Manny Pacquiao says Ronda Rousey would beat Floyd Mayweather in a fight

Seems like a pretty safe bet, honestly.

Manny Pacquiao appeared on His & Hers on ESPN Wednesday to talk about his upcoming fight against Floyd Mayweather. Hosts Jemele Hill and Michael Smith asked Pacquaio whether he believes Ronda Rousey could beat Mayweather in an MMA fight, and Pacquiao eventually responded that he thinks she could.

If it’s an MMA fight, I don’t think Mayweather really has much of a chance, even though he’s got about 15 pounds on her. Yes, that’s even remembering that he won a match at WrestleMania 24.
