UFC Bantamweight Champ Ronda Rousey Named to Fortune’s ’40 Under 40’ List

Another week, another honor for UFC bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey.

Fortune on Thursday revealed it’s ”40 under 40” list, a compilation of some of the most influential people in business under the age of 40. While Fortune once based its rankings entirely on financial wealth, it now also accounts for “achievements, ambition and influence.” The list is selected by a number of Fortune staff members including reporters, writers and editors.

Rousey joins the likes of singer Taylor Swift, actress Jessica Alba, and HBO host John Oliver on the list. “Rowdy” is the only professional athlete to make the 40 under 40.
