MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) – For a woman who admits she never needs to work again and is being courted by Hollywood executives, Ronda Rousey has a decidedly modest plan to reward herself if she successfully defends her UFC bantamweight title against Holly Holm on Sunday.

“I want to get some vertical gardens in my house,” Rousey said Friday when asked what she’d treat herself to with her prize money. “I don’t think they’re that expensive though. But that’s what I want. I have simple tastes.”

Vertical gardens generally retail for as little as $100.

“I don’t have a (big) yard, it’s like a small little thing and I kind of wanted to put vertical gardens on my walls because I don’t really have many plants,” Rousey said. “I ordered some grass to come in so my dog could pee on it.”

The UFC has brought its showcase UFC 193 to Australia this week, with the Rousey-Holm fight overshadowing the men as the main event in front of an expected record UFC crowd.
