Ronda Rousey To Marine Corps Ball

เพิ่มคำอธิบายภาพ

When Ronda Rousey's fight against Holly Holm was moved up to Nov. 14, her schedule freed up for a date.

Rousey, in a video posted by TMZ, accepted an invite to the Marine Corps Ball when one of her biggest fans, Jarrod Haschert, a Marine stationed in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, sent her an invite in a video posted to Facebook that had been seen more than 4.8 million times.

"You are my celebrity crush, like, I love everything you do and I think that you are a phenomenal person," Haschert said in his video, "which is why it would be my honor to take you to the Marine Corps Ball on December 11th. I really hope this doesn't get in the way of your training ... but I hope you take this in consideration, because if you do, you will truly be making my dream come true."

Rousey saw the video and told TMZ she would gladly accept the invite, but didn't have a way of getting in contact with him.

"Do I call him, do I set up a time and place like 'Never Been Kissed' and just show up and have him waiting there?" Rousey said.

If anyone was wondering, Haschert, 22, is her type -- "Yeah, he's cute," Rousey, 28, said -- but he won't be able to treat Rousey like a "Do nothing b----", that's for sure.

"He's gotta be a gentleman," Rousey said. "I'm not a first-date kind of girl, but we'll see when I meet him."

Roddy Piper & Ronda Rousey

Roddy Piper & Ronda Rousey

MMA fighter Ronda Rousey dedicated her UFC 190 win against Bethe Correia to the late “Rowdy” Roddy Piper. The WWE legend, who died Thursday at the age of 61, was a major influence on her, and she had some touching words to send his way.

“I just want to say we lost a really close friend, ‘Rowdy’ Roddy Piper, who gave me permission to use his name as a fighter,” she said. “So I hope him and my dad had a good time watching this today.”

Piper trained under Gene LeBell, Rousey’s mentor who plucked her out of the Judo circuit as a rising star. When Rousey moved into the world of mixed martial arts, LeBell asked Piper if she could use his nickname, “Rowdy,” in the ring. With his blessing, she became “Rowdy” Ronda Rousey, and the rest is history.

Rousey heard the news of Piper’s death less than 24 hours before she weighed in for the UFC 190 match. During this mixed time of heavy emotion and high stress, the athlete wrote a brief but heartfelt tribute to Piper on Instagram. “Thank you for the name…and so much more,” she wrote. “Will do it justice and do you proud tomorrow… This one’s for you Roddy…”

She came through on her word. Rousey struck down Correia in a 34-second bout during the first round, and she ultimately maintained the batamweight championship belt. You can watch video of her tribute to Piper.
