She uses her leverage better than most fighters I've ever seen. Great fighter.

Ladies: Please stop turning Ronda being a great fighter into an issue about girl power. Its great more females are into MMA these days, but for the love of Zeus keep the feminist bullshit out of it and just enjoy the sport.

Ronda still has mad skills, especially applying the arm bar...she may or may not compete again, but she opened the door WIDE for women to follow her...

she is annoyingly good at grappling. if I trained the rest of my life, I will never be as smooth as her. Ronda, you are AMAZING

"Judo is one of the lesser-known grappling arts" No it isn't... Judo is the second most popular sport in the world (after soccer), the second most popular Olympic combative sport and has over 2.2 million practitioners worldwide. It's the MOST popular grappling art in the world, maybe the most popular art period, don't be silly.

I love when every now and then someone demonstrates that many elements of Judo or Karate or TKD can be really effective if put well into an MMA game.
