Eventually, this turned into a stamina war, where neither had any stamina left. And overall this turned way closer than it needed to be. Rousey’s toughness upgrades paid huge dividends, as she was able to survive some Murphy bursts at various moments in the fight, whereas early on Rouseys advantage was from having the health-upper-hand over her opponent. Allowed her to maintain control for a while, even when she was exhausted. Stamina from either fighter would have taken them over the edge of theiropponent here, as both were so damned tired mid-way through the fight
