Ronda Rousey sparked speculation earlier this week, she will appear in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Shoot annual issue for the second year in a row after one of the outlet's editors teased on Twitter an uncensored photo that appeared to show her naked from behind, covered in a body-painted black and white swimsuit.
Sports Illustrated teased readers further but saying, "We can neither confirm nor deny these rumors, but isn't the idea of Ronda donning nothing but paint enough to tide you over until the issue comes out in February?"
Rousey and the magazine confirmed her upcoming appearance on Thursday, after candid photos were also leaked.
The UFC star wrote on Instagram, alongside a screenshot of a tweet from the magazine, which contained another photo of her in her body paint, sitting on a beach in the shallow water, "Secret's out?so here's a free preview of this year's 2016 SI swimsuit issue."
