Holy shit, best UFC promo ever?

[SPX]

This is awesome. My only complaint is that it's so thoroughly one-sided.

Fun fact: Young Rousey is played by her little sister.

[Mr. IWS]

haha, good stuff

[Mr. IWS]

Holm in trouble.....

[Luke]

Jesus........why even put Holm in it at all?

She might be in the fight even less lol

I mean, thats not a UFC 193 promo. It would be fine just as a Rousey promo by itself. That's kind of rude toward Holm

[SPX]

I kind of agree. What I'm hoping is that they're going to do a separate promo for Holm to tell her side of the story.

But you can't deny the artfulness of it. And Jesus Christ Rousey's sister does a good job. Her facial expressions are great and she looks just like a younger version of Ronda. I have to say, watching that I was like, "Here's a star in the making."

Here's the full promo with Holm included. Shit is next level. I've watched it like 5 times.

[SPX]

Nice. Glad to see there's one out there that really includes Holm. Really well-done. Like you say, next level compared to what they usually do.

If I have any sort of complaint or concern, is that's even with it telling us who is who I could see some people getting two young blonde girls confused, especially casual fans.

[Svino]

Yeah, that's a well-done promo. Probably about 2 minutes longer than the fight it's promoting, but what can you do?

Whoops. Crow-eating time for me. I didn't see that coming at all.

Interesting Holm-Rousey analysis vid (posted before the fight): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-L_G...ature=youtu.be

I think we'll also find that something was seriously off with Rousey's camp behind the scenes. You had her mother's criticism of her coach, Rousey's odd behavior at the weigh-ins, her announcement that she'd be taking a break afterwards...

[Mr. IWS]

I was surprised at the reaction of most people after she lost. Seemed like everyone was glad to see her lose, sort of an "AH HA! YOU LOST!!" sort of thing.

I kind of liked watching her destroy everyone.

I think it's partly that she has become almost insufferable in the past year or so, and partly because people like dumping on you when you lose.

Also, everyone on the internet called this beforehand. Every single person knew Rousey would lose this fight if you look on forums.

However, apparently a lot of money did come in on Holm the day of the fight. She went from ~+1000 down to ~+500 on some books the day of the fight.

Click the odds and look at the curves. Pretty interesting.

I was watching the line drop and truth be told, If I was home about an hour earlier, I would have bet on Rousey.
