If you didn’t see this one coming, we’re not sure where you’ve been the last couple of months. Ever since Sports Illustrated shared some mysterious butt shots, UFC star Ronda Rousey was rumored to be the cover model for the much-heralded SI swimsuit edition. We won’t split hairs regarding the fact that she isn’t actually wearing a swimsuit.

Rousey is actually one of three models sharing a cover on three editions of this year’s issue. The other models, Ashley Graham and Hailey Clauson, opted for some more traditional beachwear.

Rousey gave them both a shout out in her Instagram post, saying that she was honored to not only share the cover, but to do it while celebrating women of all body types. Oh, did we mention you can pick up the issue right now?
