Ronda Rousey congratulates UFC debutant Kay Hansen on armbar win

Former longtime UFC bantamweight champion and hall of famer Ronda Rousey has congratulated Kay Hansen for winning her UFC debut by submission.

Hansen (7-3) defeated Jinh Yu Frey by third-round submission on the prelims of UFC Vegas 4 this past weekend. The 20-year-old Hansen became the second-youngest fighter on the UFC roster when she was signed to the promotion last week from Invicta FC. Only featherweight Chase Hooper is younger, being born a month after Hansen.

Known her for highly skilled grappling abilities, Rousey was impressed with what she saw from Hansen as she congratulated her post-fight.
