It tends to be a two-horse race when discussing the biggest draw in the UFC.
The pendulum swings Ronda Rousey's way in the build-up to her fights before being magnetically pulled to the Conor McGregor side as he hypes his.
Many believed that Rousey's beaming star had faded when she was knocked out by Holly Holm in the main event of UFC 193 last November but UFC president Dana White maintains that 'Rowdy' is still his biggest superstar but that McGregor is fast approaching her place on the mantel.
"Ronda means a lot to the UFC and to this sport,"
White told Yahoo! Sports (
via MMA Mania). "As in everything. Everything this woman does. She's incredible! She's an unbelievable athlete, personality, friend, partner, you name it. Ronda Rousey is amazing."
"You know ... I think Ronda Rousey is the biggest star in the UFC," White said. "But let me tell you what, Conor McGregor is nipping at her heels."
