Ronda Rousey Next Fight: What Opponent Next For The Unbeatable UFC Champion? [VIDEO]

Ronda Rousey continued her Mike Tyson-like dominance of women's MMA, needing just 14 seconds to dispatch Cat Zingano in the headliner fight of Saturday's UFC 184.

Zingano was supposed to be "Rowdy" Ronda's most dangerous opponent yet, but she was plain steamrolled. Almost immediately -- perhaps because the fight literally went down in the blink of an eye -- speculation has now turned to what's next for Rousey.

Here are a few potential options:

Holm Holm
The former boxer made her UFC debut on Saturday's undercard, and she's probably the second biggest name in the women's sport besides Rousey. A potential showdown between the two would bring big ratings. However, the consensus is that Holm would need a few more fights before she's ready for the champ.

Cyborg
This match-up would have a lot of juicy pre-fight drama, given that Rousey has been scathing in her public criticism of Cris "Cyborg" Justino, ripping her for her failed PED tests and claiming that she'd "kill" her with her bare hands. A win here would probably cement Rousey's legacy as the all time best.

Pursue Something Other Than UFC
However, whether Rousey even needs to add to her legacy is up for debate. Just look at these numbers, per The Huffington Post's Jordan Schultz:


Rousey has nothing left to prove in mixed martial arts. She could walk away from the sport right now utterly on top, and her star wattage has never been brighter. She's already been in last year's Expendables III, and will make appearances in the seventh Fast and Furious film, as well as the Entourage movie. Perhaps she might want to pursue a Hollywood career full time.
