I'm guessing they're going to make the Cyborg fight for UFC 200 next July

Ronda was going to destroy whoever she fought at 135 anyway and you're right, she could walk through Cyborg too
I was thinking the Cyborg fight would happen at UFC 200 but I think UFC may try to delay it as long as they can. They may do a 3rd Tate fight or try to persuade Carano to comeback before making the fight. Just because Rousey has been saying that her perfect scenario would be to have Cyborg as her retirement fight.

Cyborg just needs to agree to fight at 135 lbs, then show up at the weigh-ins weighing 140-145 lbs and let them take the % of her purse and make it a catchweight. I don't think UFC would be bold enough to cancel the fight the day before the ppv. 
 
I wouldn't be surprised with whatever happens with Rousey after they put Holm in there

UFC 200 will be LIT regardless. I was thinking the other day I hope they have a title fight in every division

Gina struggled to make 145 a couple times, and hasn't fought in years.

If I was the head of the commission, I wouldn't even sanction that fight.

Gina was :smokin doe

Rousey said she was willing to fight Gina at 145 lbs or whatever weight she wanted cause Gina was a "pioneer".

But thank god she has "scumbag" hollywood lawyers that wanted a lot of money for her to fight or we'd be seeing her get destroyed by Rousey.

I'll give it to Gina, Cyborg was sweating wildfire in their match and Gina was right there wit him.

Only if she had better ground skill, Cyborg got outta top mount just by rolling around a lil :{

at this point, i'd be more interested in a catchweight fight between ronda and joanna jedrzejczyk than anything else.
 
Joanna got her hands full in her next fight with a 115 pounder

Make it a stand up fight only like they used to do in Pride.
lol that would be a dope fight. i think joanna would give ronda the business in a stand up only fight. ronda looks vastly improved hitting the pads, but when shes in the octagon, she gets wild and reckless. joanna is measured, calculated and very, very technical.

Rousey's head movement is nonexistent and she's under the impression that she has to block punches with her face. 
 
I been telling people that honda's standup defense is to get hit but most are drinking her nasty, rotten kool aid and won't listen to me. rogan and goldberg were talking about how Tate has power in her punches now. In their previous fights Tate was landing punches on her so I want to know if she would drop her now.

I think most people admit that her standup is sub standard but nobody is testing her chin, Tate doesn't have any power at all to do that

Ronda can basically walk through any 135er's punches, although I'd like to see Cat again

Thats a dumb thing to say, nobody has an invincible chin. If she doesn't tighten up her defense and rushes holm like that she could get clipped cuz holm has the capability of finding a small opening in the boxing range.

I expect her to wash her but anyone rushing in like ronda always does doesn't have to get hit with the biggest shot. Precision coupled with the fact that she's moving forward can equal just that

Calm down lol, I never said she's invincible. I said nobody at 135 is going to threaten her chin. Tate gave her her best shot and Rousey ran through it

Holm definitely is the best boxer she'll face but she's going to get taken down within moments. There will be limited stand up

Holms don't want have knock out power. She's a point fighter like Mayweather.

Cyborg is the only interesting fight for Rhonda. The competition just isn't there at the moment.

Juliana Pena could be another opponent they throw at Rhonda. But just like Holly, she's not ready for a main event.
