DW on Rousey: “She’s a real fighter”

Why the change of heart? White tells “Inside MMA’s” Ron Kruck that the move had everything to do with Rousey, herself:
“Ronda Rousey. Watching her, meeting her, knowing her. From the outside, she’s this beautiful girl who won a bronze medal in the Olympics and everything else, but when you talk to Ronda Rousey, and you get to know her, she’s a Diaz brother, inside. She’s a real fighter, and that’s what I look for in anybody, whether you’re a male or a female. She’s nasty. She’s mean. She likes to fight, and she likes to finish people. Those are the kind of people I like, whether you’re a male or a female.”
Recently, White stated that he believes “Cyborg” doesn’t want to fight Rousey. When prompted, once again, he was sticking to his guns:
“I think the issue is that it’s pretty clear that ‘Cyborg’ doesn’t want this fight. I’m trying out this 135 pound division. I think that the division is stacked enough where she has some serious opposition ahead of her. But, that’s it. I’m trying out this 135 pound division.”
