RouseyMayweather

Ronda Rousey is not backing down in her feud with Floyd Mayweather.  On Monday night when she was asked by a fan in an Ask Me Anything chat on Reddit whether she could take Mayweather in a no-holds-barred bout, Rousey did not pull any punches.

“Floyd is one of the best boxers of all time,” said Rousey, the UFC female bantamweight champion. “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,” she said. “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.”

Rousey’s comment comes almost a month after she told reporters after winning an ESPY award for Best Fighter, for which Mayweather was a nominee: “I wonder how Floyd feels being beat by a woman for once. I’d like to see him pretend to not know who I am now.”

Rousey said she had been waiting for the right opportunity to call out Mayweather, who in a July 2014 interview said of her, “I don’t even know who he is.”
