davis' concern was probably that she wasnt gonna be able to take down a fresh kaufman, which is probably fair (davis is no td expert) and didnt want to eat more shots wading into clinch range. but im speculating here. weve had this discussion before re: caraway and i dont see anything that makes me think ronda could beat him more than 1 time out of 10. like it or not, for various reasons, the mens game is lightyears ahead of the womens... i would think that at 135, yes. cyborg did ragdoll amanda lucas (who is a lot heavier than her) at openweight at mundials, but also pulled gina into mount (twice!) by messing up clinch trips when they fought. cyborg at 135 is going to be weaker and that takes away one of her main advantages. |

With her striking and grappling skills,I think Alexis Davis would provide Rousey with her most serious test. |

Re: Rousey vs Kaufman: Official Discussion Thread.
Ronda has started training with Lucia Rijker, who I would imagine can hit harder than Cyborg. I guess Ronda and her team will find out in training camp. We'll have to weight until she actually gets hit by Cris to find out for ourselves...

Re: Rousey vs Kaufman: Official Discussion Thread.
Kaufman made an insulting statement about American fighters. Although I wanna see someone shut Rousey up, I will support her against Kaufman.

you honestly can't use the metric you do using akano to measure fighters, especially when mcmann and davis are very different types of fighters and were fighting different fights agains akano. i would back mcmann to absolutely shut down alexis davis if they fought, fwiw, and id be very surprised if u didnt do the same. and i would say the same for rousey - it wudnt be competitive. davis' grappling isnt high level and her stand up is pretty awful. by wmma standards this makes her an ok fighter, sure, but the majority of wmma fighters are unfortuantely objectively not very good. basically my point still stands - if alexis-freaking-davis can control you on the deck and drag you down, rousey rousey sure as hell can. |

Re: Rousey vs Kaufman: Official Discussion Thread.
I think that what you guys keep ignoring in this discussion is the fact that basically there is no woman with real knockout power in WMMA, and when I say real KO power I mean one punch or one kick and you go to sleep.
Not even Cyborg has ever showed that kind of explosiveness, and a one punch/kick KO power is right the only way to beat Ronda IMO, since you can't pretend to keep her stand-fighting more than 30 seconds per round. You eventually finish on the ground, whatever you try to do. Reason why I think that if she is ever going to be beaten, paradoxically it will happen at her own game on the ground (lets say McMann or Kayla Harrison or any other world class grappler). I agree that Alexis Davis would have been more of a threat for Ronda than Kaufmann, Kaufmann is just a perfect matchup for her, I mean Stewie is right, you can probably bet your house, even your mother on the final outcome. A more interesting wager would be if Kaufmann plays the hero like Miesha and refuses to tap quickly or if she like her elbow right the way it is...I guess she has clear in her mind the image of Miesha's elbow, so I'd say she's gonna tap INSTANTLY |
