Ronda Rousey Was Really Impressed And Honored By Artist’s Mural In Venice Beach

Artist Jonas Never has put together a stunning mural of MMA god and all-around-badass Ronda Rousey. Never and Rousey attended the same high school (Rousey was a few years ahead of Never) and Never was so inspired by Rousey’s athletic dominance that he painted the 20-foot mural in Venice, California, the city where Rousey lives.

Rousey posted a photo of the mural on Instagram and complimented Never on his outstanding work.

Thank you @never1959 for the beautiful Venice mural!!! Growing up in Venice gives you a real appreciation for street art,and this is the biggest possible compliment from one local to another #Iheartstreetart ❤️🎨

The quote on the mural that reads “Never forget where you came from” is a part of Rousey’s “Belt Retention 101”.

Belt Retention 101: Never forget where you came from… Make time when there is none, Always find a way to train… One nice thing about getting a Red Rock Suite is plenty of space to hit mitts with @gfc_diamond between appearances🙇🙏
