Ultimate Fighting Championship Women's Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey commented on transgender MMA fighter Fallon Fox.
UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey spoke to the New York Post about transgender fighter Fallon Fox and about the comments that Matt Mitrion made earlier this week.
She can try hormones, chop her pecker off, but it's still the same bone structure a man has," Rousey told The Post. "It's an advantage. I don't think it's fair.
I understand the UFC doesn't want to be associated with views like Mitrione's. I'm also glad they didn't straight cut him.

Rousey also told the New York Post that she fought hermaphrodites in Judo and that she had no problems with that because that was something they didn't choose, and Fallon Fox choose to change gender so it's slightly different with her.
It's not something that happened to her. It was a decision she made. She should be aware in her career after that, it's going to be an arduous path. I don't know why she's surprised by that. It's going to draw a lot of emotions. What if she became UFC champion and we had a transgender women's champion?" Rousey said. It's a very socially difficult situation.
Right now, Rousey would prefer not to fight Fallon Fox, but she will if the UFC asks her to. Who do you guys think will win that fight?
Ronda Rousey is set to face the winner of Miesha Tate vs. Cat Zingano.
