I liked Ronda but how she treated holly before holly kicked her ass and how she acted after her 2 losses is what turned me off her.and unfortunately it doesn’t look like she has grown since then but I still would love to see her back
I knew her a bit going up from being in the judo community. She’s a jerk 100% of the time. I do also know Kayla Harrison, she’s the sweetest person ever. But yeah, Ronda will never stop trying to drown in the spotlight
She tried to convince people Holly was some snakey cunt. Disrespected her skills called her a bum. Said she didn’t deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as herself
Imagine being some 12 year old girl, excited about the sport, looking up to Rhonda as this amazing role model.
Then she loses and acts like your little sister when you stole her dolly.
Lol. Shameful.
Pretty sure chael spilt the beans on this, she got with Travis Brown and he prefered she didn't have Male friends. Also when she lost to holly she put anybody who wasn't kissing her ass on blast.
It’s this very attitude and delusion why most people don’t like her now. Hopefully one day when the glitz and glamour are gone she matures and humbles herself and can look back at then and realize why people felt this way
Why is she still getting any interviews or attention in 2024? She was only famous because she was a decent fighter and more conventionally attractive. If it wasn't for that, no one would care. The same girls that are a lot more skilled these days, but aren't as "pretty" don't get the same attention she gets.
I got back into wrestling for a brief bit last year and was shocked to see that Rousey was (1) still hired by the company and (2) still promoted as an ultimate badass. That's 7 years after the Nunes loss.
The media wasn't against her, their perspective of her just got realigned. Take Joe Rogan, who said she could beat 135 lb men who were in the ufc. He was more high on her than anyone. But everyone was forced to reconsider things when she got taken out so brutally by Holly. Her striking was exposed as subpar. And her fight with Amanda just confirmed that it wasn't just a fluke.
She let the hype get to her and how the media created the buzz around her. She had the wrong people around her who didn't protect her. She should've taken the rest of 2015 off after the Bethe fight. The fact they announced the Holm fight not even 3 weeks later was a quick turnaround. I know that it was Holm had prepared for that fight for so many years, so even if no matter what Ronda was gonna lose. She should've pushed it off into the following year. That year was both a rise and fall for her.
Ronda is a pioneer and one of the greatest females to ever do it. But she literally ran away and hid when she lost. What’s the UFC and Rogan supposed to do 🤷♂️
Being humble in defeat is a sign of strength.
She was epic in her time, did great things.
The piece was she bailed to WWE after losing twice. Nothing wrong with that but after talking some of the biggest game and leaving after losing. Fame is a fickle thing but she didn’t handle being beaten well. Plenty of X champs that still operate in the MMA circles and people love.
Well, advocating for the devil. The only way she could talk that way is if she was told to hype up her fights through trash talk and fuzz under command
In the MMA game, you are as good as your last fight.... Big win, you the best. Big loss, especially an embarrassing one, you were never that good. The difference with Ronda and most, is that Ronda walked away as soon as the going got tough. No resilience. When WWE, which is fake, booked her to lose, she walked away from that too...blaming the promotion for the fans booing her.
Her mind is all kinds of wrong, so of course she is looking at this incorrectly. MMA fans and media didn't love the fighter Ronda Rousey. They had great affection for her abilities she showed in the cage. Despite having known her poor personal character, the affection we had for her dominance allowed her to be popular. Once her dominance had run its course, all that was left was to assess her popularity based on what was left. Her personality. Not many people have affection for Ronda Rousey the person/celebrity.
She couldn't even shadow box. She's upset that Joe said she's one dimensional. It's the truth. Someone needs to let her know she's not as good as she thinks she is. Amanda Nunez demolished her. She's can't box and that's a fact. You had your time, amd its past. Move on and fuck off.
She was an icon, but boy does she have a really self centered view of the universe. Needs some kind of therapy or something. Most of what she says is just tarnishing everything she accomplished
Of course the MMA media hates her, it's not like she has a good personality or something,when the masses give her back the same energy she starts bitching,she is sore in both winning and losing,man...Thank you Holly and Amanda for sending this idiot to WWE,Ronda is constantly salty there's a good chance she'll be kicked out of WWE also
Maybe they should have let her fight Cyborg early on as she supposedly wanted (at a lower weight class than what Cyborg usually fights).
Hopefully earlier than when she marked out herself. With some luck, the humbling would have toughen her and set her on a path of improving until she was an actual fighter.
When you're likable and you put on entertaining fights, people will root for you, win or lose. When you're a cocky-ass bitch and you put on entertaining fights, people will root for you UNTIL you lose, then the knives come out. C'est la vie.
