Ronda Rousey to Cris ‘Cyborg’: Drop the steroids and just make weight
Following her latest win, Rousey reiterated her demands for a fight with Cyborg to happen in the UFC: get down to 135 pounds or kiss that title shot goodbye.
Ronda Rousey triumphed in her fight against rival Bethe Correia, delivering what was a knockout victory in just 34 seconds of the first round to retain her UFC bantamweight title. If you missed the contest, both Rousey and Correia came out winging bombs.
White said he would like Rousey to fight December. 5 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas in her third bout with heated rival and No. 1 contender Miesha Tate.
There was no touch of gloves when the bell rang. It took her a minute and six seconds to knock out Sara McMann at UFC 170, and then crushed Alexis Davis in 16 seconds at UFC 175.
Correia fell sideways and hit the floor.
The Olympic athlete doesn’t think she could beat Rousey in a fight. Here’s what else we know so far! She announced on Wednesday that she renewed her Las Vegas-based contract for another eight fights.
So Correia was probably super-embarrassed once Rousey flicked her to the side like a fly and got burned her own awful trash-talking.
“I consider the matter settled”, Rousey said.
“That fight is ready to roll whenever Cyborg is ready”, White said.
When interviewed by reporters after defeating Correia, Rousey said, ‘Thank you very much, Brazil! I don’t let those kind of things slide, but I’m also a patient girl.
After tearing through Bethe Correia in 34 seconds at UFC 190, Ronda Rousey is the talk of the sports world once again.
Rousey defended her bantamweight title by throwing a rapid sequence of punches at the Brazilians head, landing a combination of right and left strikes that sent her opponent face-first into the ground and disappointed the local fans packing the HSBC Arena. It was my point of view as well as what I believed in.
Rousey said she was fighting in memory of Hall of Fame wrestler Roddy Piper, whose death was confirmed Friday.
Ronda Rousey’s continued dominance of women’s mixed martial arts begs for someone to bring a stiffer challenge, and the next to try – for a third time – is expected to be Miesha Tate. I told him that. Actually, she’s made several appearances as an actress in such films as The Expendable 3, Furious 7 as well as Entourage (where she also played herself).
