QUOTES BY Ronda Rousey


I'm unbelievably ticklish. When I was a little kid, my sisters would hold me down and tickle me until I peed my pants.

I just want to tailgate, drink beer, and hang out in the middle of nowhere in a pick-up truck. That's my ideal date.

People say to me all the time, 'You have no fear.' I tell them, 'No, that's not true. I'm scared all the time. You have to have fear in order to have courage. I'm a courageous person because I'm a scared person.'

There are so many ridiculous arguments that MMA is somehow anti-woman.

I think it's hilarious if people say that my body looks masculine.

You go through every single inch of the emotional spectrum on fight week. You're the most stressed out you've ever been, you're the most pressured you've ever been, you're the happiest you've ever been - it's hard. It's exhausting.

I love waking up to Sunday morning pancakes. The whole process of making them, just out in the kitchen together making pancakes on a Sunday morning; that's an experience every girl should have.

I like quoting 'Lord of the Rings': 'My list of allies grows thin! My list of enemies grows long!'

I wear sunglasses almost all the time outside - not because I think I'm really, really cool, but because of the rays.
