There are a large number of people who are amazed at Ronda Rousey, bowing before the reigning Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Women's bantamweight champion's list of achievements. One of them is World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) superstar Brock Lesnar.

Lesnar was around during ESPN's WWE car wash and this was where the Beast Incarnate praised Rousey for what she has brought to the UFC circle.

Rousey has, of course, steamrolled over her opponents, most of whom she disposed in just seconds. Only three have been able to last longer than a minute with Rousey, a list that includes her next potential opponent, Miesha Tate.

"She is a man amongst women in the women's division. I take my hat off to her," says Lesnar in the said interview with ESPN

Rousey is currently cooling her heels after recently defeating Bethe Correia at UFC 190 held in Brazil. As usual, Rousey made quick work of Correia after unleashing a flurry of punches that eventually landed and knocked out the Pitbull.

Aside from Rousey's "super beast" performance in the UFC Octagon, Lesnar is also impressed at how the UFC champ is able to balance her commitments.

When not in the UFC scene, Rousey is also an active individual in Hollywood. She has already appeared in several films, including "The Expendables 3," "Furious 7," and Entourage; and the way she is able to divide her time is something that has drawn the admiration of the former UFC champion.

Lesnar is set to get it on with the Undertaker this coming Sunday at WWE SummerSlam at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York in what promises to be a highly physical confrontation.

Rousey on the, other hand, will reportedly get another fight this coming December; although there seems to be some cloud surrounding whom it will be with. Per the UFC, it will be a third meeting between Rousey and Tate; but that was before Cris 'Cyborg' Justino suddenly entered the mix.
