Should it be legal for Rousey to fight Caraway?
“I think if Ronda Rousey and Bryan Caraway talked enough $#!* and they decided to go at it, I don’t have any problem with that if they both agree to it.”
UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey and archrival Miesha Tate plus Tate’s boyfriend UFC fighter Brian Caraway have engaged in a now years-long verbal sparring match.
Rousey is asked regularly what man she would like to fight, and the reply remains the same.
People ask me this question all the time and it’s the same answer all the time, said Rousey in June of 2013. I would love to beat the s— out of Bryan Caraway, but apparently it’s not legal. And he seems like the kind of b—- that would sue me.
Late last year Rousey took it up a level, or six divisions, and said it would not be impossible for her to tap UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez.
“In any given moment, under the right circumstance, I think it is possible,” said Rousey. “You cannot tell me that it is physically impossible. It is possible that in any given moment that I could beat him. I simply believe in my possibilities.”
While the average fan will chalk that up to delusion, the average fan is not the most dominant fighter in any UFC division. Supreme confidence is a hallmark of any great champion.
In a recent ‘Fight Companion’ JRE for UFC 179, UFC color commentator Joe Rogan determined to stir things up, and lightheartedly outlined the argument that if the pair are aware and consent, then it should be legal.
“I think it should be legal to ride bulls, I think it should be legal to jump BMX, you should be able to do whatever the f— you wanna do,” said Rogan, as transcribed by MMANuts via MMAFighting.” I think a 135 pound chick should be able to fight a 135 pound dude.
“I think if Ronda Rousey and Bryan Caraway talked enough s— and they decided to go at it, I don’t have any problem with that if they both agree to it.”
So what do you think UG? Should it be legal? And how would it end? What about superfight at Metamoris??!?
