(bought) and UFC of course. That isn't as true for the women though. They are better career wise, and financially to get into the UFC asap. Cyborg was there and could have made weight, according to her(allegedly)and Ortiz. She couldn't do it on drugs, or off them, if she's clean or not it seems, so who's ducking who? Early in her career, whether you know it or not, Rousey said she wasn't ready to step up to that level yet, to someone at Cyborgs level. Don't blame her. She's a nasty bitch, but it's irrelevant. Rousey took her shot and "shot" right past Cyborg. Good for her. Stay in Strikeforce and fight a cheating feman or go to the biggest organization for the biggest money? That's not a difficult choice. The way into UFC was at 135 not 145 and Rousey showed she could do it and has dominated. Look at Cyborgs bone structure for some evidence of what years of abuse has done to her and you can see why she can't.
That opening question was awful.... Why would you present a statement like a question, implying something is a particular way, in a sense putting words in her mouth... turned me off
That Fedor shit was getting a bit lame. Like a 5 year old school girl with an attraction to the teacher who taught her how to tie her shoes. The potato face posse is about to give me some thumbs down for that one I bet.
If your here just to hear Ronda talk about wanting to have babies with Fedor its starts around 23:48 .
Damn, Dana hates Fedor as it is, but now....:D
Every woman should want to have kids with Fedor. The alpha male of all time and the only man who can carry a pink Koeran dress and still not be ridiculed for it:D
Here's the thing: Ronda is beautiful. She is beautiful both on the inside and on the outside. And she is beautiful not only because of her lovely cheeks and her golden cascade of hair and her amazingly stunning smile and the way she blushes everytime she laughs.
She is beautiful because she is honest. She is sincere. She has that no-bulshit approach to life, the universe, and everything.
She has a lotta haters, but who the fuck cares? The technique she has displayed was simply utterly amazing. She DOMINATED that fight like we have never seen before in MMA. She completely OUTCLASSED Miesha Tate in every possible aspect.
I don't know about you people, but as a martial artist, I watch MMA to learn. To improve myself as a person and as a martial artist. If I happen to find someone worth loving, like Rowdy Ronda Rousey, I WILL love them. And I WILL love them regardless of what they do or don't in their private lives.
You can hate Ronda all you want, and that's fine. As far as I'm concerned, all of her fans (myself included) would go to hell and back for her. They are TRUE fans. They are REAL fans. We love Ronda for what she is. What you see is what you get, aye? And you can't be more real than Ronda.
So, I think Ronda would agree with me when I say FUCK YOU, YOU BUNCH OF WHINY LITTLE BITCHES! _!_
God, you're cringe.
My God I love you Krazy Lobster. I'm Rondas fan and you are 100 per cent correct. The ronda haters are either assholes or weirdos. A bunch of motherfuckers who have their own personal problems and are just taking out their frustrations on Ronda
She ever gets her striking to its full potential she's not gonna have a problem with anybody. She's a pitbull in the ring.
i love ronda rousey i hope she remains undefeated for ever
Ronda will remain the champion for a long time. McMann won't be able to take her, if cyborg can make it to the ufc and pass a piss test I think Ronda will put cyborg in her place as well Love Ronda because she is real and doesn't put on a face, if she doesn't like you she won't act like she does, if she does like you she is a class act and speaks well of you like she did with Carmouche
I love her, but I am more worried about McMann than Cat Z
TJ Huerd wow, you must know her really well to know all these things about her. Because people totally act natural in front of cameras. Yeah, she probably doesn't act different in her personal life. (*me throwing up cus of how stupid you are*)
I love how original your name is rusty, you must be real good friends with dale drennen to use his alias.
TJ Huerd you mean dale gribble...
So beautiful, talented, intelligent, and just freakin awesome!
***** Seriously, what's the deal with that? She's clearly stronger and more dominant than most women fighters, but someone is going to expose her one day.
***** did you watch the last fight, she could have knocked her out, but she wanted the arm bar. It is amusing to me how people talk smack and dont watch the actual fights. You tube is fun!
