:agreed: that's pretty cool. another million+ buys guaranteed, imo.

I wish they could do one for Robbie Lawler and Carlos Condit just growing up kind of chill and ordinary with this insatiable bloodlust looming underneath but that wouldn't make a very cinematic promo.

How is Ronda going to be able to deal with being the star of a hollywood production about her life if being misrepresented on TUF drove her mad for a while? Somehow I doubt it's going to be a zach snyder/watchmen style recreation of the boom.

She's had a few years of spending time on real Hollywood sets and getting used to the constant media attention. She's definitely gotten a lot better at presenting herself to the public. Plus the reality TV format almost never makes anyone look good. Add into that Meisha Tate and her crew openly trying to provoke her camp into doing something stupid and it's no wonder she hated TUF. These days she's friends with people like the Rock and Vin Diesel and they've probably shown her a lot of the ropes to staying relatively sane with that kind of attention.

She was talking to Rogan or somebody about how she would have walked off that show if it wasn't for the fighters and she felt trapped. I'm guessing they weren't exactly being demanding of her schedule for FAST FURIOSO.

Starring in your own biopic sounds like TUF on steroids.

Edit : redditor is probably right, its been a while since then and TUF is probably produced by lame people.

Those girls they had to play young Rousey look so much like her it's unreal.

It's cool that Ronda got Holly Holm an acting gig to help her out after the fight but I don't think murder victim is a good first role to have on the resume.

I'd swear one of the younger versions of Ronda had to be her younger sister. They look a lot alike.

And Intel the whole model for reality tv is to exploit everyone with a camera seeing everything. Ronda's been pretty open about being emotional but there is that and then there is some dude in sweatpants holding a camera shoving a lense in your face while you cry. I remember a shot in TUF where one of the cameras found Roxy curled up behind a wall in the garden because nowhere else in the house was private and the dude just hovers.

According to Firas Zahabi, GSP was walking at 185 for most of his career but towards the end they put specific work in to putting on more muscle, and around the time he fought shields he was 195 or so.

GSP is also probably way more assiduous than most fighters about working out and staying lean in between camps.
