Holly Holm Should Have Her Own Beer To Commemorate Rousey KO
Ironically enough, Rousey was offered to host SNL just days after being knocked unconscious by Holly Holm at UFC 193. For the former Bantamweight champion, the decision to host was a no-brainer.
"My initial reaction was like, 'Yes, let's do it,'" Rousey told UFC.com, per Fox Sports. "I found out right after the fight and it was the first thing I was really thinking of doing besides eating ice cream and crying.
"It's really an honor to be able to like represent that position of being a female athlete. I just have to try to do my best job, so they'll want more of us to come back."

To be fair, not even the cast of SNL has been trying to do their best job lately, so there's no worries if Rousey falls flat on her face.
The show hasn't been funny enough in recent years for anyone to notice.
