On Wednesday, Manny Pacquiao stopped by ESPN’s His & Hers to discuss his highly-anticipated fight with Floyd Mayweather on May 2.

However, when the conversation turned to MMA star Ronda Rousey — who has been vocal about wanting tickets to the fight and the fact that she’s rooting for Pacquiao — the boxer gave her props in return.

When co-host Jemele Hill asked Pacquiao if Rousey could beat Mayweather, he said:

“I believe so. She’s strong. She’s strong enough to beat Floyd Mayweather in MMA.”

One thing is for sure: the two of them would make quite the team.