I hope my daughters grow up to be disrespectful cokeheads.
lol the joy of you tube
flyestsias sukka tube it
Her answers about the worry of breaking an arm, etc... is part of why she's successful in this sport. You can't worry about that stuff when both you and opponent are both in there after signing on the line to defeat each other. I had a hard time reaching that level; people are just different, and the closest I came to being in that mentality like Ronda's is when I did my best. It also proved to me I and likely others aren't always necessarily that far from having the physical gifts some pros have, but mentally some of us have longer to go to build/have that necessary "selfish" attitude in the competition. It's just the way it works... you can't expect to win at that or even amateur level, forever, being generous.
I love the way she described apologies. So on point.
Tate got fucking stomped. She probably won't ever fight for the title again.
ahahahahahaha u so mad u make dana look like ghandi
Oooooh I'm soooo scared lololol.
You're a sad, sad man Larry.
Ironically she choked out holly holm the very same girl who absolutely destroyed Ronda Rousey think about that karma is interesting
Ronda Rousey is a trail blazer champion who i admire and respect. She is not only a gifted fighter, she is brilliant not only in talent and ability but in her thinking, that is why she wins, and even if at some time she loses she will never quit, she will brush it off and keep on training and fighting...the boos are actually fuel that make her fight better so .....she deserves alot of credit for breaking barriers for girls and women .....i respect her hard work ethic and spirit, she is a true champion and role model....after her fighting career ends i know she will be used to encourage kids and women and men.....she is a champ now and forever....Go Ronda go.....
The more listen to Ronda the more I realize what a class act she is.
Paul Amand I don't listen to her words, I watch her behavior. Her behavior is trashy and obnoxious (flipping Tate the bird, refusing to shake her hand after the fight, picking a fight with Bryan Carraway, bashing Arianny Celeste, etc., etc., etc.) Actions speak louder than words.
Why would you say that?
Just because you do not consider some one classy does not mean they are trailer trash
Fair play
Karyn really asked very good intelligent questions regards Ronda. Really tired of hearing about the Meisha-Ronda feud. Sick to death of it really. Time to move on to better topics and Karen did a great job, talking about important women's MMA questions in this interview.
Her comments on heels making history is classic. She's right whether you like it or not.
Another video that shows the most beautiful feature this woman has is her brain.
I am seriously looking forward to Ronda vs McMann. This will be a match between the 2 most credentialed grapplers since Yoshida vs Gardner. Ronda has Olympic bronze, world silver, 3 golds, a silver, and a bronze at the pan ams in judo. Sara has an Olympic silver, a silver and 2 bronze at worlds, 2 golds a silver and a bronze at the pan ams in freestyle. Sara also has a gold medal in FILA no gi grappling and quite a few naga and or grapplers quest medals. Ronda also trains with Leo Frincu, Jr world champ in Greco. These ladies are 2 SERIOUS grapplers. Sara may not be as dynamic as Ronda but should be bigger and stronger with a rock solid mount.
I forgot about Alexis Vila vs. Joe Warren. They both are more decorated grapplers than Ronda & Sara. Warren a Greco world champ and world cup champ and Vila a 2x world champ in freestyle and an Olympic bronze.
She's the best in womens MMA. Cyborg is a steroid cheat, won't make it to 135. McMann won't win, not good enough on the ground. Holly Holm will get taken down and submitted. Nobody on the immediate horizon can beat her .....
Just imagine if she married Rowdy Roddy Piper!
She'd be Rowdy Ronda Rousey Piper!
That would be cool!
Enjoyable interview. Hope Ronda enjoyed it too.
damn any one whos even studied psych a little bit can tell the booing really got to her which im glad. The change in her voice and fact that she brought it up first thing are dead giveaways.
So many haters on these comments and who says all she can do is armbar? People didn't realize in Anderson Silva's prime that he had ground game but Chael Sonnen found out.
Rowdy Ronda is beautiful and one hell of a fighter, the complete package.
It refreshing to someone not be fake in an interview. I totally agree about knowing someone is only apologizing because it will make them look good when others are around but would never make a private sincere apology.
I found Ronda's approach to the Tate fight refreshing. She's a fighter. She's not there to give out hugs. Love her attitude...
