A new racy video of Ronda Rousey emerged on the internet, courtesy of Sports Illustrated.
The undefeated women's bantamweight champion, who defeated Cat Zingano in just 14 seconds via a straight armbar at UFC 184 a few weeks ago, previously had a video and photo shoot for the 2015 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. Rousey has proved that she is not only the best pound-for-pound female mixed martial arts fighter in the sport, but is also easy on the eyes as she rocks a swimsuit.
Sports Illustrated featured her new bikini workout video, entitled "Ronda Rousey Uncovered", which lasts almost three minutes. TMZ reported that the UFC champ was wearing a bikini throughout and shared her experiences in and out of the Octagon as well as her excitement when she realized she was selected for the Swimsuit Edition. She said that she was just so thrilled and talking nonsense because it was a new experience and opportunity for her.
Fox Sports reported that Rousey was motivated to appear in the magazine because she wanted to show people that there should be no stereotypes as to the kind of body that a woman must have to be chosen for the SI swimsuit edition.
Rousey said, "I'm so happy to have this opportunity because I really do believe that there shouldn't just be one cookie-cutter body type that everyone is aspiring to be."
In the video, Rousey donned black bikinis and was featured strolling along the low waves at a beach. She revealed that the first shoot involved her sitting on top of a bar at sunset. There were also shoots at a swimming pool. At one point, she was topless, resting her chest on top of the bar outside of the lens's view.
Rousey said that she was somehow concerned at the freezing temperature and the fact that she was surrounded by expert photographers and crew members who were all looking at her. She said she had to hone her acting skills to fit the part well.
In the same video, Rousey said that when they moved on to shoot the martial arts part, she felt more comfortable. She was still clad in a black bikini as she executed martial arts poses and punches.
Daily Mail reported that Rousey also did the shoot with tennis star Caroline Wozniacki.
Rousey said, "The theme for this shoot was black and white so of course, I'm the black and nice, little Caroline has the white. We really got to kind of play that up. I love being the bad guy."