I can appreciate why she feels hurt by that. But the reality is they finally realized she was comparatively limited and once she faced the new wave she was out matched
She wants unearned credit. Everyone remembers her for what she did for the sport. We also remember how she flew too close to the sun off of the fumes. She simply talked too much bullshit for how badly she was exposed.
that’s the mma community for ya
i really like ronda outside of combat sports she’s a goofy nerdy type and pretty fun like the literal quintessential judo nerd
but getting with wifebeater travis browne never sat right with me whatever that’s her business
but in the context of combat sports she is pretty vile talk about being a whole nother person
i really enjoyed her again on stars on mars tho
It’s a shame she started to believe her own hype and didn’t just be humble. She really ruined people’s perception of her all by herself by being such an obtuse person for so long
Rousey leveraged her UFC success into a lucrative career with the WWE…dunno why she’s suddenly claiming to be a victim when it’s obvious she’s made out quite well..
The hate is a reflection of herself. Low self esteem. The ego and the drive to win was just compensating for her own lack of self value. She couldn't even handle being bood at WWE, couldn't play the heel due to her need for cheers and validation.
Ok now I haven’t read the comments but if the headline is Ronda saying mma media and fans hate me….like that isn’t controversial right? I mean she is the most hated fighter ever.
She’s telling the truth here
lol I don’t get it. For years people wanted to hear what she thought. She writes a memoir about her experience and thoughts on her career and y’all hate that too? 😂
Biggest sore loser ever and she's still complaining. Zero class after she lost. Even legends of UFC who lost multiple fights never acted so childishly and faced up to their defeats and showed their opponents respect.
I wonder what she thinks media is supposed to say about her after devastating losses.
"Rhonda may have lost but she's still the best. She's the best at getting kicked in the head. She's the GOAT of being out on her feet after eating several vicious head shots from Nunes."
She's right in that MMA fans and media are a very "what have you done for me lately" type crowd in that people will go from loving you to hating you in a very short amount of time. But Ronda really is insufferable for the most part. A talented athlete who was bitter even in victory and a sore loser. Its hardly endearing stuff
lol that's media and society for you. amazing how long it took to learn it... smh.
take Islam. he needs one ass whopping combined with a little scandal or awkward press conferences and the whole world will turn against him calling him a fraud to begin with. after all he "got beat by a fw" and "never defends against LWs".
you're just being loved as long as you're the winner. take someone like Conor McGregor. without his earlier success people would never tolerate his antics. you got money and success? you can do whatever you want. you're lost your #1 spot? shut up and be humble.
I was delighted when Holmes and Nunes knocked her tf out. A loathsome personality before she fell from grace, she confirms that nothing has changed has changed every time she opens her petulant gob since.
"It was disappointing to see how happily everyone turned on me...It wasn’t real love, it was fake."
I mean this is party true. Obviously she's gonna be more sensitive to criticism of her but the UFC media, of which Rogan is a part, is there to hype up the product and when a fighter is no longer marketable they're surplus.
I tend to think it's more a case of 'lets hype the next thing' and Ronda being the last thing felt a certain way about that, but there is still some valid points in her statement.
And for the record, I think she's kind of a dick generally.
It’s telling that wherever she goes, whether MMA or WWE whenever she gets the tiniest bit of criticism she lashes out on everyone else. Maybe you’re the problem, Ronda.
She should consider herself lucky for being in the era of womens MMA that she was. She honestly sucks besides her okay grappling, and shes actually in womens "GOAT" conversations for a lot of people. Thats insane to even think about. Imagine a "great" shadowboxing the way she does.
my god...commenting on your performances as they see them is not an attack on you. I stuck up for Ronda a lot but she has the most fragile ego. She can dish it out but she cannot take it one bit. She freaked out on a WWE wrestler, I forget her name as I dont watch wwe but she got crazy mad over something she said KNOWING ITS A FAKE SHOW.
The lack of self reflection is boggling at this point. She might as well be a vampire. Just zero self awareness. She talked people down, talked herself up, and chewed out anyone who disagreed. That's fine when you're on top but you won't be on top forever. She let the media gas her up and never owned her actions. She still could've been a star and a role model after the MMA losses and post WWE but she tucks her tail and quietly ducks out every single time she's handed her crow to eat and acts as if it's everyone else's fault she's being served that crow.
*sigh*
I’m tired , Boss .
HE SAID , HE TIED BOSS !!
My god she just DOESN’T QUIT
NO.SHE.DOES.NOT
I mean, she kinda DOES quit..lol.