Rond is such a cutie,chill bad ass.Sick of hearing "be classier!" oh come the fuck on,how many men get told to be classier?People are just biased and purposely ignoring the whole picture whent hey hate on her,sure either you hate or love some people i get that but I rarely see a valid point against her,nothing is said against her that doesnt have a counter argument thats based more in truth.shes a bad ass,love her
Get Rowdy to meet Cyborg at 140 or 145 :p
Newman Rao that fight will never happen...cyborg will never see the inside of a UFC cage by refusing the drug testing...anyone that thinks she's not a "roid head" is delusional...
wow you are gorgeous
this is because your also biased ;p
***** How did Rousey duck Cyborg? Cyborg can't even make weight (135 lbs) in order to fight Ronda, like ever, and that's coming from the doctors that examined her.
What an awesome interview!
I just love her so much
What a QT
I dream of her slapping a triangle on me. I have a total Ronda crush going on!!!
Ronda is one helluva credible athlete with integrity. What a sight for sore eyes. She thinks before she speaks and can hold her own during interviews.
dont get why miesha was all pissed off after losing. if you win you win if you lose you lose there shouldnt be talking/hate after either unless it's a controversial win and the judges cheated you. rhonda a cool girl i dont know why people hate her. The girl plays pokemon and fights, which shows a child side to her
Because she started a whole bunch of drama with Ronda, clearly thinking she was gonna get in her head and make her beatable... but losing to her (again) just made it clear Ronda's the better fighter, which has her all bummed out knowing that even with the psychological attack she just isn't as good. The fact is, people like Tate who thrive on drama are always gonna be upset when they can't deliver on their own shit talking. It adds embarrassment to injury.
Hemsley, tate is a jealous ugly inside as well as outside piece of trashy shit. She was always trolling ronda the minute she heard about her. She's always been as jealous as fuck because unlike tate ronda is beautiful and was at the top for a long time. Ronda achieved MUCH more than her in her pathetic life and always will.
I haven't paid attention to the UFC since about the time TUF 1 or 2 ended... just got bored. Ronda's bringing me back. Team Rousey 4 life.
What she says about the iconic Ali pose and afterwards is right. This WOMAN IS AMAZING! It is a shame that most people don't understand the things that make her the GREAT fighter that she is. LONG LIVE THE REIGN OF ROUSEY!
my wife and I are die-hard fans and will never boo miss Ronda! she is a true champion in every sense of the word !
3:50, that one other reporter tried to bait Rousey into a Mike Tyson trap in a way. By a Mike Tyson trap, I meant catch her starting to get too proud or arrogant after the Tate fight; or catch her contradicting past statements about never underestimating any and every opponent to come her way. I love that she's not taking that bait; and I love it more that she's staying consistent in how she still approaches opponents.
Thanks a lot for thos ITW footages, they are really cool.
Im from Maine and we love ronda no matter what.... we love u ronda not to many girls can say they have fans from maine....
23:43 is the Fedor line.
Why the hate for ronda?? Fat??cant punch?? , lol yeah she's curvey but thats all about taste, i think she's sexy likkle beast...and about she cant punch?? Lol she broke miesha's nose. Peace
She didn't break her nose, but I agree with the rest
Meisha's nose breaks in almost ALL of her fights... When it gets broken that often it doesn't take much to break it in other fights (use Frankie Edgar as an example). Whether the hit is strong or weak his nose can break easily.
I've met Ronda, she's the sweetest person you will ever meet
I also love how honest she is.
Bravo Ronda I have to say one of your better interviews by far.This will be a good victory for Ronda can't wait judo vs wrestling yeah!!
I'm so excited for the fight. We might get to see ronda's ground game from the bottom., who knows. VERY EXCITED!
"Hey Ronda, so how emotional were you in that fight? Ronda, tell us about your emotional state when fighting Miesha. Emotions".
SO glad I subscribed to you karyn fantastic content.
Great interview!
Am I the only person who still likes Ronda?
Not you alone, i still like her
Hopefully everyone who booed Rousey for not shaking Tate's hand after the end of that title fight no longer confuses maintaining personal honor for disrespect regarding all the past drama within seen and unseen matters regarding the Tate/Rousey feud.
How do u not ask about cyborg tweet or her former trainer making a arm bar defense video?
haha love Ronda, excited to watch her path to becoming a legend
Thank you Karyn!
why does she keep talking about that they boed her and then says she didnt care.
if she didnt care that they boed her she wouldnt keep talking about it
She was ASKED about the boos. What do you expect?
Mark Sherry "how good did it feel to finaly have it over" that was the fucking question. it had nothing to do with boing...
ps. youre a moron.
