After over a year on the side lines and being absent from much of the media, UFC superstar Ronda Rousey made her much anticipated comeback fight at UFC 207 after her shocking defeat a year prior to former champion Holly Holm in Australia.
But unfortunately for Rousey and her team she didn’t get the redemption that she or her fans were hoping for, after being on the receiving end of a 46 second destruction courtesy of reigning champion Amanda Nunes. The sold out pro Ronda crowd in Las Vegas was completely silenced and this loss very likely sent Rousey into a permanent retirement from the sport of mixed martial arts.
Like the millions of fans that tuning in, some of Hollywood’s biggest stars expressed their thoughts post fight on Twitter. Some responses were shocking, some gloated while many others simply couldn’t believe what had transpired in such a short amount of time.
Check out what how of Hollywood’s biggest stars reacted below.
you just got knocked the fuck out

Nunes is a beast!👊🏾
Ronda should've had a tune up fight at least.