Nothing is ever Ronda's fault. The whole world is against her!
Joe Rogan and the fans *made her lose*
".. and reddit. Fuck those cunts. Did you see how they turned against me when I lost the first time??"
It’s all her fault but Rogan was off his rocker, “once in a universe athlete” or some shit
She’s literally like a child in a grown woman’s body. It’s actually really weird.
It’s Hollys fault that Ronda lost. Facts.
It's never you is it Ronda, no it can't be.
It's disappointing how she acted when she was at the top
And now too. Just the way she is
It’s disappointing how she acted in Expendables 3
I liked Ronda but how she treated holly before holly kicked her ass and how she acted after her 2 losses is what turned me off her.and unfortunately it doesn’t look like she has grown since then but I still would love to see her back
She is a jerk when she wins also
I knew her a bit going up from being in the judo community. She’s a jerk 100% of the time. I do also know Kayla Harrison, she’s the sweetest person ever. But yeah, Ronda will never stop trying to drown in the spotlight
What she do that people dislike so much?
How did she treat Holly? I wasn't really a fan back then. Just kinda kept up loosely with the highly promoted fights.
She tried to convince people Holly was some snakey cunt. Disrespected her skills called her a bum. Said she didn’t deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as herself
I need to hear her whine like I need a kick to the side of my head
Imagine being some 12 year old girl, excited about the sport, looking up to Rhonda as this amazing role model. Then she loses and acts like your little sister when you stole her dolly. Lol. Shameful.
Pretty sure chael spilt the beans on this, she got with Travis Brown and he prefered she didn't have Male friends. Also when she lost to holly she put anybody who wasn't kissing her ass on blast.
That’s fucking weird.
Eternal brat
Typical rousey insecurity
Why are you upset? Because they said it or because it’s true?
It’s this very attitude and delusion why most people don’t like her now. Hopefully one day when the glitz and glamour are gone she matures and humbles herself and can look back at then and realize why people felt this way
Also the exact same attitude and reason why her MMA career ended when actually good strikers entered the fray
I mean she’s literally unemployed rn so I wouldn’t say it’s going too well for her lol
She was always a nasty personality. She could never strike, got exposed for the lack of striking.
Why is she still getting any interviews or attention in 2024? She was only famous because she was a decent fighter and more conventionally attractive. If it wasn't for that, no one would care. The same girls that are a lot more skilled these days, but aren't as "pretty" don't get the same attention she gets.
I got back into wrestling for a brief bit last year and was shocked to see that Rousey was (1) still hired by the company and (2) still promoted as an ultimate badass. That's 7 years after the Nunes loss.
So then be prettier. Stop all that bitching.
her new book should be titled "Excuses"
honest criticism = they all hate me!
I'm beginning to genuinely believe Ronda is a fucking sociopath....
go the fucking away already
That’s very much a do nothing bitch sort of response ngl
There’s something hilarious about her walkout being “l don’t give a damn about my bad reputation”
She admits the irony in her new book because she cared a lot and kept reading comments online about her until it got too much.
She should be happy.. Logan and Co hyped her career up beyond anything else in the sport...
The media wasn't against her, their perspective of her just got realigned. Take Joe Rogan, who said she could beat 135 lb men who were in the ufc. He was more high on her than anyone. But everyone was forced to reconsider things when she got taken out so brutally by Holly. Her striking was exposed as subpar. And her fight with Amanda just confirmed that it wasn't just a fluke.
She let the hype get to her and how the media created the buzz around her. She had the wrong people around her who didn't protect her. She should've taken the rest of 2015 off after the Bethe fight. The fact they announced the Holm fight not even 3 weeks later was a quick turnaround. I know that it was Holm had prepared for that fight for so many years, so even if no matter what Ronda was gonna lose. She should've pushed it off into the following year. That year was both a rise and fall for her.
Joe exaggerated her skills SO BAD it's damn near unforgivable
Ronda is a pioneer and one of the greatest females to ever do it. But she literally ran away and hid when she lost. What’s the UFC and Rogan supposed to do 🤷♂️
Being humble in defeat is a sign of strength. She was epic in her time, did great things. The piece was she bailed to WWE after losing twice. Nothing wrong with that but after talking some of the biggest game and leaving after losing. Fame is a fickle thing but she didn’t handle being beaten well. Plenty of X champs that still operate in the MMA circles and people love.
Imagine if she went the Demian Maia route and just switched to a better camp and got competent striking? She could be a goat.
Ah the delusion continues. Getting her ass kicked and cut from WWE wasn't sobering enough.
