Five years ago, Ronda Rousey was a little-known Olympic bronze medalist in Judo who was getting her first taste of professional MMA with small time promotions like Hard Knocks Fighting and King of the Cage. At the time, she also lived like a hobo.

Sure, it looks like shit, but it’s a representation of where she came from and a time in her life when fighting was the only thing that mattered. Cleanliness, certainly didn’t. “I don’t know how we haven’t come up with a new strain of cholera, or something,” she says in the clip.
