How do u score takedowns/trips/throws when ur opponent has superior footwork that doesn't allow u to close the distance?

Technically she beat Rhonda at that game since she got the only takedown of the match. Rhonda barely got her in a clinch since she was so focused on trying to outbox her (which was stupid). Her own camp told her after round one that Holm was setting her up for left jabs. Rhonda was throwing haymakers and Holm was picking her apart. Very critical boxing much like Jon Jones whom I believe she trains sometimes with.

Jiu Jitsu fighters and wrestlers tend to do most of their punching and advancing on the ground. This should be everyones clue where Rhonda went wrong once she met a potent opponent.

U don't seem to be understanding, Ronda has to close the distance in order to get into the clinch and initiate Judo trips/throws. She was not successful at all with coming forward and closing distance because Holm had better footwork/movement and better boxing at range. Ronda didn't score takedowns/trips/throws because Holm never allowed her to get into range to do those things.
