We never thought that we’d see the term “camel toe” grace the SportsJOE website but there’s a first time for everything.
The vast majority of fighters on the UFC roster are males who never have to worry about anything other than the fight ahead of them.
There is a unique concern, though, that women in MMA have to deal with and it comes from the world of wardrobe malfunctions which, we must admit, is pretty foreign to us.
The world’s best female fighter, Ronda Rousey, has discussed her past experiences with almost accidentally revealing more than intended mid-fight.
Speaking to Rolling Stone, the UFC women’s bantamweight champion said:
“At one point, I was perilously close to showing everyone my nipples, so the second I got her off my back, my mind shifted to ‘Cover yourself up, girl!’ And when Liz saw that, she kicked me right in the chest. Which she was entirely right to do. I would have done it if I was her.”
The shorts that the ladies wear are also a cause for concern among the female fighters and Rousey has also had some problems in that area.
“The first Miesha fight, she got her hooks in from behind, and I was like, ‘Oh, I can get out of here easy.’ But if I did, I would flash everyone, so I had to figure out a way to pull her feet out where my business was facing down, not facing the world.
“And then I have a phobia about camel toe. I swear to God, every time after I win, even before I take my mouth guard out, I pull my shorts down, and it’s because I have a phobia of high-def camel toe, people zooming in on the Internet and everything. It’s always, first thing, fix the camel toe!”
So Conor, Cain and Co. you can consider yourselves lucky.
