"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

But she can beat Mayweather and men

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

She'll be back lol. This fight was a little different as Holly was more of a boxer while Ronda is more of the Judo type of person, but Ronda could never get as close to Holly to dominate her. Holly kept her away with those punches.

Ronda just wasn't used to this type of style.

I dont usually mock people coming out of a defeat but when it comes of her I feel to make an exception.

Everywhere from facebook to mainstream entarteinement it was about her being this or being that, able to beat men, cool, too cool for us and so on...there wasnt a single day without a c0cky statement from her.

But maybe Im a bigot since I dont find female professional fighters any cool, I find them the counterpart of skinnyfat men competing about who match colors better when it comes of clothes..

Rhonda is the type who'll NOW work feverishly on her striking, especially kicking. It's been a weak spot in her reportire for a long time now

Yep, people forget she won several of her first fights with a simple takedown-mount-arm bar, just basic jits 101.

Her boring fighting was ok for a while because she's hot, but there is pressure on every fighter to be entertaining. People buy tickets and ppv to see punches and kicks, not boring-ass grappling. Rhonda out-boxed a few weaker opponents in recent events, and must have gotten the obviously incorrect idea that she could spar with a champion boxer. I would blame her trainers for letting her get that impression. Her stand-up sucks. She looks like a little monkey bouncing around the cage. And it's her trainer's job to tell her that. All she had to do was take the fight to the ground, and she would have won easily. But she was too vain, stupid, poorly trained, or a combination of the three.

Last night was the best thing to happen to Dana White in a long time. He was creaming his pants thinking about the rematch as soon as Rousey started bleeding.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

A truly VICIOUS kicker, (all types positions, either foot) is an extremely dangerous opponent. But it takes a tremedous amount of work and balance to be such a kicker. When your kicking is as reflexive as your eyeblink, you'll have arrived. Moon used to tell us that if we could not swat a fly with a certain type of kick, we should not try to use it in a real fight. I never got that, except for below the belt front snap kicks. :) But such are all you need, if you also have good hands.

no, she's not. Just watch. She's never had the size weight advantage, she's fast, tenacious and smart. Now that she's been forced to realize her weakness, she'll fix it. She's got the time, money and incentive to do so.

Wow a nuthugger /labiahugger. She ain't all that my friend , without the jujitsu 101 she is nothing. I guaranteed you after this she will be beat every single time.

The mistake I noticed most of all was that when Holm punched her Rousey didn't do anything of either parry, dodge, block or respond... she just let Holm ramp up the damage to her. It's stuff you learn when you first start training and a really basic mistake.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

For anyone to convince Ronda that she was a world class boxer and for the people around her to allow her to BELIEVE it is utterly ridiculous and shameful. This is not reality ...
And the delusion was so strong for so long... between rounds even her corner couldn't be honest with her... Either...because they were totally blinded by ego or living in the same bubble and they couldn't see it with realistic eyes or simply out of fear of shattering the champions frail veil of invincibility.

She's not even that great. It was all just hype because she has a vagina. People are sheep.

There's rumors right now that she will soon fire her boxing coach; he's been in bankruptcy court lately over unpaid taxes.

And I don't think there is enough time left in her career to surpass Holly Holm in striking skill, or at least boxing skill. I'd have her learn one Muay Thai leg kick; like Bruce Lee said, the one kick you do 1,000 times instead of the thousand kicks you do once, and then do what GSP did and go hang out with the olympic wrestling team. If Rousey could take her down at will, she'd win the fight. A good wrestler can beat a great boxer that way. But she's never going to be able to out-box a great boxer.
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

2-3 kicks would suffice to give her the chance to take it to the ground. anyone can see that she's no striker, so why kid themselves about it? she can still (easily) become enough of a kicker to handle a mere boxer.

Her corner should've instructed her to get her down. She took a bunch of damage trying to hang in there with Helm.

eventually, you will always run into somebody who can strike well enough that you CANT just take them down. you MUST learn the standup game, especially kicking and evading/blocking kicks.

She should've dodged a punch and did her thing in getting in close and taking her down.

It's like she was just eating punches...
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
