Ronda must be salty about how the Holm/Harrison fight went

Harrison has a legit MMA team and coach behind her. I haven't followed her MMA career, but judging by her highlight reel, they brought her up through the ranks.

Ronda had a fraud of an MMA coach, fought a bunch of soccer moms until getting her jaw broken and had to eat through a straw for 8 months.
 
Ronda fought a much better version of holly. Holly is about to be 43 years old, way past her prime and just washed up now. I’m no Ronda fan but it’s unfair to compare both fights

But had she actively tried to grapple Ronda back then there's an incredibly high likelyhood of her being subbed. Ronda was doing it to everyone who would engage in grappling her. Think of how confident Tate and Zingano were going into their fights.
 
Well, Ronda is a half-tard that chose a comedy coach like Edmundo because she was terrified of looking dumb and slow under a real coach trying to teach her new stuff. Kayla, apparently, is willing to be the noob and fix her errors with proper coaching.

Different fights as well. Prime Holly vs a Ronda that should have been exposed a fight or two earlier. Stray Cat Zingano should have been the one to beat Ronda, but she chose the most braindead strategy that played into Ronda's strength. Plus, Zingano was basically mentally/emotionally ill to the point that she shouldn't have been fighting. If Betch had more athletic talent and doubled down on boxing training, she could have beat Ronda in the phone booth.

Kayla is still in her prime, mentally healthy, and not quasi-retarded. She also is willing to follow a smart gameplan.

Prime Kayla is basically prime Ronda with another 10 pounds of muscle and 20 extra IQ points.
 
She was the right person at the right time, but nothing more. She would not be top 3 today.

This plus Kayla actually has good wrestling, with Ronda as long as you could avoid the clinch you weren’t in much danger of being taken down.
 
Ronda’s takedown got stuffed, she got controlled in the clinch, tossed around trying to clinch and Holm took her down. Ronda ran into resistance in the same situations Kayla ran Holm over. Ronda physically had issues with Holm and Kayla ran her over. Looking at Kayla and Ronda it’s clear who is more physical. That being said sure Holm is older now. But honestly Kayla probably in her current form grounds and pounds that Holm also.
 
Without salt GOATS would starve.

True.

I wonder if she's happy there's another Judo player in the game or does she feel it takes her shine away.

I dont think its wrong for her to feel some kinda way about it. Used to be your spot.

Well yeah Kayla is obvs much bigger and stronger than Ronda...but also Holly fought dumb in this fight and Kayla was also better in the standup than Ronda. It might have been a tougher fight if Holly was younger and moved her feet, used angles etc.

Yeah, Ronda said her knees were messed up from Judo and she couldnt shoot for takedowns like that.
