Pacquiao was asked about Rousey's comments that she could win an MMA fight against unbeaten boxer Floyd Mayweather. He seemed confident in Rousey's abilities, saying "I believe so, she's strong. Strong enough to beat Floyd Mayweather in MMA," Pacquiao said.

- UFC.com just released an interview with current roster member and former WWE Champion CM Punk, just days before he walks teammate Anthony Pettis to the cage at UFC 185. Punk talked about his already busy schedule and how he's adapting to comic book writing.
Punk also said there's no timetable on his first UFC fight:
"Obviously we don't even have a date for my fight yet, so that's my priority, and it's cliché and it's cheesy, but the world is my oyster," Punk said. "I want to do everything: TV, movies, Broadway because that looks like a ton of fun. I want to experience everything that's new and different, and if something scares me, I want to tackle it head-on."
