"No concern" about Ronda Rousey having suicidal thoughts post-UFC 207

bjpenndotcom - January 3, 2017

Following Ronda Rousey’s UFC 193 loss to Holly Holm in November of 2015, the former champ was very open about her thoughts of suicide backstage immediately following the loss.

Dana White recalls consoling Ronda Rousey after UFC 207 loss

bjpenndotcom - January 3, 2017

This past weekend, former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey made her highly anticipated return to the Octagon after over a year away from the cage. The return was a very short lived one as Rousey was tagged in the opening moments of the fight before ultimately being stopped just 48 seconds into the fight due to strikes. Following the fight, an emotional Rousey skipped out on her post-fight Octagon interview and opted to head backstage. It was there that UFC President Dana White helped console the former champ for nearly 45 minutes. He spoke to ESPN:

Tom Taylor - January 3, 2017

Last Friday, in the main event of UFC 207, former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey stepped into the Octagon for the first time since she was KO’d by Holly Holm more than a year ago. She did so against the bantamweight division’s current queen, Amanda Nunes. Rousey’s comeback fight would go down as a downright disaster, as she found herself on the wrong end of a TKO just 48 seconds into the fight.

Rousey's nutrition coach says it's "50-50" she returns to the Octagon

Tom Taylor - January 3, 2017

On Friday night, MMA nutritionist Mike Dolce watched his star client get thrashed in a mere 48 seconds. We’re talking, of course, about Ronda Rousey, who was dominated by women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes in her long-awaited comeback fight. The beatdown occurred in the main event of UFC 207. Given that the once dominant Rousey is now 0-2 in her last two fights, losing both by knockout, there is widespread doubt that she’ll ever compete in the Octagon again. You might suspect that Dolce, a long-time part of Rousey’s team, could shed some light on the possibility of her fighting again. When asked to do so on the latest episode of The MMA Hour, however, he explained that he’s as unsure as anyone. In his opinion, you may as well flip a coin.

Tom Taylor - January 1, 2017

In November of 2015, MMA superstar Ronda Rousey was unplugged by a second-round Holly Holm head-kick. It took over a year to happen, but in the main event of last Friday’s UFC 207, the former champ finally returned to the Octagon to redeem herself, when she took on reigning women’s bantamweight queen Amanda Nunes.

On December 30, in the main event of UFC 207, former UFC women’s bantamweight champion and transcendent MMA icon Ronda Rousey made her long awaited return to the Octagon. She did so against reigning bantamweight queen Amanda Nunes, in her first fight since she was turned off by a Holly Holm head kick in November of 2015. Rousey’s return to action could not have gone worse, as she was mauled to a TKO loss in a mere 48 seconds. Now on the first two-fight losing streak of her legendary career, Rousey’s future is undeniably nebulous. While many fans and fellow fighters would like to see her get back on the horse, her retiring seems like a likely possibility.

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon “Bones” Jones is no stranger to fan criticism. Jones has dealt with a ton of backlash from fans and media in the past for personal issues and events that occurred outside of the octagon, and most recently hateful messages stemming from his failed drug test at UFC 200 this past July.
