Episode two of Ronda Rousey "All Access" will premiere TONIGHT (Weds., Aug 15, 2012) at 9:30 p.m. ET on Showtime to promote the upcoming Strikeforce event scheduled for this Saturday night at the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego, California.

That's where the "Rowdy" one will defend her bantamweight belt opposite former titleholder Sarah Kaufman.

The premium cable network special will provide a glimpse into the life of 135-pound female champion, who captured the crown from Miesha Tate earlier this year in Columbus, Ohio, keeping her record intact and making her perhaps the most feared female fighter since "Cyborg" Santos.

Who just so happens to want a crack at the former Olympian upon her return.
