Bruce Buffer thinks that if Ronda put in a full training camp without any distractions, her eventual rematch with Holly Holm would go a lot differently than their first fight.
Even before she lost to Holly, she had been talking about just disappearing from the public eye until UFC 200 next summer.

In the past, Ronda had said that she would purposely add a bunch of things to her calendar leading up to a fight to keep her hungry and to make it “more of a challenge”, but Bruce things the challenge finally caught up to her when she came face-to-face with the gamest opponent of her career.
The thing is… Ronda’s been training boxing for years, so a more-focused camp would definitely help with certain aspects of her game, but it’s not enough time to learn head movement or footwork. She had Holly in a couple of dangerous positions, too. Would she have been able to go for the kill if she had a better camp? We’ll see someday.
