Chicks That Can Kick My Ass
Hey Ladies, I posted this at BE earlier this week but didn't have the good sense to come over here and see what you guys had to say about it. Lemme know what you think. (HT: Rollo for the good idea)
I want to do a series of articles under the heading "Chicks That Can Kick My Ass". However, my WMMA knowledge is very limited. Obvious choices are Cris Cyborg, Gina Carano, Honda Housey, and Meisha Tate. Cyborg being the most obvious choice, I'd like to build up to that and focus on some other WMMA stars first (Or do a Cracked.com style top 5, but I'm just spitballing here). Help me out fellas, and refer me to any classic fights/gifs that I can focus on. I'll post whatever I come up with here and let you gentlemen rip it apart from top to bottom as a reward.
And here's a little present for your help from your friends at ICanHasCheezBurger: Game of Thrones: Awesomeness

Welcome!
Good to see you over here :)
I bet Midge knows of some fight videos to refer you to. I’m pretty useless but I bet someone can help you out. And, I’ll do some looking/thinking, too.

Thanks, Kat!
I lurk over here every once in a while, but don’t post too often. I’m gonna be working on it over the weekend and can’t wait to hear what the gals have for me.

I love Game of Thrones
and due to the transitive property of love, I now love you!
First I’d check out Ronda Rousey. This Honda Housey girl sounds like she means business, but Rhonda is just going to armbar her in the first round.
You mention Miesha Tate, but no MArloes Coenen. Unfortunately a lot fo casual fans have only seen her last two bouts where she came in injured and pulled a bad ass sub off her back against Liz Camouche (ala Silva v. Sonnen) and then lost her belt to Miesha Tate. But seriously, I’d take her in a rematch against Tate any day.
Seen Sarah Kaufman? She easily took out Miesha Tate. The only loss, or anything even close to defeat was again Coenen. Sarah Kaufman is an absolute beast.
Another amazing fighter is Roxanne Modafferi, who is finally kickin it in the proper weight class. That crazy girl. I adore her too, shes such a sweetheart.
Roxi’s two battles with the #1 125lber in the sport, Tara LaRosa, are to be watched and to appreciated. Taea LaRosa is just a mean muther fucker. She’s beat up your entire family if given the chance.
Cat Zingano will be known as the best in the world in time. She’s undefeated and is just starting to fight top fighters (and destroying them). amazing slam KO of Takayo Hashi in her last outing.Shes finished all but one of her fights.
Miku “SuperNova” Matsumoto is a fight fans wet dream who retired in her prime to be a Japanese woman.
Dude the list goes on. But that’s enough to tickle your taste buds and watcha lot of footage for now. If you get bored, check out my interview series “LAdies that Kick Ass” http://www.galsguidetomma.com/section/ladies-who-kick-ass
The bottom line is Georges is being a little bitch. He didn’t step up and say anything when the UFC pulled me out of this fight. I understand sometimes you have to do what you’re told, but why wouldn’t you tell the media you still want to fight me? If I was Georges, I would want to fight the best. I would have asked for the Anderson Silva fight. I would have asked to fight the Strikeforce champ. But he sits there like a robot and doesn’t say anything at all, just like he’s not going to say anything about me calling him a bitch now. If I saw BJ Penn walking down the street and called him a bitch, we would be fighting right there on the spot. — Nick Diaz
LOL! @ the Game of Thrones link!
My only contribution right now to this list is Marianna Kheyfets. I love that chick… her pro debut resulted in her submitting Kim Couture, I think in the first round. It was awesome. She is going to be a huge name eventually.

Is she the one that locked in the scissor choke
And inspired an infamous Open Letter?

Not Kheyfets. That was Sheila Bird. Kheyfets got her with a triangle.

Thanks everyone
And Midge, I appreciate the love of the GoT link. But, just to keep you from going all stalker on me; I hate Diaz and can’t wait for his destruction by GSP.
Again thank you, and I’ll make sure to repost the article over here when I get off my lazy ass and finish it

I don't hate either Diaz...
But I could watch Rory ragdoll Nate around the cage for hours. Awesome performance by Rory. Bad night for Nate.

no matter what you say about either diaz they still didn't quit in a fight
he did all that stuff and still couldn’t finish him
Rousey, Cyborg, Rin Nakai are the first three names that come to mind. Tara LaRosa also fits because she’s bad ass. And Megumi Fujii is great because she wins a ton and is a lovely gal. Her Twitter handle is @MegaMeguCat and she’s very generous with emoticons. She also could tap you out at just 115 pounds.
I just did a Fan Post which may be applicable about this week’s WMMA fights, check that out for some more names you might be interested in!

I'm breaking this up into two post so your computer doesn't hate me for the gif sizes
(if you want any of those gifs in smaller sizes/less time, just let me know.)
MMA Rising has rankings and a p4p list, if you’re looking for more fighters to include that would be a could place to start (I’m not sure about the particular strengths/weaknesses of your fight game, so I’m not sure who would qualify best.)
http://www.mmarising.com/rankings/womens-pound-for-pound-top-15/
http://www.mmarising.com/rankings/unified-womens-mixed-martial-arts-rankings/
Here’s a ridiculously awesome highlight reel of Cyborg (made to hype her fight with Carano) called Hurricane of Aggression- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=er93AeApIX0
And now it’s gif time. The Kaufman power-bomb is always a crowd-pleaser.

And I think you can never count out Mega Megu, if she were to fight you (I’m guessing she’d be at size disadvantage) she’d probably dive at your legs and look for a sub, probably breaking your ankle in the process. It might look something like this-

(I’m not sure if I should leave that gif as is or try for a different one. The video isn’t great quality but it’s the best I’ve seen so far, and footage cuts off right before Megumi’s opponent drags herself away with her foot dangling at an odd angle. It doesn’t quite have the same impact, but is a little more SFW and better for those with delicate sensibilities. Also the middle of this clip makes me lulz, because while fence/rope grabbing and holding on to shorts are commonplace, I rarely think about bra grabbing as both a tactic and something you could get deducted a point for.)
(These are the ones that are slow to load
but with all the hooey regularly posted by Rollo, I don’t feel bad about some longer MMA related stuff)
And then there’s Kaitlin Young. She’s had an up and down career, but she burst on the scene by winning an “old-school all in one night” tournament. It included three straight fights won by KO in under a minute, including a win over Miesha Tate. Her muay Thai game can be devastating, and it’s left some crumpled bodies and kick-ass gifs in its wake.

That same night, against Miesha Tate-

Thank you very much Balrog
The top 15 list will come in very handy, as well as the gifs.
