Ronda Rousey vs Katie Taylor<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no doubting that Ronda Rousey is a mega star. She\u2019s the biggest star in the history of women\u2019s MMA and has been widely acknowledged as the person who brought women into the UFC.<\/p>\n

In her prime, she was a force to be reckoned with, progressing to 12-0 with 12 finishes before it all came crashing down against Holly Holm in 2015. Rousey was never known for her boxing, despite claims that she could have beaten Floyd Mayweather<\/a>. Her lack of striking ability was exposed in a 48 second blow-out at the hands of Amanda Nunes when\u00a0Rowdy returned to action.<\/p>\n

She retired and wrote in her second book that she had suffered concussion like symptoms for much of her career in the UFC, especially after the Holm knockout.<\/p>\n

Katie Taylor is the Irish sweetheart of the boxing world. She holds a professional record of 25-1, avenging her only loss immediately afterwards. She\u2019s a two-time undisputed world champion and is coming off the trilogy bout with rival, Amanda Serrano.<\/p>\n

Discussing what\u2019s next, Taylor told BoxingScene:
\u201cI\u2019m not too sure \u2013 waiting to see what happens. I\u2019m ready to fight whenever, really, and take on whatever challenge comes next. Right now, I\u2019m waiting to see what that is. Any of the big names, any of the big fights \u2013 I\u2019m ready to take on them all.\u201d<\/p>\n

At 39,\u00a0many believed\u00a0The Bray Bomber would hang them up after her epic trilogy with Serrano, however, a big money fight with Ronda Rousey could tempt her into one last camp!<\/p>\n
