Ronda Rousey

Women's MMA is so poor in talent that you can't give Rousey too much credit. It's like watching children.

I think Holm is more admirable in that she is the most accomplished female boxer in the world against real competition.



That being said, Rousey gave away a victory to Holm. If she had stuck to what she was a master instead of trying to prove she was just as good a striker as grappler (she hasn't learned how to throw a proper punch; she'd be crushed by Cyborg if they went tit for tat) she would have beaten Holm. Rousey believed her own hype and made a huge mistake with joining up with that camp run by the name i can never spell correctly and has a history of ruining MMA fighters careers by telling them what they want to hear instead of helping them with their weaknesses.

Isabella I of Castile (a true woman):



Isabella I (Spanish: Isabel I, Old Spanish: Ysabel I; 22 April 1451 – 26 November 1504) was Queen of Castille. She was married to Ferdinand II of Aragon. Their marriage became the basis for the political unification of Spain under their grandson, Holy Roman Emperor Charles V. After a struggle to claim her right to the throne, she reorganized the governmental system, brought the crime rate to the lowest it had been in years, and unburdened the kingdom of the enormous debt her brother had left behind. Her reforms and those she made with her husband had an influence that extended well beyond the borders of their united kingdoms. Isabella and Ferdinand are known for completing the Reconquista, ordering conversion or exile of their Muslim and Jewish subjects in the Spanish Inquisition, and for supporting and financing Christopher Columbus' 1492 voyage that led to the opening of the New World and to the establishment of Spain as the first global power which dominated Europe and much of the world for more than a century. Isabella was granted the title Servant of God by the Catholic Church in 1974.
