Ronda Rousey has been fantastic in her MMA career so far, finishing all 10 bouts including six title fights. According to the UFC bantamweight champion though, we haven’t seen her perform at her best just yet. I’m not exactly sure how she can look even more dominant, but Rousey is currently going through rehab, and promises to be even ‘scarier’ when she fights without that bum knee hampering her movement.

“This was actually my 4th knee surgery, and my 3rd scope. I’ve had it much worse before”, Rousey said on UFC Tonight, “I tell people I’ll fight today. If they need a fight, I would do it today. It’s going to be scary when I come back at 100%. I’ve been operating on one leg pretty much for a couple of years. Now, it’s gone to a point that my range of motion and everything is better than it has been since I was 16.”

“When I’m 100% back, I feel… No, I don’t feel sorry for people ever actually, never mind.”

Rousey also spoke about prospective challengers such as Gina Carano, Holly Holm, Cris Cyborg, and even possibly one of the ‘Four Horsewomen’. Watch it on the clip above.
