Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt is a scary dude on the gridiron, so it makes sense that he would be supporting UFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey, arguably the most intimidating athlete in sports.

With Rousey set to defend her title against Holly Holm at UFC 193 Saturday night in Melbourne, Australia, the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year made it clear whom he’s rooting for, sending out a picture of himself on Instagram donning a shirt depicting the champ.
