The most recognisable female athlete in the world?

Ronda Rousey is quickly becoming the most dominant and recognisable female athlete in the world.

UFC star Ronda Rousey's continued dominance is nearly unmatched.

Rousey has become the biggest name in UFC, with her latest destruction causing her worldwide popularity to rise, raising questions over whether she is the most recognisable - and most dominant - female athlete in the world.

Rousey knocked out latest opponent Bethe Correia in just 34 seconds, causing high-profile athletes and celebrities alike to react in awe.

Rousey has a record of 12-0, with her last three title defences lasting a combined 96 seconds - leading to comparisons to Mike Tyson.

There are few female athletes who can match Rousey for recognition and dominance, but one standout competitor could be Serena Williams - with the tennis star having won 21 Grand Slams, including four in a row.

However, if Rousey can keep capturing the sporting world's full-blown attention with continued dominant performances, the question may quickly become an after-thought.
