Maybe Bethe Correia was an exception. But Ronda Rousey said Wednesday that she does not necessarily desire to hurt her opponents.
The UFC women's bantamweight champion said on ESPN's First Take that it's not necessarily about inflicting pain, just about winning in such devastating fashion that no one has any interest in a rematch.
"One of my favorite books ever is Ender's Game," Rousey said. "I was reading it when I was in the seventh grade. I read it like every year for several years. One of my favorite things in the book was, he wasn't a vicious person or anything like that, but in an effort to protect himself, every fight that he got into he had to win it in such an overwhelming way that he would win all of the future fights.
