Rousey: "If GSP wasn't really good-looking, and Canadian, he would be unkown"
Everybody keeps coming up to me and saying, 'Oh, do you think if you didn't look such a way, people would like you so much?' I'm like, 'Dude, if GSP was butt ugly, you wouldn't want to know who he is so much.'
I think he lucked out a lot that he's Canadian. I love Canadians. They are the coolest, nicest, most patriotic people, and they will support their countrymen no matter what, and I think that's commendable. But if GSP wasn't really good-looking, and really Canadian, he would be really unknown.
"He fights to win matches. He doesn't fight to defeat his opponents."
Personally I can't wait until womens MMA disappears before it even begins in the UFC. Rousey especially, absolutely as dumb as they come but most of all a total disgrace to our sport.

"Our" sport¿ Do you mean the sport of sitting in your sofa with chips and cans of beer while keyboard-warrioring¿ Or do you mean the sport of MMA¿ Then being an elite athlete, training in the gym for several hours a day and actually competing, it's definitely more HER sport than it is yours.
It's understandable that for some people naked sweaty men engaging on the mats are more attractive, but you should accept that there are others who just want to see people fight regardless of their sexual appeal.

Yes "our" sport, this "our" thing you speak of just happens to include these things called fans that have supported this sport throughout the years and that have solely made the UFC/MMA everything that it is today.
Coincidentally this thing called "our" allows the UFC to purchase Bentley's as bonuses for their athletes, "our" has also made a lot of people very rich, many of which don't even have to fight or train for MMA fights. "Our" pays for the first class airline flights, "our" pays for the luxury hotel rooms and champagne. Basically "our" picks up the entire tab for the UFC when all is said and done. How dare "our" have a rightful opinion over some piece of trash WWE/UFC gimmick just because she works out at the gym 6 hours a day.
If Rousey wasn't good looking and American nobody would know her. Want proof? How many people know Megumi Fujii? Same goes for everybody else on the planet.
Fuji is nothing like Ronda though, she's lost twice in the last 2 years. Ronda is seen as this unstoppable armbar Queen, Fuji just got beaten by Aguilar and only squeaked past Zoila.
I don't really understand how gsp is considered good looking. Yeah George puts on a fly suit and has abs but a lot of people do that. Gsp looks like a giant ripped baby to me. The fuzzy head and the way his face is shaped looks like a baby.
Rousey::confused03:I still think no one give a crap about woman mma. I cant not even name 10 figther, So only way to promote that train werck is Make horny pic for magasine talk about sex and name gsp here and there lol.
Attractive people have a distinct advantage in life. This is especially true in the context of MMA where promotion is half the game. We all know this.
Having said that, Ronda Rousey is slightly above average at best. You could take any women that's in shape and not butt ugly, strip her down to next to nothing, give her a nice tan and have her hair blow in the wind and men everywhere would want to f*** her. The whole thing reminds me of this Daniel Tosh joke:
IMO, this Daniel Tosh sucks and he lost his cause completely when he said Maria Sharapova isn't hot. C'mon, man, Maria Sharapova isn't hot? That was quite a stretch on trying to sell his joke.
She's annoyed with everybody talking the same stuff about her. Now with her turning it around and just saying the same thing about someone else, everybody gets mad at her. :confused03:
At the end of the day, GSP fought for and earned his title. In one of the most stacked divisions no less. Rousey was simply handed a UFC belt. She has no business speaking ill of any champion before she's yet to even defend her gifted championship belt.
I'm no Rousey fan but I think a lot of people are reading too much into this. She is defending herself more than attacking GSP. It is 100% true, people think she's where she is because of her looks and charm... which is a fact, but she can fight as well... all she is saying is that sometimes it goes both ways.
Obviously we all know GSP is an amazing fighter, but she isn't wrong when she says he fights to win fights... and that would get a lot of fighters on the bad side of the fans... and frankly that has happened to GSP a lot, including people on here.
Name me one thing GSP has done that is comparable to:-
Getting beaten for 22 minutes straight before submitting the dude administering said beating?
Knocking out a hardcore striker with a front kick to the face?
What he did to Forrest?
What he did to Bonnar?
What he did to Okami?
The deconstruction of Rich Franklin?
Taking a solid round of Hendo grind before humiliating the twat?
If you can see the difference between what GSP does and the above, then no... you really are not getting it. The best thing GSP ever did was turn around that first BJ fight. Since then hes been methodical and very efficient... but not Jedi.
Strange comment from Rousey but on the other hand we are not dealing with a Rhodes scholar. I mean she is a normal, average, relatively good-looking girl, who chooses to be an MMA fighter. I'm not sure we should expect intelligent comments all the time. I;m just saying, if I were a girl and half decent looking I wouldn't choose to be a MMA fighter.
She's trying too hard to be a female version of Sonnen.
