Ronda Rousey, the UFC women’s bantamweight champion, beat out Floyd Mayweather Jr. for the Best Fighter award at the 2015 ESPYS. On the red carpet afterward, Rousey absolutely leveled Mayweather verbally.


Rousey, one of the biggest UFC stars, is apparently miffed that Mayweather allegedly did not know who she was. At the time there was much talk about how Mayweather would fare against her in a mixed martial arts fight; when asked about that mythical matchup Mayweather initially said “I don’t know who he is.”

Mayweather is the top pound-for-pound boxer in the world, and if he wins his next fight in September will match the 49-0 record that legendary fighter Rocky Marciano retired with. His fights are rarely as entertaining for fight fans as Rousey’s are, who has beaten her last two opponents in seconds. Combined, Alexis Davis and Cat Zingano (who entered the fight undefeated) lasted 30 seconds.

Rousey sounded like she’d love to get a piece of Mayweather, but she’s currently focused on preparing to inflict maximum punishment on Bethe Correia at UFC 190 on August 1. Correia drew Rousey’s ire by making a joke on social media about hoping Rousey didn’t kill herself after suffering her first loss.

Rousey’s father committed suicide when she was a child; Correia claimed she did not know that, and apologized on social media. It’s safe to say Rousey was not accepting.
