Ronda Rousey is finally set to lead women’s MMA onto the UFC scene. The former Strikeforce champion and now UFC champion will make her Octagon debut at UFC 157 on Saturday, when she will put her new title on the line for the first time against Liz Carmouche.

No matter your views on this fight, it is a historical one for the UFC and MMA as a whole. A new page will be written in MMA chronicles in the UFC 157 main event, so let’s take a look at which fighter is most likely to cement a legacy for themselves.
