It’s funny to me when I see a bunch of clowns talking shit about Rousey. Me and a few other fighters can say wtf we want. We get in the ring and fight. 

It’s as simple as that. What we/us fighters are making fun of is not a girl losing a fight. I honestly don’t like seeing girls get hurt. I don’t like seeing anyone get hurt. But girls especially. It’s the promotion that built her up and gave her more than we ever imagined and promoted her so much making her a legit celebrity that were cracking on. It’s not Rhonda.

Yeah maybe we’re a bit jealous. Maybe we just wish we had the UFC machine behind us the way it’s behind her. 

But at the end of the day Rhonda trains hard and gets in the ring and fights even harder. She took a lot of punishment. She got hit with a bunch of hard shots and kept fighting. Kept coming, kept trying to win. 

When was the last time you worked hard, sacrificed and stepped up naked for the world to see. When was the last time or anytime for that matter when you made sacrifices worked hard to accomplish something. When was the last time you stepped up. Never mind fought. How about stuck to a diet? How about stuck to a challenging physical routine?

Oh yeah, never. That’s what I thought. 

It’s funny how everyone rides on your coat tails. Praises you, makes you a star, larger than life. Then shits on you when you stumble. 

Holm did great. Be happy for her. She beat the unbeatable. She Shook up the MMA world. But don’t forget if it wasn’t for Rhonda you wouldn’t know Holly Cyborg or Tate. How do I know? Because they all have been fighting a lot longer than Rhonda and you before Ronda you didn’t care. It was Rhonda who broke out. Who carried the torch. Who was the star. 

I’m reading comments on here from fucking clowns. Yeah some of you I know personally and your clowns. Gutless haters who like to kick people when there down in the back of the head so they can’t see you. Just incase maybe they get back up. 

I mean look in the mirror. What do you see. Does it make you feel good to see a girl get hurt? Because that’s what your celebrating. 

Rhonda went back out there for the second round. After what was probably the first round she lost in her entire career. And She went out there to fight. She took hard shot after hard shot but kept coming. She Kept fighting. She threw punch after punch in desperation trying to defend her title. She fought until her body gave out. She fought until she couldn’t physically anymore. Like a CHAMPION. Her body just couldn’t keep going. But her spirt, her will was not broken and cannot be questioned. What did Ronda show that night? She showed how a champion loses her title. Swinging for the fences until she couldn’t anymore.

Yeah it’s easy to say you saw the writing on the wall after the fact. 

Will Rhonda come back? Can she comeback and be the dominate force she was. Well she showed the heart of a champion. The will and determination of a champion last night. Ronda will fight again. She already stated she would.

what made you love her, what made you tune in. What filled the arena in Australia was Rhonda’s belief in herself. Call it what you want. But it was a belief in herself that captivated you. It was something you admired in her because you don’t have it in yourself. That’s what’s captivating. Her belief in her skills,her abilities and herself. It’s admirable to say the least. And for a moment you believed in her as well. You admired her confidence, her brashness her ability to do what she said she was going to do time and time again.

Ronda lost like a champion last night. When was the last time you did anything like a champion?
