The Swimsuit Issue has a lot more [of a] sexual side to it, while I don’t believe the Body Issue is overtly sexual whereas Sports Illustrated is,” said Rousey. “The difference in how I approached it is when I presented for ESPN Body, I truly tried to be a lot more cut and a lot more close to my prime fighting shape due to the fact that I was being photographed as a boxer and attempting to look more like a competitor.”.
Rousey continued, “I intentionally tried to get a little bit heavier for the SI issue so I was a little bit curvier and not in leading battle shape look but the take a look at which I feel I’m the most appealing. It’s really natural for an individual’s body to go through periods.”.
