by John Haigh @JohnBJayHaigh

UFC women’s champion Ronda Rousey weighs in on the Fallon Fox debate and she believes that she has an unfair advantage.

The Fallon Fox story has been around for a few weeks now and everybody in and out of the cage has an opinion on this story, the UFC’s Matt Mitrione has even had his UFC contract suspended over his comments on the situation.

Fallon Fox was born a man and underwent surgical procedures and other treatments to become a transgender woman in her 30's. Most people have gone off the deep end when giving opinions on Fallon Fox being allowed to compete in women's MMA.

Rousey did not, she was very considerate when giving her view on Fallon Fox and had clearly looked in to the situation before going on the record in a recent interview.

“Transgender fighters should be taken on a case-by-case basis, and if you already developed through puberty as a man, you shouldn’t be allowed to compete as a woman.”

“In Fallon Fox’s case, she went through puberty as a man. Though I do believe her identity is that of a woman, at this point in her life, it’s just not scientifically possible to make her body exactly equal to that of a woman, science just hasn't caught up yet.”
