UFC® WOMEN’S BANTAMWEIGHT CHAMPION RONDA ROUSEY CHOOSES MONSTER AS HEADPHONE AND AUDIO PARTNER
Las Vegas, Nev. – Monster Products, the world leader in
high-performance headphones, and the Ultimate Fighting Championship® organization are pleased to announce that UFC® women’s bantamweight champion, Ronda Rousey, has chosen Monster as her headphone and audio products partner.
Fresh from successfully defending her championship title against Alexis Davis at UFC 175 in Las Vegas on July 5, with an impressive 16 second knockout victory, and about to make her movie debut in The Expendables 3, Rousey is no stranger to success and working with the best, making the partnership with Monster a knockout choice.
“Music is a huge part of my life. It motivates me while training and before my fights while also helping me relax in my down time,” said Rousey. “Monster shares the same standards for perfection and performance in their products that I bring to the UFC. Regardless of the song, Monster headphones sound incredible and amp up my listening experience.”
Monster and the UFC: The Fusion of Music, Sports and Lifestyle

From the first American woman to win a bronze medal in Judo in the Olympic Games, to her current undefeated record as the UFC women’s bantamweight champion, she truly embodies the essence of Monster.”
