Couture eager to work with Rousey, film or fighting

UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is set to multitask like a beast, simultaneously training for her fight with Miesha Tate at UFC 168 on Dec 28, and filming for The Expendables 3 in Bulgaria.

Rousey’s role in the Sylvester Stallone scripted film is not minor. with, according to MMAJunkie, appearances in over 20 scenes, with 35 lines of dialogue (plus presumably a great deal od beating up and killing bad guys). Rousey plays an athletic bartender named Luna, something she is familiar with as, following her medal-winning effort representing the USA in Olympic Judo, Rousey worked as a bartender, before determining upon a career in MMA.

As difficult as it might be to move a training camp to Bulgaria and sandwich it between shots, co star and UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture is prepared to help.

I would be happy in both the film genre and the fight front to work with Ronda,” said Couture. “She’s a very exciting fighter, hugely talented, and she’s got a bright, bright future ahead of her… Hopefully time will permit and we’ll have a chance to get on the mat, and we’ll see if she can Armbar me.
