Rousey Talks Pantene Endorsement, Retirement Plans On "Conan"

UFC fighter Ronda Rousey appeared on TBS’ “Conan” last night and discussed her retirement plans, Pantene endorsement and her new hobby, knitting. Rousey said she belongs to a "knitting/drinking club," and she "had some reasons to drink this last year." Rousey, when asked whether she would retire after her next fight, said, “I don’t think after this fight, but definitely soon.” TBS' Conan O’Brien: “You're an incredibly attractive spokesperson who a lot of companies would be vying for. Why Pantene?” Rousey: “It’s really the new direction that they've gone with the company. The whole ‘Strong is beautiful’ slogan is something I really identify with, and I really feel like it's representative of real social change” (“Conan,” TBS, 12/7).
