Examining Inaugural Women’s Bantamweight Champion’s Career

Ronda Rousey, much like any number of other MMA legends, became a household name during her time in the sport. Before she took the women’s division of WWE by storm, before she headlined WrestleMania in the spring of 2019, the one nicknamed “Rowdy” conquered the sport of MMA.

Although Ronda Rousey’s time in MMA came to an end in December of 2016 after dropping a first-round knockout to Amanda Nunes (23-5 MMA, 16-2 UFC) in UFC 207 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, the mark she left on the sport will be long remembered.
