I'm a big fan of Ronda Rousey so I was really excited to read this book. Biographies and Autobiogrpahies are not what I usually read but I enjoyed this book so much! Ronda Rousey is such a powerful woman and a inspiration to us all. I really loved reading about her story and rise to power.
It is a nice, easy enough read.
I really enjoyed the specific narrative about the day of the fight, from the point of waking up to the point of entering the right. That seemed most interesting.
With the presence of Rousey in modern media, I felt like I had a grasp on the general narrative. It was nice to humanize her with the inclusion of a love life (not even hinted at in public), shit that scares her, her time as a three job hustler.
I think it is a nice read.

As a strong believer in the utter heart of Ronda Rousey, this book is fantastic. A deep and personal insight into the female icon that Rousey has made herself. Ronda makes a clear point of making sure the reader understands every grueling mountain she had to hurtle to make her way to the top. A fantastic read for fans of the inspirational woman and a required read for ones who aren't.
The only time I didn't read this book in the 20 hours it took to finish is when I was sleeping.
I was so excited to get this book to read! Ronda went from being some judo fighter to one of the most recognized MMA fighters in UFC history. She shows the determination, drive and empowerment a person needs to succeed.
Dana White boldly stated 'Never' when asked if woman would fight in the UFC and now ate his words a bit but is probably beyond proud of her accomplishments in the UFC.
I absolutely idolize this woman and I am so proud of where she came from to where she is today.

funny
informative
fast-paced
Really interesting look into her life and her rise to fame
I finished this book overnight, and have no regrets concerning my lack of sleep. This was a powerhouse of a biography, for a powerhouse of a woman. Rousey is strong and has a story that I, as well as many other young women I am sure can relate to greatly.
Ronda Rousey is a stone cold bitch and I love. I couldn't put the book down I could just feel her intensity through each page. Hands down would recommend.
Her and her sister, Maria Burns Ortiz, a co-author of the book created a fantastic and very inspiring book that will help get to know "the most dangerous unarmed woman in the world" and Sports Illustrated most dominant athlete in a candid way. Easy to read book with many short chapters that will entertain from start to finish.
In almost in chronological order starting with details from her birth--born with the umbilical cord wrapped to her neck--to her early childhood with communication issue, how her father's suicide impacted her, the intense Judo training she endure and the obsession to become the best Judo in the world and her early MMA career transition into the UFC. I suggest anyone and everyone to read the book as it is a memior and it's like a inspirational self-help book. A wonderful book that I will re-read time and time again. She is the definition of the word "Badass".
