Ronda Rousey "Proud" To Be A Part of Reebok Deal
LeBell spoke to Submission Radio this week in an hour-long interview, covering a wide range of topics from Bruce Lee to Jimmy Kimmel. During the Q&A, the fighter whom LeBell raved the most about was "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey, specifically for her ability to hold her own in the ring against the boys.
LeBell said he's witnessed Rousey's talent first-hand.
"When she comes down to our place, which is in North Hollywood California, she does damn good with the men," he said. "And when you fight her you don't have to be nice, I mean if you're a man. She'll break you up if she feels like it. She's got a good attitude. And when I say a good attitude, she's sadistic. And that I like."
