Overall: 97Striking: 97Grappling: 96Submissions: 98 At UFC 157 Ronda Rousey made history when she fought in the first ever Women's MMA match in UFC history. She is the first and currently only UFC Women's Bantamweight champion. Rousey joins Chris Weidman in the exclusive undefeated top-10-fighters category with a record of 9-0 (3-0 UFC). Her statistics reflect her high level judo all but one of her professional wins have come via Armbar. Rousey has never seen a fight go to the judge's scorecards and has never been into the championship rounds. Her submission pedigree has never been questioned but there have been those who had doubted the other aspects of Rondas MMA arsenal. She silenced these doubters in her last fight against fellow Olympic medallist Sara McMann. McMann had been touted as the greatest ever threat to Rondas belt as her silver-medal-level wrestling was supposed to be the perfect counter to Rondas bronze-level judo. However, Ronda came out super-aggressive and showcased the unbelievable improvements she had made in her striking, able to TKO McMann with a knee to the liver in the first round.
