Everything that comes out of Ronda Rousey’s mouth these days seems to be more entertaining than the last. As she’s been making the rounds promoting her book and talking about her upcoming fight with Bethe Correia on August 1st at UFC 190, there has been no shortage of interesting and funny quotes.
Hell, even Shaq got into the act on Inside the NBA this week (even if he didn’t realize what he was saying).
From joking about fighting Floyd Mayweather to using an alter ego on Tinder to try to get laid to the nude photos one of her ex-boyfriends took of her, Rousey has been dropping one gem after another.
But none may be more memorable than her quote in the new issue of Rolling Stone about her “phobia of high-def camel toe.”
“At one point, I was perilously close to showing everyone my nipples, so the second I got [Liz Carmouche] off my back, my mind shifted to ‘Cover yourself up, girl!’ And when Liz saw that, she kicked me right in the chest. Which she was entirely right to do. I would have done it if I was her.”
And then there are the shorts the girls wear, just the way they ride up. “The first Miesha fight, she got her hooks in from behind, and I was like, ‘Oh, I can get out of here easy.’ But if I did, I would flash everyone, so I had to figure out a way to pull her feet out where my business was facing down, not facing the world.” She giggles. “And then I have a phobia about camel toe. I swear to God, every time after I win, even before I take my mouth guard out, I pull my shorts down, and it’s because I have a phobia of high-def camel toe, people zooming in on the Internet and everything. It’s always, first thing, fix the camel toe!”
We’d heard the story about her near nip-slip before, but the camel toe worry is definitely a new one. Luckily for her, she says that she’s been working with Reebok on an anti-camel toe outfit she can wear in the Octagon so she can be even MORE focused. Scary thought.
