It is none other than Ronda Rousey.

For as successful as he’s been in the Octagon, as well as promoting his fights outside of it, and as much of a braggadocio as he is about his star power, Conor McGregor is not the biggest star in the UFC.

“I know it seems like Miesha Tate got a bad break in this thing, but realistically when you look at it, Miesha has lost to her twice”.

MMA’s whirlwind star Ronda Rousey is all set to take the big screen by storm by starring in the reboot of Patrick Swayze’s cult classic film, 1989’s “Road House”.

Though White considered Tate as a number 1 contender, he still insisted on not letting Tate fight Rousey for the third time. She also gushed about watching Westerns while she was growing up and said she “loves Westerns”.

Road House” was originally released in the 1980’s and featured Swayze playing the role of a bouncer employed in an unruly bar in Missouri.

“I’m going to get a lot more acting experience before I tackle Road House“. According to her, the case would have been different had it been just the two of them.

Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Ronda Rousey has tucked another film project under her belt. She had a role in 2014’s The Expendables 3 and appeared in Furious 7 and Entourage. However, given that she’s such a big fan of the original movie, she’s understandably anxious about dissapointing fans. Sources say Rousey recently reached out to Swayze’s widow, Lisa Niemi, to ask for her blessing, which Niemi gladly gave.

The prevailing thought on Holm, 33, is that she could potentially be a legitimate challenger to Rousey, but not yet.

Rousey is expected to begin filming on the “Road House” project next year.
