There are, of course, plenty of lunkheads who will say, Andre SmithJersey“Yeah, talk to me when she can beat Chris Weidman or Daniel Cormier,” as if the fact that she’d lose to a male who was 50 or 70 pounds heavier than her means anything.

It’s clearly ridiculous, and it would be ridiculous even if we were talking about a 135-pound man instead of a 135-pound woman.

Rousey is not only dominant every time out, her body and her skills are improving, too. This is the sign of an athlete who is not content, who thinks of the bigger picture and understands the special nature of her skills.

Jones has this special gift, as well. Even though he’s never been nearly as dedicated to Rousey, he’s been just about as dominant. If Jones had the same attitude and work ethic as Rousey, it’s almost frightening to think of what he might do to those he fights.

But he doesn’t,http://ww... first round of the bout at the United Center. Is there anyone who believes there would have been any way possible that Eye would have survived Rousey’s finishing attempt to make it to the final bell?

Unlikely. Very, very unlikely.

When you assess Rousey against the greatest who’ve ever lived in her sport, she is more than competitive by just about any measure.

She’s probably the best grappler and the best[url=http://www.packersshopnfl.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_TY_MONTGOMERY_JERSEY.html]Ty MontgomeryJersey
athlete. Her striking isn’t as good as her grappling, but Silva’s grappling, for example, wasn’t nearly as good as his striking.

Since she’s in the middle of her dominance, it’s best to assess her against the most dominant eras of Emelianenko, Silva and Jones in their prime. Again, she comes out favorably by comparison.

She first fought for the [url=http://www.packersshopnfl.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_AARON_RODGERS_JERSEY.html]http:/... title in just her fifth pro fight against Tate on March 3, 2012. Rousey pointed out that she was still learning when he submitted Tate to an arm bar at 4:27 of the first round of that bout.

Including that fight, she’s gone 7-0 since with six first-round finishes and a third-round finish (of Tate) on Dec. 28, 2013.
