Laila Ali: I can beat Ronda Rousey
Although she never competed in professional MMA, she is confident in any fight, against any woman, included UFC champion Ronda Rousey.
Laila Ali, daughter of the great Muhammed Ali, was one of, if not the best, woman’s boxer to ever get in the ring. Although she never competed in professional MMA, she is confident in any fight, against any woman, included UFC champion Ronda Rousey:
Muhammad Ali’s daughter — who was 24-0 in her boxing career — was at LAX this weekend when we asked if she thought she could hang with the MMA superstar if the two ever decided to fight.
At first, the 37-year-old champ was shy … saying it’s hard to compare a boxer to an MMA fighter … but ultimately declared, “No woman can beat me, period.”
The 5’10” Ali also pointed out her size advantage over the 5’7″ Rousey — “She’s like the size of my daughter … my 3-year-old.”
