Coming to us LIVE from the City of Angels, Los Angeles, California, UFC 184 brings us Ronda Rousey vs. Cat Zingano. The fighting world has been waiting for this fight for months now. No one, and I mean no one, has even proven to reside on the same planet as Rousey after stepping in the octagon. Cat has proven her worth since joining the UFC. She has made ladies bleed like I have seen in the Women division of the UFC. She has a viciousness you really only see in one other fight, Ronda Rousey. Cat just looks mean and feel like she has something to prove because no matter what she does, unless she beats Rousey, it’s back to square one. Rousey isn’t taking this one lightly, well because, I don’t think her genes allow her to. I believe this will be an entertaining fight from start to finish, and one you won’t want to miss.

Cat Zingano #1 Contender 9-0

When you look at the fight and the different areas usually talked about in UFC articles, it’s tough to say that Zingano cant be considered a favorite in any of them. She does that have some serious skill when on the mat. I know her record and wins show that she knockout her opponents like we haven’t sen before, her mat game is top notch. She needs to stay in control though. Now lets be clear, if she isn’t controlling the time on the mat, things will get ugly, quick. I know it seems insane to think that this fight will want to take the fight to mat but its really the only place she stands a chance, again, while in control. She is going to need to stay within herself. We have all seen Rousey catch an armbar when least expected and that’ll happen again if she decides to stray from her fight plan. Zingano has a chance in this fight, and at nearly +700, could pay off handsomely for some.

Ronda Rousey – Champion – 10-0

What can you really say about Ronda Rousey that hasn’t already been said. Rousey, systematically will control this fight from start to finish. She in a recent interview said she’s healthier than ever and that it’ll be nice not fighting on one leg. So hey, every women in the UFC, be afraid, be very afraid. Not only has she never felt defeat, no one has even proven that they should have even been the cage with her. Her striking, grappling, takedown offense and defense, and mentality are all superior to anyone else the UFC women’s division quite possibly will ever see. The sports book don’t see this fight going any other way either. They have Rousey sitting at about (-1000) and I don’t see that line moving very much over the next few days. Typically betting on a (-1000) is a sketchy bet but in this situation, their are definitely worse things to place a wager on (if it’s legal of course). Rousey will be in control of this fight on her feet and on the mat, it’s just really up to her how long she wants to be on camera.

I really don’t see this fight going many other ways than a Rousey win. She will be able to control the fight from start to finish with no issues in-between. Mousey should be able to snag a submission with the first round or may second with out having taken to much damage. Cat will land a blow or two that will get the crowd all rowdy, but nothing that’ll change the fight in a significant way. Rousey will land an arm-bar to finish this fight, and it’ll happen quicker than we all hope.

Prediction: Ronda Rousey by Second Round Sub.
