Sarah tweeted me about maybe having Abby (15 year old Judo girl) come up for a weekend to train some Judo with her. Could be cool but I mean Abby is tiny and its not going to make much of a different obviously for 140+ lbs Rhonda. She needs to do nothing but train separating from the clinch and boxing.

[Jack Bando]

Yeah, it'd be a cool thing for Abby but the key to beating Rhonda is not take a judo class or two from the best 15 year old on the planet. It's having a "simple" gameplan, stay out of clinch range.

Yep pretty much. I think Sarah has probably the best technical boxing out of the girls we have seen so far, not the heaviest shots but she ****s up most on the feet over the fight. She doesn't need to learn Judo like you said, just dont play the Judo game period. I presume he will practice getting away from the clinch and maybe juuust maaaaaybe some armbar defense. I basically just mentioned to Sarah I knew a good Judo girl, and I live quite close to her. Would be more of a experience thing.

[pageh656]

getting tossed around by a 15 year old should do wonders for her confidence

[Count Chocula]

Why does everyone call her Rhonda? Is that also a joke?

Or is it just like when everyone was calling him Brett Rodgers?

[KPowers]

Phil Gandolf come on count you're better than that.
