Ronda Rousey may be an amazing UFC fighter but she isn’t the most likeable. After filming the “The Ultimate Fighter” fans got to see a pretty miserable version of Rousey, one that they certainly wouldn’t like. Rousey however sees fans opinions as being able to change at the drop of a dime and she decided to use Kim Kardashian as an example.

“How long ago was it that Kim Kardashian had d**ks in her mouth and now she’s selling my little sister shoes?” Rousey said during a media luncheon Thursday in Los Angeles. “Those examples are encouraging to me. There’s no permanent problems.”
Rousey might not care what people think of her now, but she’s not over how she believes she and her team was treated on the series, which she describes as “inhumane.”
“We were just really mistreated and really disrespected by the whole production staff and just everybody,” Rousey said. “We were instigated and manipulated to get the most dramatic response out of us possible.”
She said that the producers needed a villain and she was made to fit that role. It definitely came across that way. Rousey’s image and popularity took a hit from her performance on the show, so much so that she lost to rival coach Miesha Tate in the EA Sports UFC video game cover vote. That would never have happened prior to ‘The Ultimate Fighter.’
