Ronda Rousey has run through the best of the UFC’s bantamweight division, but believes a future showdown with Carano could be her toughest test:
“My coach said from the start that Gina is the worst style matchup for me,” Rousey said. “I’m not just saying that. I don’t have to worry about fighters outmuscling or overwhelming me or catching me on the mat. The only thing I have to worry about is the one-punch knockout.
And out of all of the women in MMA, Gina has the best feel for distance and timing. That’s not something you lose because you made a couple of movies. You’ll always have that. And she was the first girl I ever saw that had a one-punch standing knockout.”
