UFC women’s bantamweight champion ‘Rowdy’ Ronda Rousey will put her title on the line when she takes on fellow undefeated challenger Bethe ‘Pitbull’ Correia in an extremely personal encounter. Join The Roar from 12pm (AEST) for live commentary.
One of the most dominant fighters of all time, Rousey has become a superstar since her introduction into the UFC. The women’s bantamweight champion is not only undefeated but has finished all of her fights in spectacular and dominant fashion.
Rousey is a former Olympian and has the best Judo in MMA. Her signature arm-bar is feared by all, and recent back-to-back first-round knockouts over Alexis Davis and Sara McMann proved that Rousey is not only dominant on the ground, but also on the feet.
Correia is a vicious striker and is coming off a second-round knockout win over Shayna Baszler. Undefeated in MMA also, Correia has a goal to finish her career undefeated.
Two of her three UFC wins are over Rousey’s good friends Baszler and Jessamyn Duke. Those two, along with Marina Shafir called themselves the ‘Four Horsewomen’, and Correia is adamant about bringing that stable down for good.
Correia made the bout extremely personal when she stated that she hoped Rousey wouldn’t kill herself after she beat her at UFC 190. Ronda’s father committed suicide when she was just eight years old.
Ronda is looking to punish Corriea, and is claiming that she is going to purposely prolong the finish. Corriea is looking for a stand-up war and is confident that she can knock Rousey out and get the belt.
Prediction
Rousey is far too good both standing up and on the ground. Corriea may give her trouble early, but expect the champ to quickly pull the fight in her favour and finish Corriea in typical Rousey fashion.
Ronda Rousey via TKO in the first round.
Can Rousey extend her incredible run as champion, or will Corriea take out another ‘Horsewoman’ and win UFC gold? Join us on The Roar from 12pm AEST to find out.
