It all started when Floyd Mayweatherreferred to Ronda Rousey as a "he" a little more than a year ago. Since then, Rousey has fired off one jab after another until Mayweather responded with a very Floyd-esque comeback. When it looked like their little verbal back-and-forth was going to die down, the UFC's Twitter account added their two cents, re-igniting the feud.
Fittingly, Rousey participated in Reddit AMA tonight and as expected, Mayweather's name was brought up. While there were probably plenty of questions regarding Money Mayweather, the UFC Bantamweight champion responded to the one asking if she could "legitimately beat Floyd Mayweather in a ruleless fight"?
Do I think I would legit beat Mayweather in a ruleless fight? Floyd is one of the best boxers of all time. He would definitely beat me in a boxing match. I unfortunately don't get into "matches". I fight for a living. In a no rules fight, I believe I can beat anyone on this planet. Boxing is a sweet science with strict rules that I respect very much and aspire every day to improve at. But you said ruleless fight, and that's my honest answer.
Have fun in the comment section with this one.
