UFC women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey does not believe for one second that her upcoming acting roles will distract her from focusing on her fighting career. But Rousey admits she thinks the clock could be ticking on her time in the cage. "I said from the beginning that I wok in quadrennials," Rousey told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). "I do four-year cycles. I think I've got two years left in me, realistically, if I'm going to do this like an Olympic run." Rousey (7-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) has fought just once for the UFC, but she's become a full-fledged superstar for the company. She was recently in Seattle as the face of the partnership between the UFC and the promotion's official wireless provider, MetroPCS. Then it was off to Los Angeles, New York and Chicago as part of the UFC World Tour 2013, where she and Miesha Tate (13-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC) helped promote their upcoming UFC 168 clash. Along the way, it was revealed she would be on the cover of Maxim, that she had been cast in "The Expendables 3" and that she might take a spot in "Fast and Furious 7," as well. But before that whirlwind tour began, Rousey had taken a self-imposed cross-country road trip, helping a friend relocate from the East Coast to the West. "I just had 50 hours of driving to reflect, which is one of the reasons I love road trips so much because no one can f--- with me, and I can just talk and organize my thoughts and think," Rousey said. "I've got a lot of stuff coming up that I can't talk to you about." |
