“Bring it on” said Rousey as she challenged Laila Ali

Ronda Rousey has responded to mockery from the undefeated former women boxing champion Laila Ali by challenging her openly for a bout. Only a few days ago, Ali claimed that no woman alive can beat her. She also ridiculed Rousey with taunts about her short size and compared the MMA star to her three-year-old daughter.

The thoughts and comparisons did not go down well with Rousey. The undefeated MMA fighter has declared herself ready to lock horns with the Ali should she be ready to accept the challenge and “bring it on”!

Ali, daughter of the legendary Muhammad Ali, has amassed a heap of silverware on her mantelpiece over the years. Now with children, Ali decided to hang up her gloves in her prime a couple of years ago. However, by the looks of it Ali might just strap them back on again.

According to a talk with the Daily Beast, Rousey said that if Ali is willing to fight, she is always ready to face her. Rousey said that she understands why Ali thinks that she can use her superior height to her advantage, but her last fight was proof that size or superior strength could be thwarted with smart fighting techniques.

“So you can’t count having a size and strength advantage as having a real advantage against me,” said Rousey.

It is worth mentioning that Rousey’s last fight was against Cat Zingano, who was undefeated until she met Rousey. The highly-anticipated fight lasted only 16 seconds as Rousey made Zingano tap out with an armbar after she tried a flying knee at the beginning of the game.

Ali hasn’t been in the ring since 2007. Meanwhile, Rousey seems to be crushing one opponent after another. Nonetheless, we all have seen Ali fight can safely bet that this will be a fight worth watching. The question before us is – who will remain undefeated at the end?