Re watch the interview tard. The reporter to the left of the screen asks VERY specifically about the booing. Make sure you know what you are talking about if you plan on arguing a point.
20:52
"you're a moron"? Really, dude? I think you need to get your facts straight, obviously.
As a "heel" Ronda is more in Chael Sonnen & Adrien Broner territory and no where near guys like Tyson and Ali who were both controversial recognized worldwide figures during their run. She's exaggerating her popularity way too much. Women's MMA has yet to sell on it's own
I love how rhonda winning a fight means everyone forgets about her attitude and immaturity. UFC fans are a joke. Shes a horrible human being but a great fighter, and as everyone knows being a great fighter is so much more important to character than being a decent person.
This has got to be the most stupid thing I have eever read. Dont think you know what everyone thinks. I have been chearing Rhonda the entire time. She speeks her mind and doesnt bullshit. Tate. Now theres a terrible humanbeing. She says and do what ever she will gain from. That is called a backstabber.
Yeah but most people haven't been cheering Ronda the entire time. Just because you are shallow doesn't mean the whole world is. Speaking your mind doesn't make you a decent person anymore than knowing when not to be a bitch makes you a bad one.
wow name calling. thats awesome
TheLydianRocks My point is that I wouldnt want a person that to me seems false in my life. Id rather have a no bullshitter. And that is how I try to sort my friends. What I reacted to in your comment was not that you were pro tate it was the way you said everybody is just supporting rousey because she won. I just dont like political correctness and false people And that is what tate seems like to me now that is what I call shallow. Have a good day.
Well not liking PC or false people doesn't mean you have to support people with even worse character traits. Rousey is arrogant and there is nothing more fake than a woman getting in a mans face and trying to tell him how to be a man knowing full well he would crush her. Did you even watch TUF? Shes a spoilt brat, and saying "Oh she'll kick your ass" is a childs way of looking at and judging peoples merit. People have their logic twisted in this sport, it does make me wonder about the mentality of the fan base.
ronda is very eloquent and well thought, funny....besides all the obvious...i just love her
I hated womans MMA till Ronda made me a believer, now theres JJ the Polish Mauler and many more, the skys the limit
Yes She Is A Inspiration
Can Not Wait for 170!
She's a good interview and has a personality. She also "gets it".
I think Ronda is so fine!
You haters need to back up off my girl this down talking her ain't gonna fly.
Ah yes, the woman who said that if a woman doesn't fight, then she's a "do nothing bitch." That's one hell of a role model.
Be a good little do nothing bitch, and go make me a sandwich.
***** Oh shit! Everybody run! We have an internet bad ass here!
Do you even know what a D.N.B is you ginger bearded bitch?!?
Rowdy definitely showed a far more rounded game in this fight. She beat Miesha standing up and on the ground. She had Miesha close to submission multiple times before nailing the armbar. Miesha's a good fighter and she showed grit and put up a longer fight this time, but the final result was inevitable.
I've never plussed so many on one video. Go Ronda!
I heard Ronda is going over to WWE for a while . That true?
It was a great fight between Miesha and Rousey, and the only one thing I look forward to seeing with Mcmann vs Rousey is for Ronda to be more versatile with her stand up fighting. The arm bar is perfected, now we just need to see more punches thrown. Ronda is a power-house of a woman and we all know she has it in her to overcome any obstacle! Such a beautiful young lady to represent MMA womens fighting, and I look forward to another defeat! Go Ronda!!
Ronda Rousey vs McMann flying armbar would be awesome!
Do that!
I didn't like Ronda to start with but from watching interviews like this it becomes obvious that she has some real star quality and charisma. She's a powerful character and very intimidating. Kind of worrying knowing that she could beat the crap out of me. lol
are you sure that she does'nt prefer women to men?
Wow Ronda! You're so selfless and innocent. You really do act like a true champion. Our sport needs more women like you! You don't make me wanna strangle my cat at all! (I really hope my sarcasm gets through...)
Ronda is a sexy beautiful strong woman, and first and foremost a stellar athlete and awesome fighter, keep banging Ronda!!!
Heres the thing: Ronda, fight Cyborg. Test yourself, we know your scared of losing now that you've publically stated that you're gonna "remain the champion retire undefeated". Stop all this talk & just do it. It doesn't have to be for the title, do a non title fight, make it a catch weight, whatever. Just fight her. Until YOU fight her, no one will never know who is the greatest in Womens MMA is....
