Heh,

I would sympathize with her because it was pretty horrible to watch but her attitude stinks and she started believing her own BS. The UFC created this mess by over promoting a fighter that was on top of an empty division and hadn't really had a half decent challenge. Unfortunately we found out last year that she has no boxing skills worth mentioning and despite a year off, tried to continue with said 'skills'

The sheer audacity to go as far as calling out grown men like Floyd Mayweather when you have boxing skills as poor as that.. embarrassing.

That is appalling form for someone that was actually a world champion.

Points to make from the clips.

Her defence, you don't teach that in a year, it's shot.
Her straight right hands - they are beyond shocking for something that is the most basic of punch besides a jab. It's amateur level stuff but this is a Judo athlete that simply can not box.
Her head/chin never move, both clips show ridiculous openings for counter shots, something that Holm exposed a year ago. What Holm didn't bank on was that Rousey's defence really is that bad and the fight could've been done way sooner.
