Going into her bout against Sara McMann, there had been discussions among the critics that when it came to her striking game, Rousey was severely lacking. Rousey had won two fights, using the Armbar in both to overpower her opponent.

At UFC 170, Rousey faced off against McMann, who was an Olympic athlete and was being touted as the toughest woman to have ever stepped up to face Ronda. There was widespread belief that with this fight Ronda would finally lose her title, and the 'excessive' hype train which was behind her would come to a grinding halt.

However, once the fight started, it became obvious this was not the case. Rousey fought well and around a minute into the first round, she hit McMann with a knee to the liver. This sent McMann down to the mat, and just like that the fight was over.

She had in one blow, silenced those who had thought her reign would be at an end, while also nullifying the criticism that her striking game was not strong.