***** YOU ARE ALL SMOKING FUCKING CRACK I SWEAR!!!
Why are people saying Ronda needs to go fight cyborg?!?! HOW?!?! Ronda is the Champ in the only female division in the UFC Dana offered Cyborg a spot in the 135 division and she TURNED IT DOWN. She made 145 on roids she can easily hit 135 clean. Dana even offered to pay for Dolce to help her get to 135 in a healthy way. If cyborg wanted to fight Ronda she HAS to go to her ronda is the undefeated undisputed bantamweight champion. Ronda is not avoiding a fight with anyone she is the champ. Whoever is the #1 Contender is who she is gonna have to fight. If Cyborg was the #1 contender and Ronda refused to fight her thats a different story.
Kevin frongner: Exactly
The TRT & steroids thing is a joke. You know how many fighters have been busted for "steroids"? Bigfoot Silva, Bonnar, L. Johnson, Marqurardt, etc... If they are clean when they test them before & after the fight, whats the big deal? You guys really think Brock Lesnar NEVER did steroids, lol Come on...
***** She knows she will lose against Cyborg. She will NEVER fight here.
***** LOLZ whatever. Cyborg is a fighter @ 145.lbs. The UFC doesn't have a 145.lb division. Dana isn't making a 145.lb division anytime soon, so Cyborg left. Ronda has fought @ 154.lbs She can't fight Cyborg @ a catch weight? Nope. She'll never fight her no matter what the weight. She will NEVER do it because she knows she will get waxed.
she won me back with fedor
Heat draws money, keep doing your thing.
She is so sweet
What Rousey also said about Tate doing things to make her look good publicity-wise, both Tate and Caraway, makes sense to me. It's not something someone can learn to do, it's instinctive.
From the footage I saw of Tate and Rousey's interactions on TUF 18, I know bullshit when I smell it, so to speak; and Tate does still hold a grudge against all the wrong people out of seeming jealousy toward Rousey's rise in the MMA ranks
In Tate's position, if I had her feelings and attitude toward someone as skilled and proficient as Rousey, and I let those feelings blind the fact that Scott Coker made a decision to go ahead and put Rousey against Tate rather than Kaufmann beforehand, then I should have enough business sense to accept that over any personal animosity or fear or jealousy toward whom they oppose me.
Professional MMA fighting is a business; Tate's paid to fight; and in her place, I'd shut up and fight, win or lose.
Hayer estaba viendo una serie de bomberos y crei verte
she's a beast
bad sportsmanship though...
She only disrepected Tate for arguable reasons.
I don't see the bad sportsmanship in Ronda. She's a champion and keeps her competitive edge. A lot of what she said is true about being sincere in public vs. private.
Mark Ukkerd Wow! Did you come up with that nursery rhyme ALLLLL by yourself? lol What you said...real classy. You sure you're not a Rousey fan?
Mark Ukkerd Calm the fuck down, did Rousey ever disrespected another opponent then Tate? No. There was only a rivalry between the two of them and both of them were trashy.
Plus, McMann vs Rousey is an olympic duel. It's the wrestler against the judoka and it's going to be right in the same dates as the olympics.
Please, find better arguments then just saying she's satan.
Not at all. Watch her other fights. She always shakes hands. She even had Liz Carmouche help her train her fighters on TUF. She merely dislikes Tate and feels that she was disrespected. That's all.
Facilities.....I'm pretty sure she meant faculties @ 3:59
Ronda looks up to her mom A LOT! :)
UFC 170 , first time in ages that a UFC card has been so bad that there is no chance whatsoever I'll be buying it.
I don't think that people in higher weight classes bitching about people coming up to their weight class to fight them makes much sense. If Ronda walks at 150 and Cyborg walks at 170, how is that fair? BJ Penn has fought at light heavyweight before, so would it look if Jone Jones called him out?
Liston isn't unconscious in that picture though.
Man, this "chick" is such an uncommonly thoughtful person.
Only true MMA fans know of Mcmann and Cummings , in my opinion with Rashad out this card is not worthy of PPV. However, I was planning on seeing the event at a local Sports Bar for free..
