Ronda Rousey’s powerful punches show strength, control: 10 UFC 190 fight photos

While the timing might be a bit close, Rousey has previously shown a willingness to fight anyone, anywhere, at any time, provided she survives her encounter with Correia relatively unscathed. After Rousey’s fight, Jones make a joke about the blink-and-you’ll-miss-it bout, which apparently didn’t land with many fans.

Rousey had a simple message for Correia after the fight ended, “Don’t cry”. “I fight in the UFC, in the 135-pound division”. Their bad blood hasn’t stopped, including coaching stints opposite each other on “The Ultimate Fighter” before their rematch at UFC 168.

UFC president Dana White stated he’s more than happy to put the fight together tomorrow if the Brazilian slugger can cut down to 135 pounds to face Rousey in the Octagon.

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.

Watch out, world! Now that Ronda Rousey defeated Bethe Correia at UFC 190 on August 1, who will the champ take down next?

As soon as Cris proves she can make the 135-pound weight limit, of course. The way she knocked her out like that, she can do it all. “Everything I said was very honest”, Correia said.

“I hope him and my dad had a good time watching today”, said Rousey, fighting back tears.

“She is a special individual”, McGregor said, listing Rousey’s accomplishments.

“I just had this feeling driving home listening to that song that this is the beginning of a whole new era for me”, Rousey said. I think Correia deserves another shot against a top 5 fighter, I really want to see what she can do. “She’ll pick out mistakes and get better with her striking and get even more risky. I can’t fight but I’ll prolong it and run circles for at least a minute”, Jones wrote on Twitter.

In her post-fight interview, Rousey said, “I feel it’s a challenge, I want to silence every criticism one at a time, and I think I silenced one tonight”.

Ronda Rousey plans to continue to ramp up her film career and one of her next roles won’t be much of a stretch.
