- Ronda Rousey is on a media tour to promote both her new book as well as Entourage. During one of the interviews, she was asked if she would fight Floyd Mayweather, a topic which has been discussed hypothetically for months. Rousey had choice words for Mayweather.

"I don't think that me and him would ever fight unless we ended up dating," Rousey said, citing Mayweather's past with domestic abuse.

- Speaking of Ronda Rousey, UFC President Dana White turned heads when he spoke about Rousey fighting Cris "Cyborg" Justino, and breaking the UFC's PPV record.

"I think that's why the fight is so exciting. There's no denying Cyborg is a beast and many people, including me, think that Ronda is the best in the world and the best female fighter ever. It's one of those fights that's very intriguing," said White on The Jim Rome Show. "When that fight happens, I guarantee that thing does over 2 million pay-per-view buys."