She wont fight cyborg because she knows she would lose.Everything else is an excuse. Ronda is very technical when it comes to her armbars and judo throws but really she is not a very well rounded fighter.Her striking is not up to snuff nor her jitsu. She reminds me of the first stars of mens mma. They were not very well rounded,basically one trick ponies. What they did they did very well but once someone figured out how to defend their trick then it was over. Gracie for example or even Liddel, rampage,tito, etc.I would think however that by now, women or not, mma has evolved to a point where they crosstrain specifically for it. So the talent levels would be much higher. The tuf finale with the females was a big dissapointment due to the lack of technical abilities. I could not help but think about mma in the early nineties and how much in large part the sheer athletic abilities got them through.Words are wind show me what you are made of or stfu.Comparing her to fedor is absurd btw lol. She is cute though. Sex sells so milk it while you can. I personally hate paying for a ppv with them on the ticket. Its like ordering a filet mignon and getting a shank. Give the ppv airtime to the people who have earned it instead of a sideshow like the kardashians. At least make it the damn undercard or something.
She proved at 169 that she definatly is growing and has more weapons than just the armbar. She was beating Meisha standing, beating her in the clinch, she even showed a variety of submissions she was going for when she was on the bottom. Hats off to Meisha putting up a hell of a fight but people need to remember Ronda is only getting better, she has only had like 9 fights or so period and she improves every fight. Cyborg needs to either move to 135 and have a chance in the UFC to bring her career back from the dead or stay at 145 and beat a division that doesn't really have any competition at all. She needs the fight more than Ronda cause there are alot of fights for Ronda at 135. Hate on her armbars all you want people but Ronda walks in the cage with a sign that says "I'm going to armbar you" and still no one has stopped it. That in itself is impressive.
***** Exactly, prime example, Rousimar Palhares and his kneebars. The holes that Ronda has in her game, she is filling them, everyone saw how much her striking has improved. You can't really say too much of anything critical about her. The only concern I see with her is and its showed in every fight, she does not like to get hit. But when he says "Well Rounded" theres not that many women fighters that are well rounded because its such a new division but its growing quick and with the straw weight division coming in.
It is what it is, there going to hate regardless and Ronda showed ALOT of tools her last fight, her striking, when she was on the bottom saw her working rubberguard and defending Meishas punches good, her judo on point as usual and she is only getting better. Btw, f'n love saying judo moves by their japanese names lol, just makes the move sound that much more bad ass lol like Tsurikomi goshi.
grahamhg HAHA. Yeah... I'd love to see her roll with BJJ black belts to put that to the test, I know many, MANY black belt women who would smoke her and don't even try to say you meant she could hang with men.
grahamhg Talita Nogueira would absolutely MANHANDLE Rousey
Some of you guys are just hypocrites... just talk shit on comments.. but y'all know Ronda Rousey is the best and forever will be the one to bring MMA UFC to a whole new level!
Ronda, if I change my name to "Fedor"....?
Lots of respect for her skills, I admit she's a badass champ, still not cool with the way she handles herself though.
Bros no one is going to remember the women's bathem weight division in a few years this shite is going to turn into fucking dust.
She is blunt but honest. Like come on, Miesha just wanna be the peoples favorite. Fighter wise, this was such a miss match. Ronda was like a cat playing with the mouse before it gets bored and just eats it.
I'm pretty sure Fedor prefers easy going, feminine woman. Ronda Rousey is pretty much the opposite of that. I'm not sure if any straight man wants a prickly, man-ish woman like her tbh.
Danna White needs to stop helping Ronda from avoiding Cris Cyborg !
you mean the cheater she/male steroid? rousey is in a different promotion, in a different class, steroid is old news, and irrelevant. if she wants a shot, DROP the wieght, piss CLEAN and come to the champ. the champ doesnt come to you
lol cris needs o get off the roids!
Cyborg needs to quit talking shit and agree to the testing terms if she wants to fight. but since she can't or wont it ain't gonna happen. which is why she is in a low lvl promotion with crappy testing standards. when she wants to get serious she will get her shit together. but I guess she is comfortable with beating the crap out of lesser fighters and making less money in a shit promotion.
flirtyguy34 Your totally wrong !
