Ronda Rousey Might Join Jennifer Lawrence in the Next Hunger Games Movie

All, Movies, UFC Stephen Douglas February 26th. 2013, 11:33am

Ronda Rousey could be in the next Hunger Games film. At least that is the rumor that Wrestling Observer‘s Dave Meltzer floated on his radio show today. This comes in the wake of Ronda Rousey’s UFC debut this Saturday. Rousey defeated Liz Carmouche by first round armbar to retain* her bantamweight championship in the first women’s fight in UFC history.

With the win, Rousey is now 7-0. Gina Carano was 7-0 when she took on Cris Cyborg in what was previously the biggest fight in WMMA history. Carano was drubbed by Cyborg and soon left the sport for acting. With the success of Rousey and the new exposure of the sport under the UFC banner, rumors are also circulating that Carano could return to MMA.

Before you get too excited about Rousey jumping to the world of movies, you have to ask what “next” Hunger Games movie means. Catching Fire, the second film in the series is slated for a November 22nd release. Jennifer Lawrence is currently doing reshoots for the film which means unless Rousey is headed to the set, she won’t be appearing in the next movie. Perhaps the third film?

It certainly seems like a great plan today. This weekend Lawrence and Rousey both saw their careers peak. Rousey – who just turned 26 – won the UFC championship and Lawrence – 23 in August – won her first Oscar. On Saturday Rousey was one of the top searches on Google. On Sunday, Lawrence was one of the top searches. Rousey proved herself as a legitimate Pay Per View draw and Lawrence became America’s sweetheart. They should be doing everything together!

*The UFC presented Rousey with a championship belt when she came over from Strikeforce. This was not standard operating procedure for Strikeforce champions who joined the UFC recently.

Big payday for Carano to come back and get her ass beat, no? And she’d come back and get a title fight? I don’t follow this enough but that seems odd. Carano could barely get to 141 for that one fight, would she even be in the same class as Rousey?

I think I could only pass judgment on such a matchup after seeing both of them naked.

Rousey perhaps. But Carano’s is, I feel certain, of the proper lady-like proportions. I based that assumption on how she bites her lip.

Definitely not acting that way. I’m a devotee of all types of the female form, including those with a little extra baby fat. Lucy Collett and Jodie Gasson for example.

*The UFC presented Rousey with a championship belt when she came over from Strikeforce. This was not standard operating procedure for Strikeforce champions who joined the UFC recently.
This is standard procedure for when bringing title holders to the UFC for divisions that did not exist in the UFC previously. See Jose Aldo, Dominick Cruz from. It isn’t for title holders that are entering previously existing divisions. See Gilbert Melendez (Strikeforce 155), Dan Henderson (Pride 185 and 205), Alistair Overeem (Strikeforce and DREAM Heavyweight), Nick Diaz (Strikeforce 170), Anthony Pettis (WEC 155), Carlos Condit (WEC 170) etc. etc. Some of them were given immediate title shots, some weren’t.

But this proceedure was also put in place for 145 and 135 pounders from WEC. Who was the WEC flyweight champion?

There was no WEC Flyweight division. The “biggest” flyweight division in the US was typically considered Tachi Palace Fights. There were some over in Japan, but Tachi had most of the big names in the US. UFC introduced that weight class with a 4 man tourney (Bermudez v. Urushitani and Johnson v. McCall). Winner was the first UFC Flyweight champ.
Like I said in previous comment, they seem to base the decision on the weight class, not the organization that they came from. If there is an existing weight class, there is certain inconsistency in whether a title shot is immediate or not.
