Rousey will be on television a lot this week. In addition to co-hosting SportsCenter, she'll also be on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" on Tuesday night. She'll also be on multiple ESPN shows Wednesday.
This won't be the first time Rousey knocks off a first for women. Earlier this week she appeared on the cover of Men's Fitness Australia, which was the first time a woman has graced the cover.
All of this is building up to hype her UFC 193 fight against Holly Holm, which takes place in Melbourne, Australia on Nov. 15.
