I just realized how Holm's win made me the type of Fan I despise. The Mayweather Boxing Club reaction woke me up! Update:Floyd Mayweather Jr. extends offer to help Ronda Rousey with her boxing. WOW
I know if is fun to laugh at memes, make fun of Ronda after this fight since she talked so much trash, we all know why it feels good to see Holly win. Big Underdog, and seeing how her Hard Work and Dedication paid off, how humble she was compared to Ronda, and most of all, how everyone seems to love her, especially her team member's and coaches.
But I try not get involved in "Fighter Bashing" unless I feel as though someone is being wronged, Taking cheap shots at people, disrespectful etc..But as alway's, I forget that as a fan, these fighter's have to market the fights, sell themselves, and they get paid on how many people watch the fight, so they don't care what we think for the most part as long as we care.
to sum it up...Take a look at the Mayweather fight club video on You tube after Holm's victory. I expected all the fighter's to rip Ronda apart, but most were visibly angry that people loved her on Friday, and were trolling her and kicking her when down on Sunday..They knew her strikiing was poor, but even Floyd took the high road and made a statement along the lines of " I can't just learn to be an NBA player because I play everyday for a few years, and some coach is telling me I am the next Kobe Bryant..Something like that, lots of info going around..
Edmond had been saying Ronda has never lost a round in sparring, knocking out Pro Boxer's both men and Woman, multiple times, and when these girls called to volunteer free sparring or get names, they never heard calls back...I think Floyd's team needs to contact Rousey and tell her she is welcome to come work boxing with them, Wrestling with King Mo, and if given a year, they will help her beat Holly..This makes sense for Mayweather for obvious reasons, Dana, and makes the rematch that much better....Who understands a counter striker or game planning better than Floyd and his team????
I just want to get this off my chest, I have been laughing at the memes, and at the end of the day, what Rousey accomplished on Saturday was AMAZING. Biggest MMA fight was between 2 woman, on PPV, tons of money, and she was undefeated and just ran into a buzz saw...All the Real Fighter's at the toughest Boxing Gym, didn't want to talk about Floyd vs. Ronda, they wanted to say that it is only people who don't have the balls to step in a cage who are trolling her....
I hope Ronda is ok mentally, and has good people around her to help build her back up, learn new skills, and hopefully she realizes winning fights now and beating Holly makes you the most money and gives you the career after fighting that is best...I wish her the best, Holly could knock me out in the first exchange, same with Rousey. Rousey has to sell fights, not touching gloves is all part of her aura, bad reputation etc...How the hell does any fan know if she is a sore loser or bully etc...I apologize for the rant, I needed to get that off my chest, I became the idiot who was mocking her when she has accomplished more than 99.9% of all humans before her....Thanks Ronda for such an amazing night and great week of MMA talk. Didn't spell check, at work and in a rush, finally realized I feel guilty for being mean, not my style unless it is one specific fighter for my own reasons.....
