Bantamviktsmästarinnan Ronda Rousey är inte enbart en UFC-fighter, hon medverkar även i filmer och gör reklam för alla möjliga produkter. Vid ett antal tillfällen har det hänt att hennes vikt kommit på tal, med det är något som Ronda vägrar tolerera längre.
Detta hade Rousey att säga, via ”New York Times”:
Because somebody said something really rude to me, I came into the shoot purposely way heavier. And the campaign ended up being amazing, even though I was heavier just to make a point.
I swear to God. If anyone calls me fat one more time in my life, I’m going to kill them.
If I can represent that body type of women that isn’t represented so much in media, then I’d be happy to do that.
We seem to be in this conflicting era for women, where women are doing so amazingly and taking over the athletic world, but we’re also in a time where… How can I really put it? That women without any skills that freeload are being glorified. That’s something I was raised not to be. That you’re supposed to contribute to the world, not consume from it.
Härnäst kommer Ronda att ta sig an Holly Holm, då de möts under UFC 193 den 15 november.
