    Ronda's leg movement is unreal in that clip, and compare that to Correia's which is non existent!!!
    This is done after the first clinch I think.
    They are different throws though, Ronda's is a harai goshi, while Correia's looks more like the hip toss you'd see wrestling, maybe a bad form o goshi from judo

    Spoiler: Rousey walks forward eats a few jabs, grabs Correia and throws her to the ground, slaps on a arm bar, wins fight, 45 seconds tops.

    Yeah two different throws. Ronda's looks more like Osoto Gari (or gake?) to me, she is loading in the direction she is moving and taking out that leg.

    Correia's throw is a koshi garuma

    Who do you guys think will win Shogun v Nogueira ?

    I don't think Shogun has ever lost more than two on the trot. But he is the poster boy for inconsistency.

    Looking on paper , Nogueira has had more success over the last few years. But Shogun has faced tougher opposition in most cases, but if memory serves me right he was soundly beaten in almost all the fights he has lost in the last couple years save the Henderson fight. (I could be wrong on that.)

    Going back if memory serves me correctly Shogun gave Gus a great fight, got caught being slopoy versus Sonnen, looked great against TeHuna, was doing great against Hendo in the second fight and almost had Hendo put away until Hendo hit him with his right hand of death. He was awful versus OSP. His recent record probably looks a little worse than it is but I think as long as he can let his hands go he should ko Nog.

    Yeah I think you're right, she does it with such force I thought it must be a hip throw. I remember her explaining it from a few years ago and always thought it was a nice little vid

    All these oshi's and goshi's confuse me, I'm just going to stick with hiptoss in future :pac:

    A lot of booing for Correia. Not surprising after her comments but from a Brazilian crowd it was unexpected.

    Can't wait for tomorrow night.

    Twas him surely, I thought fighters weighing in were only allowed a plus one but Edmond (Rondas main coach) was on stage too.

    Yeah he's been with her for almost 2 years now. They started working together prior to her 2nd fight with Tate in December 2013.

    I think I read before that they had been in contact previous to that on and off, but when she went in to train a session for Sonnen on TUF 17, Dolce was helping Chael out too and they became more friendly which strengthened her desire to work with him properly.

    Yeah she works with him. If he looks different it's because he's working on a bulking book at the minute. I met him last month and he looked huge.
    He spoke about Ronda a bit, he was saying that because she was under WADA rules in the Olympics, and the IJF for so long that he has always refused an IV in the UFC.

    Yeah its right as it will go to a 4th round if a draw after 3.

    Jeez Rhonda looks great at 135 in fairness.
    Bethe was saying ( forgive my translation as my Porteguese isn't perfect ) " YOU SEE THIS ARM, PLEASE DONT BREAK IT. THANK YOU "

    Is this Ronda one actually an animal, and worth staying up for, or is it just all hype?

    Worth stay up for is a matter of opinion. I'd say it's worth it, other would feel short changed with a quick fight.

    But just all hype? Not in a million years.

    I still can't understand the mentality of turning this card into a 7 fight main card, just to accommodate the f*cking tuf Brazil finals. Have them on the Prelims for the love of God. Gonna be up till all hours now.

    Will it not be better, as in we get more fights and less breaks in between? The main event will still be over and done with by 6am, no?

    been watching rhondas fights this week. why can't some fighter counter the hip throw and armbar? seems like she would be a busted flush without those.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,784 ✭✭✭froog


    i dunno, all her opponents seem to run straight at her and just start flailing. haven't seen much fight intelligence from any of them.

    Nah I don't think so. Normally for the ppv shows, as soon as one fight finishes they transition quite quickly into the next one, and I don't think ufc will cut short any of the video vignettes to be honest. Instead, right smack bang in the middle of the card is two fights with guys nobody has heard of, and most likely will probably never really hear of again.

    I've not been following TUF Brazil but the BW final looks interesting.

    One of the finalists has a 19-1 record with 12 subs. The other guy is 12-3 with 9 subs.

    The BT Sports broadcast is on until 7am as opposed to the usual 6am so it could be pretty late as in 6am by the time Ronda gets on.
