Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Bas Rutten was asked how he thought Ronda Rousey could overcome the weight and size disadvantage against Nia Jax to win their match at WWE Money in the Bank.
Rutten replied that the bigger person may have an upper hand in the first 2 to 3 minutes but eventually, Ronda Rousey’s Olympic level athleticism, technique and skills will take over in the fight.
He said that there is a good chance that the bigger person (Nia Jax) would gas as she isn’t as well conditioned as Ronda, and compared the encounter to some of the MMA fights he had in Japan where his opponent outweighed him considerably.
