Transsexuella fightern Fallon Fox var mycket på tapeten under förra året, och åsikterna har varit många kring huruvida hon borde få gå MMA-matcher mot damer. Nu har UFC:s bantamviktsmästarinna Ronda Rousey gett sin syn på det hela, via ”TMZ Sports”:
I think it’s one of those situations where it’s a case-by-case thing. I actually tried to research a lot and I feel that if you already go through puberty as a man, it’s something you can’t really reverse. But there are people that are identified earlier on who are put on hormone replacement therapy until they’re of legal age, and they can make a decision to get the sex change later. That would be acceptable, that would be fine, because they wouldn’t have already developed the bone structure of a man, the muscular structure. You can’t just reverse that. There’s no ’undo’ button on that.
On a case-by-case basis, I think you really have to look at that, but in Fallon Fox’s case, I think that she has an unfair advantage. It is outside of her control, but that unfortunately is her scenario. It’s unfortunate especially for her competition, as well. I can knockout anyone in the world. Everyone is competition, that’s why I work harder than everyone else. I take everybody seriously, that’s why I win. It’s not because I had some radiation spilled on me, it’s because I work harder than all these girls do, including Fallon. I ain’t scared, homie.
Ronda stod senast inne i oktagonen vid UFC 175, då hon slog ut Alexis Davis efter bara 16 sekunder in i första ronden.
