Ann Wolfe vs Ronda Rousey

Post by edsnowden »

Both in their prime. Limited MMA match - stand up after 15 seconds.

Stand up after 15 seconds?

Meaning that even if Ronda takes her down, she has to stand up right after because you just really want the Boxer to win?

I'm not sure Ann couldn't just beat her anyway. Hell she has a great deal of size on her. Bout wouldn't have even been sanctioned due to the size differential.

With all the physical advantages Ann already has. Why do you need to give her more by taking away Ronda's only chance?

Rousey would submit her, Wolfe has no other background than boxing does he?

That's why I made it 15 second modified ground. Like Bean's match vs Wesley Cabbage which was awesome.

Didn't take into account size difference. Does UFC have female heavies?

I mean that girl "The Lioness" just got in there, and beat the sh*t out of her with stand up punching did she not?

Ann Wolfe is surely a better striker than that girl. She's probably 6 inches taller than that, and 20 or 30 pounds bigger than that.

You made it a fight where the Boxer has every advantage. You made it pointless.

You might as well make it a Boxing match.

And to answer your question. I haven't seen the UFC present any Women fighters larger than Featherweight.

There'd be no money in it. People don't want to see Fat Women fight. In Boxing's Women's Heavyweight division. They're all fat, and other than the 6'8 Vonda Ward who got knocked into a coma by Ann Wolfe, I couldn't name you any of them.

I figured with no ground game Wolfe was at a disadvantage. They did the same thing with Cabbage vs the Bean. Great match, BTW.

Cabbage was mostly a stand up striker kinda fighter anyway wasn't he?

You think the Boxer is better off on the ground than the Judo girl?

Why has the forum suddenly been overrun with crazy pointless threads? It’s like it’s been invaded by a bunch of teenagers.

Yeah Cabbage was an automatic to win on the ground so they had to limit the time. Same with Rousey. Give them time, just not unlimited.

Ok maybe it's a dumb match. Maybe it means to be Nunes or Holm.

Yes, unlimited. If you're not gonna let the girl who's main skill is her Judo have the fight on the ground, why have the fight at all?

This is the equivalent of putting Michael Jordan in a HomeRun Derby against Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa, Barry Bonds and Ken Griffey Jr., and acting as if that's fair.

It's totally different vs an actual mma fighter, you have to watch out for kicks, knees, elbows, and the take down threat, which throws the entire standup game off. Rousey was an olympic medalist in judo and coulda taken ann down

plus i think the loss to holm ruined rousey

I don't think these two could weigh the same if they tried.

Not unless Ronda just got fat as hell.

Ronda vs Cecilia Braekhus or Lucia Rijker or something would make more sense.

If 1 loss can ruin you, you were never much of a fighter to begin with.

Mentally, no. Rousey was an all or nothing fighter, she either felt she was unbeatable or was mentally trashed

but i this match assumes them at their peaks, and wolfe has absolutely f@ck all mma experience. an olympic judo medalist will have plenty of skills in the bag to take down someone even if that person is bigger. wolfe would have no idea what to do once down either.

Ronda was big because she was a pioneer. Not well rounded but she has a historical place in the sport. For awhile she was feared.
