Rousey: ‘I’m also the best striker’

By BJPENN.COM News - February 18, 2014

“My MMA striking is the best in the game. It definitely is a challenge. With judo I spent so many years with a certain posture that the hardest thing was adjusting it. I’ve reached a certain level of competition where what’s required out of striking to come into the clinch to grapple is a lot more complicated than at the lower levels. It requires much more high-level footwork and striking to be able to use grappling at all… It’s a younger side of the sport that’s still developing. It’s going to need a little more time before we can reach the same standard the guys are at because they had a big head start.”

Rousey has finished all her fights via submission. Have we yet to see the best of the champ?
