Ronda Rousey, the face of women's MMA, has already shown a little more skin than that when she appeared in last year's ESPN The Magazine's "The Body" issue, but is making it clear she has ruled out taking it all off for any publications like Playboy.
The 26-year-old claims no official offer has been made to the wildly popular UFC Women's champion, but Rousey recently told HBO Real Sports that even a huge payday couldn't get her to doff her clothes for the cameras.
"No one should be able to see my cash and prizes for $5, okay?" she said. "I don't care how much money they gave me."
Rousey — the undefeated bantamweight with a trash-talking mouth and devastating armbar — said she did the ESPN shoot to help promote herself and women's MMA.
"It wasn't like it was Playboy," said Rousey of the artistic shots of her body. "If you want exposure, you have to expose yourself, to some extent."
Rousey's growing success in the octagon and loyal male fanbase have made her a odd sort of sex symbol — though she is reluctant to admit it.
"I don't really see myself as a sex symbol because ever since people have started calling me a sex symbol, I haven't had a lot of sex in my life," she revealed. "Like, it's just, it's not really working out great for me."
I bet there are a lot of smitten fans who would disagree.
GOOD FOR HER
ReplyDeletewait till she hits the wall. she'll come around.that's how famous chicks work this. once their marketability starts to fade they do the cash grab. shell be doing nude mags by age 35. nothing against her, i'm sure people will still be more than willing to pay her for it. more power to her.
ReplyDeleteShe won't pose now or even after she "hits the wall". After fighting no one will remember her. She's 26, do you really think she'll be around in 9 years to collect on a payday for posing nude? By then, I would hope she was well on her way to someting more promising. Besides, this is all speculation...why did I even comment???

ReplyDeleteI think you just like to use the word 'skank'. She looks fine to me.
ReplyDeleteShe'll be nude within a year. All Playboy has to do is offer the right price.
ReplyDeleteHey Dumb Asses... She wants to be known for her AMAZING MMA SKILLS. She'll never submit to Playboy or any other..She DOES have a lot of class!
ReplyDeleteYo, class and MMA should not be used in the same sentance!
