Ric Flair, a WWE legend, isn’t afraid to do a little more talking even after he’s more or less done in professional wrestling. He recently told Wrestlingnews.co that he thinks his daughter, Ashley (Charlotte), could hang with Ronda Rousey in a fight. Not just a WWE match–a real fight.
Given that she has a year to train and learn how to actually wrestle, Flair thinks his daughter has a shot.
“In all fairness, if she had a year to train, I’m not saying Ashley would win by any means, but if she had a year to get ready for it, it wouldn’t end in round 1,” he said in an interview. “I’ll predict that. It wouldn’t be a 14 second tap out.”
Flair is referring to Rousey’s latest fight against Cat Zingano. After just 14 seconds in the octagon, Rousey was able to get Zingano in her signature arm bar and force a tap out. One of the most dominating performances in a title fight in the history of the UFC.
Apparently, Flair wants his daughter to get a fight going with that. Not the smartest prediction out there. But Flair is hellbent on his daughter getting into the ring with her. WWE superstars are known for tooting their own horn, but that is typically in a scenario where the fight is staged and no one has the chance of getting hurt. I hope Flair realizes that UFC isn’t staged like the WWE is, and that his daughter might actually get embarrassed on national television.
Either way, I hope this happens for real. Rousey would absolutely destroy Charlotte in a fight. It’s always entertaining to watch those types of fights, especially when Ric Flair would inevitably eat his words afterwords. I’m predicting Rousey in seven seconds and that is my conservative estimate.
