Ronda Rousey appears to have been born to compete in combat sports. She acquired notoriety and distinction as a combatant, emerging as the best of her time. Before beginning her career with WWE, Rousey, who is presently the top female WWE superstar, absolutely dominated the MMA scene and served as the central element for the UFC’s women’s division.

Brendan Schaub, her ex-boyfriend, claimed that despite the fact that Rowdy faced formidable competition, the spectators were unimpressed with her opponents since she was so dominant in the UFC. Additionally, he said that Rousey has the Mike Tyson effect while complimenting.

On the Joe Rogan podcast in 2015, her ex-boyfriend Schaub, who is also a famed UFC fighter, made some incredible remarks about her illustrious career when she was a dominant force. He asserted Rousey had the Mike Tyson effect, whereby you are too excellent to make your opponent feel weak since she spent most of her time as a champion in the UFC and has an unbeaten run.

 In his words, “I bet when she fights in Brazil I don’t think the number aren’t great. Because really she is destroying bit**s, right? You get the Mike Tyson effect where you are too good, where it’s like hold up. I’m not gonna spend $70 to see Merc, some girl in 15 seconds. Not that she is not fighting good fighters, but people assume that are not good. And Ronda is just being spoon-fed. [1:57:12-1:57:34]”

Indeed, Rousey’s record speaks for itself when it comes to how dominating she was in the UFC. And her long-lasting streak seems to have no end. And she did have the same dominance as Mike Tyson.
