Ronda Rousey’s fight with Holly Holm at UFC 193 is a month away and the promotional wheels are already turning hard to make their match the largest fight in UFC history. The event is being held at the 90,000 person Etihad Stadium in Melbourne Australia, and if the UFC manages to fill it they’ll blow away the previous 70,000 person attendance record held by Japanese promotion PRIDE.
A couple more promos like the one you can watch above and they just might do it. The video dramatizes the rise of Ronda Rousey from lil tyke watching her mom teach judo to troublesome teenager getting into fights to badass cage fighter. Seems like they’re skipping over something in between those last two steps though … what else did Ronda do? What else? Oh yeah! She won a bronze medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
If you’re impressed at how similar teenage Ronda is in appearance to real Ronda, there’s a reason for that: her actual little sister Julia De Mars is the one playing her in this promo. Also featured in the commercial: Ronda’s real mother, who is a legit badass in her own right. It’s a powerful promo and just another sign the UFC is pulling out all the stops to make Ronda Rousey an even bigger star than she already is.
