UFC Bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey can be considered a global phenomenon, especially since she remains to be undefeated and has currently starred in several Hollywood flicks. With her stardom, fans, and even experts, are dying to learn the secrets to her success and fortunately, Ronda is more than willing to share some tips.

Women's Health Magazine reports that Rousey credits getting lots of sex before a fight to keep her testosterone levels spiked up. The undefeated champ shares it helps her become a more aggressive fighter, which often leads to victories in a short period of time.

This is in contrast to what most male athletes and fighters do. Muhammad Ali once stated he went six weeks without doing the deed because he wants to concentrate on his fight. Soccer players don't do it too, even banning their players from having sex; just ask Mexico's coach Miguel Herrera. Well, for the record, no research has backed up this claim, and Rousey won all her fights so it probably worked for her.

Speaking of fights, Rousey's next one will be this coming November 14 and it will be against Holly Holm, The Huffington Post writes. Due to her phenomenal success, this fight is set to break a UFC record in terms of viewers and attendees. Tickets for the highly-anticipated fight sold like hotcakes the moment it opened.

The Ethad Stadium in Melbourne is said to have a capacity of 55,000 but the organizers are adding 15,000 more seats to accommodate everyone. Of course, the rise in tickets meant a rise in compensation and because of her popularity, with Rousey being a leading UFC fighter in terms of wins and salary. This is probably the reason why the fighter had the guts to state that she makes more than what Floyd Mayweather earns per second.

However, although the Rousey-Holm fight is already set to happen, Miesha Tate still has a lot to say about the UFC, saying she's fed up with it as she has earned the right to be Rousey's next fight contender, Yahoo! Sports reports. After her win against Jessica Eye, it should have been a guaranteed title shot against Rousey but UFC president Dana White had other plans.

White's press release reveals that he made his decision with Tate's career in mind. Of course, this made Tate angrier, but at least she learned a valuable lesson: put everything in writing. The fighter states her career is now in an awkward stage and she doesn't know which way to go but, she still hopes to face her arch-nemesis, Rousey, someday.
