Ronda Rousey’s ex-boyfriend has made a pretty outlandish claim about the UFC champ

Would he say this to her face?

Ronda Rousey can handle herself pretty well.

The UFC bantamweight champion is notorious for dispatching almost all of her opponents in the first round…and she’s just as ruthless when she’s sparring blokes in the cage. 

That’s what makes this claim by Rousey’s ex boyfriend and heavyweight MMA fighter Brendan Schaub seem all-the-more crazy.

Shaub told UFC commentator Joe Rogan that he was too much man for her. The fighter went on to say that “I’m not the man for her. She needs someone who’s going to take a backseat.”

We’re going to go out on a limb here and say that whatever ended the relationship between Schaub and Rousey, it was probably not that he was ‘too much man’ for her.

Who knows, with Rousey undefeated and Shaub with five losses on his record, perhaps it was the other way round?
