Yeah, not a great performance by my girl Rousey *shrug*
Still think she could have won that under the right circumstances. Come at me
Dont wanna sound like a idiot, but we all need to leave the option open that Rousey had a huge INCENTIVE... to not win that fight!!!
Even before rousey fought Holm she let everyone know that she planned to get out...
Even before Holm she started to hate MMA and MMA-journalists... she distanced herself more and more from MMA... MMA wasnt her number one love...
FREEDOM is something very important, fighters/entertainers go very far for their freedom... Rousey couldnt be free if she beat Amanda Nunes, champions clause etc....(Check what happened with Randy couture)
Her first move was to publicly threaten with suicide on a big stage like ELLEN where everyone was anticipating her interview post HOLM...
next move was to not become champion...
Even Rumble wanted to be free at some point and in a champions fight, he fought out of character vs DC!!!
Rousey IMO did lose fair and square to Holm, but this fight i'll never know for sure. Same goes for the Rumble vs DC fight to a lesser extend...
It would be funny if rousey would now fight non champs in MMA outside of the octagon(Miesha tate, Holm and if Cyborg loses her title maybe even Cyborg
