9 Awesome Things Ronda Rousey Has Done As UFC Champion
2. She Took A Stand Against Floyd Mayweather's History Of Domestic Violence
Floyd Mayweather is a boxer who makes a lot of money. Ronda Rousey is an MMA fighter who makes a lot of money, though not as much as Mayweather. He's in the hundreds of millions, she's in the millions. However, one of them is much more entertaining, and it certainly isn't Mayweather jogging around the ring for twelve rounds. Then there's the fact that Mayweather has a history of violence against women, something his own son has called him out for, and something that one particular violent woman - Rousey - has had something to say about. Appearing at the ESPY awards, where she beat Mayweather for Best Fighter in 2015, she mocked Money by saying "I can't help but really say that I wonder how Floyd feels being beat by a woman for once." Ouch. Though this would feel a little more pointed if Rousey wasn't currently involved with Travis Browne, who is under investigation for spousal abuse against his estranged wife.
