Ronda Rousey Recalls Bloody Injury [PHOTO] Before First Professional Fight in New Book

Every story from Ronda Rousey's new book My Fight / Your Fight has been causing a stir for both MMA fans and media outlets alike. The biggest story coming out of it was one about an ex-boyfriend who secretely took candid pictures of her while she wasn't looking. That was but one story though. Another Rousey tale currently making the rounds is an injury she sustained before her first professional fight. According to Rousey, it was a bloody mess.

In her book, Rousey said the messy injury took place when her roommate's sixty-pound Pitbull was attacked by her dog, Mochi. In attempt to break them up Rousey kicked Mochi in the stomach. Her dog responded by bitting her once on the foot and on the chin. The bite tore threw her skin and went into her muscle.

"I collapsed on the living room floor and pulled off my sock," Rousey wrote in her book. "There was a hole in the arch of my foot. Flesh was hanging off the base of my toes. A split second later, blood filled the holes and started gushing onto the carpet. I grabbed my cell phone off the floor where it had fallen during the chaos and dialed Darin's number. I needed to go a doctor and I needed for nobody to know about it."

Not long after getting bit Rousey found herself in the waiting room of a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon that gave botox and boob jobs to wealthy women in Beverly Hills. Going in, Rousey was nervous about whether the injury would be permanent if she fought on the stitches and after the doctor reviewed it, she received the good news that it wouldn't.

"Well, no. I mean, you'll rip the stitches, and it'll take longer to heal, but you're not going to do any permanent damage," the doctor said.

The doctor told Rousey to win as quickly as she could and that was what Rousey did. She took her opponent down within 25 seconds. On one foot her professional record was 1-0.

"A week after my win, I took nail clippers and cut the stitches out of my foot. The doctor had been right; the scar was noticeable. I thought it looked badass. I was ready for another fight," Rousey wrote.
