Is it fair to say Rousey is to MMA what Nick Anderson was to the NBA?
“I’m still grieving the person that could have won it all,” Rousey recently said in an emotional interview with TIME, which included the MMA star on its annual list of the world’s 100 most influential people. “But I have to live up to the fact that I’m not her. That’s just who I’d like to be, and instead I’m what I need to be for myself and everyone else.”
“You have to go through those stages of acceptance and renewed optimism,” Rousey said. “You need to find that doe-eyed part of you that walked into an arena the first time and saw all the lights and thought, like, ‘One day that’s going to be me, that’s going to have my name up there. One day I’m going to slap my stomach and I’m going to feel there’s metal under there,’ you know? That’s what I need to find again.”
