Who can argue with credentials like hers? She was raised and trained by her mother that was an international Judo champ in her day and obviously, Ma Ma taught her student well.
Her pugilistic skill are so honed to perfection that they have catapulted her to the cover of Men’s Fitness magazine in Australia shooting down a lot of their blokes. I can bet they are pissed. Better lock up all the Kangaroos tonight, they may be in jeopardy or maybe not.

Personally; I do acknowledge all of Rhonda’s accomplishment on the mat. There hasn’t been anyone like her before and probably won’t be anyone like her in the near future. The lady is a machine. But I don’t think she or any other women should be on the cover of a mans magazine. You know; it is the male chauvinist pig thing.
If Rhonda’s Ma Ma and the Judo guy would want to roll around with each-other for a few rounds, possibly the USA and Russia can reestablish their relationship.
I don’t thing that Val (that is what his close friends call him) would consent to such an exhibition. It wouldn’t look good on his EGO sheet if he was bounced by an American women.
Always get your opponent off balance and keep them there.
