Ronda Rousey vs. Bryan Caraway - Who wins?

PrintOk this is going to be a silly post, but I'm in a silly mood and want to stir the pot for the upcoming Miesha/Ronda fight. Excerpt from a recent interview:
I like Miesha and think she's the best 135er out there (Ieven thought she should've got the decision against Kaufman), but I don't think Miesha has world class grappling.
As for Bryan Caraway, I've only seen him during TUF and beyond. He certainly seems to have better striking than Ronda, but I'd bet Ronda could throw him on his head.
And the difference between a guy and a girl? Well Ronda says she trains with Olympic level wrestling talent at SK Goldenboys. Here's a video, Ronda from 0:22:
I'm on team Ronda, but I'm also on team Men, so I think I'd have to go with Bryan. But I really doubt he'd be able to do whatever he wanted, and I'd bet Ronda could throw him.
Give us Ronda vs. Bryan!
Also, Ronda's awesome Mom weighs in:

and...Brandao hits like a mule on roid rage
I doubt Ronda could ever generate that much power from her hips. Not in a fight anyway. smooth.

I’m a huge Ronda fan, but Caraway would destroy her.
The biological difference between men and women is just too great to overcome. Ronda could certainly tool your average ‘man on the street’, but against a highly trained male MMA fighter who is good enough to make it to the UFC, she would get smoked.

are you really "Still Subo at Fightlinker.com"?
haven’t seen you since the douchetastic end to PissGate a few weeks ago, where for the umpteenth and final time, you welshed on your bet with GlassJawsh.
Don't make bets with Subo. He doesn't honor his agreements.
Really?
So if I drink piss tomorrow, it doesn’t count?

Caraway would easily knock her out
There's no moral order at all. There's just this: can my violence conquer yours?

that's where I'm at.
The only manly thing Ronda can do is throw. Not being sexist, but I’m pretty sure 145 lb boy pro fighters hit harder than 145 lb girl pro fighters. Forget competing weight and think natural body weight and how much water gets cut. Come fight day Ronda might be 7 or 8 lbs heavier whereas Caraway would be 10-20 (22 if you count hair product).
Again, my wife is allowed to wear shoes in the kitchen and doesn’t have to raise her hand to address me anymore, so this is not a sexist statement.

sorry bro
it should have read “throws” not “throw,” which I hoped implied her Judo as a whole, throws, sweeps and takedowns.
Juji gatame is more finesse and use of leverage and momentum than explosion power in my opinion, but I completely see how my use of throw could be misleading.

POKEYMAN! WITH THE POKEY AND THE MAN AND THE okay, sorry.
Anyway, I bet Caraway starts to dominate until Ronda insults him, and then he goes in the corner and cries.

Is it just me
Or do you post about Rousey a lot?
I thought Lay N Pray was a stupid insult until I watched Tyrone Woodly fight.
Or do you postabout Rouseya lot?

I enjoy the captions. They deliver the lulz

It's no big deal,
I just wondered if you were doing PR- I checked out your site.

Fightbot, where you at?
I sent you’re blog to Ronda and her mom.
DrAnnMaria said “That was very nice post. Thank you for pointing it out.” via her twitter

Yeah, I like you're blogs
I know they keep an eye on media and what not. Ronda even retweets articles that aren’t “pro Ronda” to promote her and women in general. As long as it’s true and informational they like it. Your blog is both and I’ve recommended it to a few folks.
yeah her mom is badass. you know she got a 1600 on the SAT. Do you have a twitter?

I believe I’ve read every post on both her blogs, but I don’t remember seeing the SAT thing. Doesn’t surprise me though, she’s got a crazy work ethic.
No I don’t have a twitter, which is why I appreciate you putting stuff on there, very cool of you to take the time.
No proplemo bro.
I think Ronda mentioned the SAT in a 4 part interview with fightlinker. Have you seen that?

Ah yes that’s right. Yeah I’ve seen every single Ronda interview online. Like, literally. I did so much research on her for a post that I felt like a total creeper.
Also, if you wanna compare Ronda’s acting to Gina’s, here’s a clip of Ronda from a cheesy amateur film: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KOXtNTfJqY from 0:05.
Haven't seen that one
Yeah, I cheered for her in the 08 olympics and was hyped to see her join mma. Having seen most of her interviews and media, I found your blog interesting and could tell you had done your research. You’re putting into words what myself and others have been saying for months. I hope you keep posting.
Kudos to you.

The real question should have been:
What about Caraway vs. Cyborg?!?!?!

I hope the poll results are a joke.

Ronda only wins if Bryan’s hair gets messed up in a stand-up exchange.

Its called the food chain, if you can dangle a couple of balls (1 if your Sonnen) then you sit atop that bitch.

Hard to say who wins the fight, but who wins overall... I'd say
Ronda because she’d be getting sweaty with Miesha’s man boy and that’d drive someone like her up a wall or thirty.
