In an MMA fight, would Ronda Rousey beat Floyd Mayweather?

Dana White thinks so....

UFC president Dana White, for one, isn't backing off his position: Of course, Mayweather would dominate Rousey in his own sport, White said, but put Mayweather in an octagon, and he's a fish out of water. Not only would Rousey win, but she'd win big.

"Listen I get it. It's hard for guys to wrap their brains around that one," White said in his UFC 173 pre-fight media scrum. "Ronda wouldn't beat him. She'd hurt him badly. She'd hurt him badly."

Obviously, this will never happen...and most likely Dana White is just trying to promote his sport. However, let's entertain this for a second. What would happen if If these two were to scrap tomorrow in an MMA sanction event?
 
Let's be real here. I have absolutely NO doubt in my mind that Ronda would straight WORK Mayweather in MMA. Once any MMA fighter get's somebody with no wrestling ability on the ground, it's a wrap.

She wouldn't even have to get a full mount, she would just arm bar Mayweather until something snaps.

How do you know Mayweather has NO wrestling ability though? Would it even get to that point? Mayweather would knock this woman out in 5 seconds flat :lol: :lol:

Plus id imagine there would be months in advance to train for this fight , right? All Money would have to do is train in some MMA fighting styles for a few months and he would probably be the superior MMA fighter. Were talking about a GIRL.

Mayweather grew up boxing in a boxing family. That dude doesn't wrestle. This is how it would go.

- Round starts
- Both fighters approach eachother
- Rousy goes for the takedown and gets it since Mayweather will have no takedown defense
- Rousy then easily submits Mayweather


Mayweather would do no better than us fighting either off his back, or trying to fight off a submission against Rousy.

Brotha how do you know Money will be going into this fight blind? NO takedown defense? None whatsoever? I can bring up a Youtube video and learn the basics in my basement. I would imagine Money would employ the best MMA trainer money can buy and would be going into the fight prepared.

How about Rousey goes for the take down and gets her face split in two by the fastest uppercut on planet earth. I think that scenario is more likely. Shes a GIRL. Stop.

Yeah, watching youtube videos will get you prepared to fight a professional MMA fighter.

:stoneface:

And stop discrediting her because she's a girl. She's a professional fighter, I don't care how fast Mayweather is, he's getting taken down and worked easy. The fight will be determined on one thing, can Mayweather stay off the ground and the keep the fight on their feet.

If you place both fighters RIGHT NOW in an octagon, with no further training, she wins easy.
 
I find it hysterical when people take these things so seriously

Dude said "I don't care how fast Mayweather is"......

6 posts in and the fortune tellers are already straight comedy.

:lol:

Did this dude say you can learn the basics in the basement? Hahahahahahahhaa. I wonder if judokas practice defending osoto garis in their basement with huge pillows or bags of sand. :rofl:



Refrain from speaking on subjects you have absolutely zero knowledge about.

So you're shaking your head at me because you took a ridiculous thread seriously?

OK.

We can't assume Floyd has no wrestling training ever. With the popularity of MMA today, I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't integrate MMA style training into his own routine.

It is tough though, I don't know. I mean they both could win? She COULD beat him. He COULD beat her. If they fought 7 times, I would probably go 7 games. whO KNOWS......
 
Even in an MMA fight tomorrow vs. Rousey, I'd have to think that Mayweather's overall speed would trump Rousey's lifetime of training. Just my .02
 
But another thing people fail to realize. There are plenty of MMA bouts that hardly go to the ground. They could just stand up the whole time because Floyd wants it that way. I mean boxing is part of MMA so just because it says, "an MMA fight" doesn't mean they are going to be doing Ju-Juitsu 100% of the bout.

Wait, so there aren't any Youtube channels dedicated to MMA training? I said THE BASICS. Which is true. You can learn the basics of just about anything via Youtube. Its a pretty cool site, you should check it out :lol:
 
you don't know who she is, or what she does, or how good she is in her art, yet "she would get destroyed."

Ignorant.

Its that simple . Ive never heard of her. That right there tells me all i need to know about whether or not she could beat one of the greatest fighters to ever live in what basically amounts to a street fight :lol:

you can't be serious with this dumb logic can you?
 
Ronda gets hit with a lot of clean shots in her fights. If it's one area in which she's still improving, it's her striking. Her bread and butter is getting someone either up against the cage or off-balance, then she judo slams the **** out of them.

There's a huge difference between getting punched in the face by Miesha Tate, and getting punched in the face by Floyd Mayweather. Just saying.

His shoulder roll ain't gonna save him from an armbar

She's an Olympian in Judo.

There are PLENTY of people you've never heard of in the worlds of Judo, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu etc. that are as elite in their field as Floyd is in his.
