Trainer: Amanda Nunes' striking is 'light years' ahead of Ronda Rousey's, can beat 'Rowdy' now

Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women's bantamweight champion,Ronda Rousey, has proven she can outstrike the best of them, but she has yet to face someone with the stand up skills that Amanda Nunes possesses.

That's according to one of Amanda's trainers, Mike Brown, who said her student's striking is "light years" ahead of "Rowdy's."

"In my opinion, I think she is. I think her stand-up is light years ahead of Ronda's. But obviously Ronda is super talented. The best. [Amanda] would have to use good footwork and score and move and try to stay off the ground, because Ronda is a phenom on the ground.
