As motivated as she is, I dont see Rousey winning this one. That fight with Holms really exposed Rousey and you can bet Nunes will emulate the same beat down

Despite the loss Rousey is still the best fighter in the 135-pound division, she got stupid and cocky with Holly and paid the price trying to stand up with her. can't see her making this mistake again.

Rousey took a long time to come back for two reasons.

1 - to get over her devastating loss
2 - to strengthen her weakness

I have $200.00 on Rousey and fully expect to profit a tidy $170.00 betting the favorite strait up. I'm watching the odds on 365 and might bet another $100.00 for a first round parlay.

Edit - Odds were too good to pass up, decided to give Nunes some credit and have her lasting till the 3rd round, bet $50.00 on Rousey winning in the 3rd and it pays a cool $850.00

She was pretty much out of her feet from the first clean shot.

She's done. Retire, make movies and maybe WWE? Just completely outclassed.

I missed it, cliff notes? Sounds like Nunes tee'd off on her and connected with every single punch, was it a ref stoppage?

Yeah Ronda's next fight will definitely be against Stephanie McMahon. But $3 million minimum for 48 seconds is a pretty nice parting gift.

40 seconds of punching to the head, ref saved her life.

Ronda should have had some respect for herself and quit ages ago.

She'll need to learn how to act first for either of those. A couple projects she did during her time out from MMA the past year have either been put on hold or flat out cancelled because of her alleged poor acting.. and I mean I doubt these people expected much.

Stephanie McMahon and the WWE seem to like her but she'd have to be used very sparingly and exactly right.

Ages ago? She's only lost 2 fights. I can see thinking the Holm fight was a fluke, but unless she gets new coaches, she's been exposed.

Make her the female Brock Lesnar, give her Heyman as a mouth piece and let her destroy people

Not surprised, but still kind if weird to see someone so unstoppable such a short time ago just run full on into a brick wall.

I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it.

The entire fight will be a .gif file soon I have no doubt.

They come out and Rousey eats a jab and a hard right which wobbled her.

Then she got drilled a few times but stumbled backwards across the octagon only to eat 7 un answered before a good ref stoppage.

The entire venue went quiet in shock it seemed.

Nunez has an odd physical muscular development in her back and shoulders that seems to be developed solely for throwing bombs. Rousey ate a few.

For the old timers this was like watching Apollo Creed vs Ivan Drago

Hope we never have to see Cruz in a championship fight again. So boring and he comes across as such a major creep.

Dillashaw vs Garbgrant is the obvious next fight, lots of storylines there.
