Manny Pacquiao[ recently said ](http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/wp/2015/03/11/manny-pacquiao-ronda-rousey-would-beat-floyd-mayweather-in-an-mma-fight/)Ronda Rousey was “strong enough to beat Floyd Mayweather in MMA,” but it doesn’t look like the UFC champ will be putting that to the test anytime soon: she says she won’t fight a man.
In an interview with The Daily Beast, Rousey said she wouldn’t be interested in a battle of the sexes à la Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs. “I don’t think it’s a great idea to have a man hitting a woman on television,” she said. She noted that it would be a particularly bad idea in light of the domestic violence situation in the NFL.
“I’ll never say that I’ll lose, but you _could_ have a girl getting totally beat up on TV by a guy—which is a bad image to put across.”
