Even with their media exposure, Ronda Rousey takes pleasure in getting one over on her rival Miesha Tate . The UFC women’s bantamweight champion said an ESPN story on female athletes and breasts wasn’t just exciting because she was quoted, but because she got more copy than Tate. “Know why it was so awesome?” Rousey asked MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “Because it was the ‘Body Issue,’ and my picture with clothes on was bigger than Miesha’s naked picture, and my article quoted me more than her little snippet.” In the story, Rousey, a bronze medal winner in judo at the 2008 Olympics, spoke colorfully about about grappling with her own body as she fought Liz Carmouche at UFC 157, which was the first UFC pay-per-view event to feature female headliners.
