Rousey recently won ESPN’s “Best Fighter” award at the ESPYs, a category which Golovkin was also nominated for. “Rowdy” also took home the “Best Female Athlete” award. Golovkin believes no one was more deserving of the distinctions and said Rousey is worth of all the praise she’s received.
“I know her; we’ve been training maybe two, three times together in boxing gym,” Golovkin told MMAjunkie. “She is nice lady. She’s great athlete. She’s the best female athlete in the world. She’s a beautiful lady and beautiful person. I like her. She’s tough.”
Golovkin said he was impressed by the boxing technique Rousey displayed in the contest.
“She’s good,” Golovkin said. “Beautiful performance. She has great technical (skills).”
