Ronda Rousey

Ronda Rousey seems to have an infatuation with submissions ... arm bars, to be exact.The former Olympic Judo medalist began her amateur mixed martial arts (MMA) career with three straight wins via arm bar, all in less than one minute. She then continued her professional MMA career with four consecutive victories, again in less than one minute, again via arm bar.

Stepping into the Strikeforce Hexagon this past weekend (Mar. 3, 2012) at the Strikeforce: "Tate vs. Rousey" event, she undoubtedly faced her toughest opponent to date in Miesha Tate. However, it was apparently business as usual as she defeated "Takedown" to capture the Strikeforce women's 135-pound title. This time, it took longer than one minute, but it ended the same way her other fights did, which is via first round arm bar.

Tate was able to hang on from an attempted submission from the former Olympian early on, however, the second attempt was latched on tight, and this time, "Rowdy" did not let up until "Takedown" eventually tapped.

Taking a page from Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Heavyweight champion Frank Mir, the newly crowned Strikeforce Bantamweight champion says she will hold on to a submission until she feels a tap, even if she hears a snap.

At least that's what she said today as she appeared on "The MMA Hour."Check out her comments about the gruesome arm bar and what she thinks about facing Miesha Tate's boyfriend, UFC fighter, Bryan Caraway, after the jump.

Ronda Rousey is always making news. Whether she’s beating three men on a Japanese game show, or simply being MMA’s hottest fighter, Rousey will always be in the spotlight.
She is also a tweet queen. Case in point: Rousey sent this text exchange out on Twitter, in which she absolutely pwns her ex-boyfriend or ex-lover (or both).
Ronda rousey tweeted: “Okay … Couldn’t help tweeting this cause it felt too damn good sending this message to not share it”
