UFC:s bantamviktsmästarinna Ronda Rousey har inte förlorat en match i sin MMA-karriär, och sist besegrade hon Sara McMann via TKO vid UFC 170. Under ”ESPN’s SportsNation” diskuterades det om en hypotetisk MMA-match mellan Ronda och boxaren Floyd ”Money” Mayweather, ett möte som Joe Rogan tror Rousey skulle vinna.
Här kan ni läsa vad han hade att säga:
It is all about how much time Floyd has to prepare, because he will really have to work on his takedown defence. That would be the big thing. If Ronda got a clinch on him, it is not just about worrying about being taken down to the ground; it is worrying about knees to the body. It is worrying about her manipulating his body in ways that he doesn’t understand.
It is too hard to avoid the clinch. If you watch a Floyd Mayweather fight, they very rarely end in a one-punch knockout. He has brittle hands. His hands break. You are talking about small gloves where hands are going to break even easier. She keeps her chin tucked, hands high and gets ahold of you. There is going to be a lot of things she is doing that he doesn’t understand.
He would have to go with the very best trainers in the world and spend a good, solid six months to a year on nothing but grappling.
Härnäst ser vi Ronda inne i oktagonen den 5 juli, då hon tar sig an Alexis Davis vid UFC 175 i Las Vegas.
