Harrison and Rousey share a history of war of words, fueled by constant comparisons between their achievements. The UFC Hall of Famer is an Olympic bronze medalist in judo and was once part of the same U.S. team as Harrison, who went on to win two Olympic gold medals in the sport.

Now, tensions have escalated into open hostility between Kayla Harrison and Ronda Rousey, with both fighters seizing everyopportunity to take shots at one another.

During a recent interview with UFC on Paramount+, Kayla Harrison fired back at Ronda Rousey, suggesting that “Rowdy” has been overstating her accomplishments in combat sports.

While the UFC champion acknowledged Rousey’s role as a trailblazer for women’s MMA, she took issue with the way the former WWE star has been promoting the Gina Carano bout, insisting there remains a clear and significant gap between their respective careers.

“I think that the part that bothers me the most about Ronda is that, at one point, she was a real athlete,” Kayla Harrison said. “She was training for the Olympics, she was an Olympic bronze medalist, she became UFC champion, she was really trying to chase greatness, and I will never take away the fact that Ronda is probably the most important female fighter.
