Re: UFC 168: Weidman Vs. Silva 2 | Rousey Vs. Tate 2
Some people will puff themselves up and say you should root for the American. Do you know who really is American?
Silva is just as American as is Weidman. I know that you intend to mean when you say American as it being equal to US citizen, but if you are from Latin American and come from the continent of South America, you can say you are American. Beyond that are other terms people are unaware of: Like true/pure Americans.

I respected him enough already, considering he was doing his job, and winning the fight regardless of what Anderson was doing in there, acting like an idiot, etc. But that really showed he knows what hes doing when it comes to nearly every aspect in the octagon.

anyways weidman was very impressive in that fight and he's a terrific star, if only he could be a little more humble after the fight
Even after beating Silva I doubt many people even know who he is....

Just so that the person they were routing for would look better. Very human thing to do, and everyone does it. But the reality is that unfortunate for Weidman, a lot of people are rightly going to wonder what would have happened if he didn't get that hit because of Silva playing around, or what if Silva wouldn't have had a freak breakage of the leg. We've seen Silva many times getting his ass kicked, taking hits, only to win the fight. The same for other fighters. And it's just low character, which everybody has, not to look at things objectively in order for you to be right.
To me, this is Silva's bad judgement two fights in a row.
If these for some reason are astericks wins for Weidman, the same astericks should apply to Silva's wins in Sonnen fights.
Two times in a row, that is decisive to me.

Re: UFC 168: Weidman Vs. Silva 2 | Rousey Vs. Tate 2
well, been wanting rousey vs. mcmann for a while now. i guess they're kinda friends?
rousey may still be stronger in that bout but it won't be my much. mcmann obv has an olympic background in wrestling and she has broad shoulders, strong hips and good balance. rousey will surely get some judo throws in there but it won't be as easy and mcmann has more of a chance of reversing position.
still would likely have to favor rousey but i'm going for sara all the way. if ronda bulldozes through her, i really don't see any threat to her for a while. any future fighter would be a major underdog. sara's the only fighter so far that can seriously negate her strengths.

i think holly holm, properly prepared, could give rousey a tremendous test. could give her the beating of her life, even.
same with cyborg. she is so beastly strong and explosive that i'm not sure ronda's chain-judo technique would work very well against her.
of course, there's the matter of the ten pounds...

damn son, almost forgot about holm. she's improved but idk if she's ready for rousey yet. she has KO power but can she prevent rousey from closing in and getting the clinch? if that fight goes to the ground, it's rousey all the way.
holm will have to lower her strike level and not lead so much with her legs. definitely an interesting fight though as she can vary up her strikes.
shit, at this point, let's not count out zingano though i can't see her working the same kind of clinch to get her knees going. that's the main reason i see rousey just going through her.

if she can stay on the outside she can certainly pick rousey to shreds. main points i see her needing to train would be lyoto machida-style movement, jon jones-style front kicks to the knee, and what to do when she gets grabbed.
i mean, tate showed that with proper drilling, it's possible to escape a high percentage of rousey's armbar attempts. that gives me some hope for the other women.
it's going to take a physical specimen, in any case. and i've read an article or two about how judoka tend to be stronger and more athletically gifted than BJJ folks.
if dana wasn't such a pinhead, he'd start a 145 division, get cyborg and some of the invicta women in, and let an in-house rivalry develop between ronda and cris. this tying it all to just one person seems very short-sighted, especially since rousey has talked about retiring in a couple years.
