Ronda Rousey’s drive to be the best was drilled into her at a very early age.
As a child, Rousey dreamed of being an all-star swimmer before inevitably following in her mother’s footsteps, becoming one of the best judokas in the world and capturing a bronze medal at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. For many, earning an Olympic medal is the culmination of a lifelong dream. But for Rousey, it was only the beginning.
Making the move to MMA, ‘Rowdy’ would see her star rise practically overnight.
