Could Ronda Rousey beat Holly Holm in a rematch?

I was shocked to see Ronda lose to Holly, so I was wondering if she could take her in a rematch.

    Yes Ronda can beat Holly. Ronda clearly lost this fight. She did hurt Holly a few times in the fight. Holly was keeping her distance as a strategy and sometimes she ran to keep her distance because she was hurt and didn't want to get caught. That gave her time to regroup and go back to the plan. Ronda never does that. She only comes forward. That is the thing about her the bothers me. I have posted many times that Ronda does not protect herself in fights. She leaves herself wide open. It kind of makes me wonder is she was believing what others were saying about her that she was invincible or that she is the baddest woman on the planet.

    If they fought again after the mandatory medical leave I think Ronda will beat her. This could set up and even bigger pay day with a 3rd fight to break the tie.

    Remember you heard it it first.....lol

  • Ronda Rousey stands a much better chance if she fights her fight and not Holly Holm's Fight. Ronda needed to use her Judo Skills as opposed to trying to go toe to toe with Holly Holm.

    well i think she COULD if she had more training and experience in the type of martial arts that

    Holly holms had. Obviously these two fighters had two totally different backgrounds in fighting. so if Ronda had the same experience in Hollys background, I'm sure she could. However, from what i saw, Holly was efficient and fast ASF!

    It's possible, but a lot of things have to change. She needs to find a new camp, new coach (he called the first round beautiful lol), and a completely different strategy. There were a few grappling exchanges that didn't go Ronda's way though, and that's her only way of winning. I'm not sure if she could change enough for a quick turnaround, but maybe after a few fights.

    There's race horses and buggy teams.

    Ronda needs a harness and feed bag.

    I believe so. This is her first time losing a match if they did a rematch then she probeley knows what to except from Holly so she possibly would fight her differently then the last time

    Not on top she won't, she has to take the fight to the ground and keep it there. If she goes in with the same game plan that St . Pierre had against Diaz, she would destroy Holm. I still think Cyborg would whip them both!

    Of course she could, anything is possible. She first she needs to learn not to underestimate an opponent and have respect for their skills. Rousey didn't just lose, she got her a** kicked. She had it coming. I hope she learned her lesson.

    I'm sure they could both beat one another. It's just going to depend on who shows up with the strategical, physical, mental or emotional edge.

    Maybe, but no one will remove that super defeat of hers. I like her but at the same time I want to ask, where are all those who asked if she should fight a man, mayweather, cause she was invincible and no one could defeat her.
