As an MMA figher, Budd has only lost twice in her career. The fighters who beat her? Ronda Rousey and Amanda Nunes in their pre-UFC days. With knockout power and real slipperiness in the ring, Budd is the favorite against Rubin, a spry grappler with a good enough right hand to cause Budd some real problems if she connects early in the fight.
