Rousey speaks, on the cover of ESPN The Magazine

December 7, 2015 by Jason Cruz 1 Comment

Despite her loss at UFC 193, Ronda Rousey is on the cover of ESPN The Magazine.  The ex-champ gave her first interview after losing her title to Holly Holm.

In lead-up to the release of the magazine Tuesday, portions of the interview were released on People.com.  She indicated that she was sad and that her teeth were loosened during the fight with Holm.

She lost. But she brilliantly conquered 2015. @RondaRousey rocks the cover of our #IdeasOfTheYear issue out on 12/8 pic.twitter.com/5Cyeu8bmBg

Payout Perspective:

The cover reflects the popularity of Rousey but also the fact that the feature was probably predetermined prior to November 14th.  As for Rousey, it’s clear that she wants to fight again and a rematch should be bigger than the lofty PPV estimates of UFC 193.

    Why did she have to crap so much after the fight and why is the fact she used a whole role of toilet paper crapping in the woods in one day. Surprising if for no other reason than I thought Holly beat all the crap out of her in the ring. Haha.
