When it comes to women’s MMA Ronda Rousey is the first name that comes to anyone’s mind. Rousey is a combat sports legend and has proved herself in MMA and pro wrestling. Fans love to see the former UFC champion compete inside the octagon and destroy his opponents inside the WWE ring.
However, Rousey once revealed her fantasy sport, and it was far from mixed martial arts.

In 2016, on a segment of Draft Kings called Face 2 Face, Ronda Rousey sat with the American football player Odell Beckham Jr. In the episode, they were asked a few rapid-fire questions, including what was their favorite fantasy sport.
Surprisingly, the six-time UFC champion had not one but three different favorite fantasy sports. All seemed bizarre and far from MMA. Even the Louisiana native Beckham Jr. was in awe after listening to her answer.
Rousey said, “My favorite fantasy sport would be dodgeball with lasers. I always wish that they would, you know, create that. I fantasize on it like every day. You know dodgeball with lasers, fantasy sport for me.”
“Also, underwater fighting. You know Muhammad Ali’s picture where he is like under the water doing that. I wanna do that for real with somebody else there to go after…” she added.
“I keep seeing these things, these surfers punching sharks; I wanna know how it really works out. One person, one shark, one pool. Like bullfighting but with sharks. That’s my fantasy sport,” Rousey concluded.
Ronda Rousey once commented about Floyd Mayweather
The former UFC champion once shocked the fight community with her point-blank thoughts about the boxing legend Floyd Mayweather. Back in 2018, when Mayweather revealed plans for competing in MMA, ‘Rowdy’ shared her opinion on it.

In an interview, she stated that ‘TBE’ wanting to compete in MMA is ‘all talk’ and it will never actually happen. Apparently, it has been four years since Rousey said this and it turned about to be true as ‘Money’ hasn’t entered the octagon yet.
