Rhonda Rousy introduced Fox NFL Sunday this morning.

No. To be honest, she can't beat Rousey. Rhonda got sloppy tonight and overpursued. Holm is a hell of a striker, but this fight never should have ended the way it did.

Rhonda needed to let Holm come to her, and not force a fight. Big mistake.

Why trade with her standing up the entire fight? Holm is a boxer. ...an actual good boxer. Was not very smart.
 
Someone should have told Holly.

Someone should have told Rhonda not to beat herself. She fought a stupid and sloppy fight.

And Holm did EXACTLY what she should have done to win. She fought a great fight. I doubt a rematch will go the same way.

I don't know, Ronda couldn't toss her easily. It's not like she has a great wrestling takedown to get it to the mat.

Sometime before the fight they had various stats and Holm had 100% take-down defense. What it came down to is they finally handpicked the wrong woman for Rousy to go against. Rhonda got exposed. It's not like it was a lucky shot. Holm controlled the fight.

No doubt about it... the fight was 100% Holm from the opener.

Rhonda had no strategy for this fight, or if she did, she did not execute it.

Holm used her length to keep Rhonda off balance, and Rousey marched right into the shooting gallery.

At some point a champ has to realize that you don't have to pursue. If you stand back and do nothing, and your opponent doesn't pursue... you are going to draw and you keep the title. Let the challenger push in, and that is not what Rousey did at all.

One thing holds true. Outside a select few, the champ is going to lose eventually. Some of the best fighters in history have lost and more than once.

yup...but the good thing about her getting beat is now we don't need to hear about how she would destroy Meywether.
