Former UFC fighter says he'll pay Ronda Rousey $100,000 if she beats him in a fight - otherwise she'll need to 'make him a sandwich'

Forget Floyd Mayweather, a possible new male contender for UFC champ/actress Ronda Rousey has arisen.

In an interview on the Proving Ground podcast, former UFC fighter Tank Abbott had some choice words for Rousey.

"She's a girl," Abbott, 50, said. "It's all about this emotional stuff."

The 250-pound Abbott, who was 8-10 during his UFC career, made it clear that he thought Rousey didn't stand a chance against him or any man in a fight. Abbott also said he wouldn't even have to prepare to take her on.

"I don't care - I will fight any woman on this Earth for free," he said. "I will. She will have to make me a sandwich - that's what I get for winning."

Abbott didn't stop there, however, adding that he would give $100,000 to any woman who beat him in the octagon.

As if those comments weren't antagonistic enough, he felt the need to further make himself clear: "You can't be, like, a tranny," Abbott added. "You gotta be a female. Born a female."

Rousey has said multiple times in the past that she would never fight a man because of domestic-violence implications, so don't expect this to happen, but if anything could stoke the fire under Rousey, this is it.
