Ronda Rousey claimed that Brock Lesnar is a wonderful athlete and that their paths in MMA did not intersect since he competed in the sport before she did. She claimed that she hadn’t anticipated Brock Lesnar to be the coolest and most intelligent fighter because, for the most part, MMA athletes are not the academic kinds.

“I think he’s fantastic, I think he’s awesome … We kind of didn’t cross paths in MMA, he was kind of before my time a little bit but since coming to WWE, he’s been the absolute coolest. He’s super smart, I never would’ve guessed. In MMA I always just kind of assume, you know, fighters are all of a certain … They’re not the scholarly types, the most of them.”

Brock Lesnar is known for a successful MMA career and has been a one-time UFC heavyweight Champion. He was also awarded the breakthrough fighter of the year in 2009 by World MMA awards.
