Vice takes a deep look at Ottavia Bourdain and her love of fighting.

Most people know the Bourdain name from Anthony. Chef, TV personality, and jet-setter. What many don’t know, is that his better half is an MMA obsessed Renzo Gracie blue belt that would much rather be spending time on the mats than around a plate. She would rather be in a sauna cutting weight than in a steaming kitchen. Ottavia Bourdain is quite simply a badass that you had no idea existed, but you should’ve.

Vice, in it’s continuing series of expose’s on fascinating people in the fighting industry, has decided to turn the lens on Mrs. Bourdain to discuss her love of punching and kicking.
