FORMER UFC FIGHTER and professional wrestler David ‘Tank’ Abbot has said he could easily “bash” UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey because “she’s a girl.”
While Abbot is factually correct about Rousey’s sex, his problem with women MMA fighters appears to run deeper than just the undefeated 28-year old.
Speaking on The Proving Ground podcast this week, Abbott — who appeared on the TV show Friends as the UFC fighter who beat up Monica’s then boyfriend Peter Becker — weighed in on a potential fight between Rousey and Floyd Mayweather saying:
“[He'd] knock the living stuffing out of Rousey.
“She’s a girl. It’s all about emotional stuff. I don’t care, I will fight any woman on this earth for free, I won’t even train.
“I will fight you and if I win, which is going to happen, and you’re going to get bashed up good, you have to make me a sandwich.
“If you win, I’ll give you $100,000.”
