Ronda Rousey
Ronda Rousey has been the most prominent figure in women’s combat sports since she clinched an Olympic bronze medal in judo at the 2008 Summer Games. She transitioned to professional mixed martial arts in 2011 and impressively won her first 12 consecutive fights, including successfully defending her UFC Bantamweight title belt six times.
In a shocking turn of events, Rousey defeated Holly Holm in 2015. Nevertheless, she has since transcended her status beyond the UFC. Rousey ventured into supporting roles in action movies, appearing in “The Expendables 3” and “Furious 7.” She also played herself in the TV series “Entourage.”