LDN LONDON how am I totally wrong? is she not in a low lvl shitty promotion? uh yeah she is. she damn sure is not in the UFC which is the absolute top MMA promotion. it is also the best paid MMA promotion so yeah she is making less money. and does it have lesser testing standards? oh hell yeah! she was offered a deal by Dana which included stringent testing standards and she refused. she said she can't make weight yeah because she is still roiding! so where exactly am I wrong? please explain and provide some sources to back up your asertions that I am wrong. I am sure that I can find plenty of documentation to back up my claims.
Miesha's Apology?
Bold, Brash, Brave, Brains, Braun & Beauty, Belliasima, Brava, Brava!!
if she'd keep her hands off her hair,,it isnt a beauty pageant its a interview Ronda.
dont think ronda can take a hit but her stand up definitely improved. her judo throws are quiet refreshing to watch. big fan of the airtime the throws give lol. cant wait to watch the judo vs wrestling showdown! am i the only person who thinks the ground game in the women's division is more exciting than the men's division?
her boxing improved but boxing is not a thing you can just pick up in short time, for it to become automatic, and for you to be disciplined with it, takes many years, her boxing is seriously pitifull everything else awesome
rwasta7007 im still shocked tate was trying to take rousey down the entire fight. i mean c'mon she got tossed around like a rag doll. never seen so many judo throws in 1 fight.
skysz86 i think she was getting exited about the fact she was past the first round, but i thought the same thing, ronda will lose with a good boxer with takedown defence
skysz86 Hey, no one thought Alan Belcher would take Palhares down but he did and dominated. To that end maybe it was a surprise tactic. Regardless Ronda was awesome.
belcher took palhares to the ground without getting his knee snapped? lol i've got to see that.
The Ali stuff was a bit too much. People accept Alis gesture because he can get away with it, its funny when he does it.
I love and crave ur touch ronda. Ur the best, pitty ur too way ahead of all the rest. Pure talent, hard work and beauty.
Rousey, I love you!!!!! Kick some major ass, and don't look back baby!!!!!!!!!!!
The talk about Cyborg I see below:She signed on with UFC.......without a 145 weight class. Why? Did she expect to not fight at 135 and hang around forever blaming Dana and Zuffa, like she did in interviews for not getting her fights? Then bitching about Rousey dodging her and not being willing to fight her at a different weight when she signed on in the same fucking company? This has turned into a huge not funny joke. Cyborg is a man, and so is her husband. She's more man than the transgender "woman" who got beat by a woman in that tournament, who came out after entering the tournament without telling anyone it was actually a trans. Fuck Cyborg. Get clean, hit 135 and then earn a shot at Rousey and the title if you want to say your the best. Fedor was a BAAAAAD man no doubt. He ended up getting beat by a second rate UFC fighter though, Verdum. That sucks. Cyborg needs to do this now, or stfu and go away.
notice no one responds to your logic because they're too stupid. What you said is 100% accurate and the GuyRoid nuthuggers know it.
Thx Hulk. It is bad enough the pressure on 2-0 and 1-1 new fighters to get in the cage with woMEN like Cyborg, or any top level athlete in the sport as it is. Peace.
@700rwhp-It is beneficial for male athletes to travel and compete in different organizations and in different countries. Especially training and competing at high levels in other disciplines as well, then graduating so to speak, to the higher ranks like Bellator, Pride(bought) and UFC of course. That isn't as true for the women though. They are better career wise, and financially to get into the UFC asap. Cyborg was there and could have made weight, according to her(allegedly)and Ortiz. She couldn't do it on drugs, or off them, if she's clean or not it seems, so who's ducking who? Early in her career, whether you know it or not, Rousey said she wasn't ready to step up to that level yet, to someone at Cyborgs level. Don't blame her. She's a nasty bitch, but it's irrelevant. Rousey took her shot and "shot" right past Cyborg. Good for her. Stay in Strikeforce and fight a cheating feman or go to the biggest organization for the biggest money? That's not a difficult choice. The way into UFC was at 135 not 145 and Rousey showed she could do it and has dominated. Look at Cyborgs bone structure for some evidence of what years of abuse has done to her and you can see why she can't.
the first time she talk about the booing nobody asked her about it just saying :32
That opening question was awful.... Why would you present a statement like a question, implying something is a particular way, in a sense putting words in her mouth... turned me off
That Fedor shit was getting a bit lame. Like a 5 year old school girl with an attraction to the teacher who taught her how to tie her shoes. The potato face posse is about to give me some thumbs down for that one I bet.
