Rousey Running Smack...

...says she can beat the men's heavyweight champion...under the right circumstances.
Given that she's a bantamweight, I could see a fair fight against a guy of her own weight class, or maybe one or two classes either way. I'm not so sure she could pull off jumping up quite THAT far. It took quite a bit for Leonard to beat a light heavyweight, jumping up a LOT from middleweight...and settling on an intermediate weight helped in that it messed up Lalonde...and that was just boxing. Making the jump in MMA, where there's a whole lot more going on? I'm not so sure.
But I WOULD love to see her pull it off.
