It's been rumored for a while that UFC stars Ronda Rousey and Travis Browne are romantically involved and now Browne has come out and confirmed it.
'I'll say now that we are together,' Browne, 33, said during an interview on The MMA Hour Live on Monday. 'She's my woman and I am her man.'
The pair hooked up, as TMZ reported, after he split from Jenna Renee Webb who accused him in July of having beaten her. He denied the allegation.

Things appear to have moved quickly between the two fighters.
'There's no boyfriend, girlfriend stuff. There's no dating,' he emphasized. 'We're together.'
Browne, who's six-foot, seven-inches tall, revealed that he and the five-foot, six-inch Rousey started chatting over the summer and things just blossomed.

The athletic blonde is also doing the rounds of TV talk shows to hype up the fight.
While Browne was spilling the beans on their relationship, she was appearing on Live! With Kelly And Michael in New York.
The news is not without controversy, though.
Controversy: In July, the UFC heavyweight was accused of domestic violence by fitness model Jenna Renee Webb. He denied it and a UFC investigation failed to turn up any proof the allegations were true
The ex: Webb, who lives in Florida, posted these photos on social media in July and alleged that the injuries shown had been caused by Browne
Browne's fitness model ex, who lives in Florida, posted photos on her Instagram account in July, purporting to show bruises caused by the mixed martial artist who competes as a heavyweight in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
As a result of Webb's claims, the Hawaiian-born athlete was suspended by the UFC and forbidden to take part in UFC 189 Fight Week while an investigation was launched into the allegations.
Investigators concluded there wasn't sufficient evidence to prove he was guilty of domestic violence and he was ultimately reinstated.
Work out buddies: Rousey and Browne often train at the same gym in Los Angeles and Browne said he's in awe of her laser focus and described her as one of the hardest working athletes he's ever seen
Browne said he has cut off all communication with Webb and is moving on with his life, thanks to Rousey.
He said he's smitten with the California native whom he describes as a 'sweetheart' outside of the octagon.
'I see her for who she is,' he explained.
As for Rousey's celebrity status, he's not fazed by it, he said.
'She's a huge star and that's great for her and I'm happy for her,' he said, according to mmafighting.com. 'I want nothing to do but support that aspect in her life.'
Celebrity: The 28-year-old is busy promoting her upcoming bout with Holly Holm set for November in Australia. She's also building a Hollywood career with roles in Furious 7 and Entourage. She was a guest on Live! With Kelly And Michael on Monday
