Ex-UFC Fighter: You have to be high if you think Rousey would beat Mayweather

“Former UFC fighter and pro wrestler David “Tank” Abbott says he could easily “bash” up undefeated UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey. His reasoning? “She’s a girl.”

Weighing in on the debate over who would win a fight between Rousey and Floyd Mayweather on “The Proving Ground” podcast this week, Abbott said the boxer would “knock the living stuffing out of Rousey.”

"She’s a girl. It’s all about this emotional stuff,” he said.

Earlier this year, Rousey one-upped Mayweather at the 2015 ESPY Awards, snagging the title of “Best Fighter.” At the time, UFC president Dana White said that Rousey would easily crush the boxer in a fight.

“Ronda would rag doll him,” White told TMZ.

During his podcast, Abbott argued that anyone who believed such a thing had to be high on drugs.

“What kind of medical marijuana are people smoking?” he asked.

Mayweather has the advantage. He has more experience fighting women than Rousey does fighting men.

its pretty funny.

I like UFC, I enjoy watching boxing as well. I don't think the "rousey would destroy mayweather" crowd can comprehend just how fast and accurate Mayweather's hands are...especially if you put them in those little UFC gloves. A glancing blow to an incoming Rousey would knock her out cold. She may be the best in the world at female MMA but has never been hit in the same ballpark as an elite boxer would hit her...especially a male elite boxer. Even the best hands in UFC do not remotely compare to that of a truly elite boxer.

Tank was just a one dimensional bar room bully.

While I agree; I don't hold much stock in his opinions