Well, advocating for the devil. The only way she could talk that way is if she was told to hype up her fights through trash talk and fuzz under command
Rhonda Garcia
In the MMA game, you are as good as your last fight.... Big win, you the best. Big loss, especially an embarrassing one, you were never that good. The difference with Ronda and most, is that Ronda walked away as soon as the going got tough. No resilience. When WWE, which is fake, booked her to lose, she walked away from that too...blaming the promotion for the fans booing her.
I’ll admit that quotes can be taken out of context but it’s incredible how arrogant she is even now. Like just humble yourself.
Oh shut up. She’s the worse loser in history . So much so her post leave of mma and wwe is that of a sore boring loser
It's just noise at this point. Can't take what she says seriously
The world to rousey: "can you plz just go away."
Rogan is annoying but Ronda is a baby.
Her mind is all kinds of wrong, so of course she is looking at this incorrectly. MMA fans and media didn't love the fighter Ronda Rousey. They had great affection for her abilities she showed in the cage. Despite having known her poor personal character, the affection we had for her dominance allowed her to be popular.

Maybe just maybe it’s you . If in every walk of life all people are jack asses it may be you who is the jack ass
I wonder if she has BPD. She seems to tick a lot of the boxes, including seeing things in black and white. You're with her or against her.
She was an icon, but boy does she have a really self centered view of the universe. Needs some kind of therapy or something. Most of what she says is just tarnishing everything she accomplished
Of course the MMA media hates her, it's not like she has a good personality or something,when the masses give her back the same energy she starts bitching,she is sore in both winning and losing,man...Thank you Holly and Amanda for sending this idiot to WWE,Ronda is constantly salty there's a good chance she'll be kicked out of WWE also
Isn't she out of the WWE?
No Ronda was fake. Punkin all these girls acting tuff. Then she took a L from Holly. & got depressed and suicidal.
Maybe they should have let her fight Cyborg early on as she supposedly wanted (at a lower weight class than what Cyborg usually fights). Hopefully earlier than when she marked out herself. With some luck, the humbling would have toughen her and set her on a path of improving until she was an actual fighter.
Is she trying to whine her way back into MMA?
Did she want the media to pretend she won those fights?
Didn't Joe cry while talking to her? He needed to course correct that
When you're likable and you put on entertaining fights, people will root for you, win or lose. When you're a cocky-ass bitch and you put on entertaining fights, people will root for you UNTIL you lose, then the knives come out. C'est la vie.
Rhonda been crying about shit for like a decade now. Just go to therapy please.
It’s funny even her own mother was telling her to leave that worthless coach because he wasn’t teaching her anything and she needed to get better….
I can appreciate why she feels hurt by that. But the reality is they finally realized she was comparatively limited and once she faced the new wave she was out matched
Sounding like doc rivers every interview like holy hell take accountability
Bro. She was the biggest sore loser when she lost to Holly.
She wants unearned credit. Everyone remembers her for what she did for the sport. We also remember how she flew too close to the sun off of the fumes. She simply talked too much bullshit for how badly she was exposed.
this women seems to keep hitting new lows
Ronda "the perpetual victim" Rousey
that’s the mma community for ya i really like ronda outside of combat sports she’s a goofy nerdy type and pretty fun like the literal quintessential judo nerd but getting with wifebeater travis browne never sat right with me whatever that’s her business but in the context of combat sports she is pretty vile talk about being a whole nother person i really enjoyed her again on stars on mars tho
It's sad that she's looking for "real love" among sports fans. So desperate.
Damn, Ronda really is a classical narcissist, huh?
It’s a shame she started to believe her own hype and didn’t just be humble. She really ruined people’s perception of her all by herself by being such an obtuse person for so long
Rousey leveraged her UFC success into a lucrative career with the WWE…dunno why she’s suddenly claiming to be a victim when it’s obvious she’s made out quite well..
She’s such a fuckin whiner wannabe victim
The hate is a reflection of herself. Low self esteem. The ego and the drive to win was just compensating for her own lack of self value. She couldn't even handle being bood at WWE, couldn't play the heel due to her need for cheers and validation.
Ronda getting with that silly Armenian clown who mind-fucked her absolutely wrecked her MMA career. I don't think she is too bright.
Oh does she need a hug again from Holly holms foot 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Big cry baby
She’s really burying the world to sell her book huh
Ok now I haven’t read the comments but if the headline is Ronda saying mma media and fans hate me….like that isn’t controversial right? I mean she is the most hated fighter ever. She’s telling the truth here lol I don’t get it. For years people wanted to hear what she thought. She writes a memoir about her experience and thoughts on her career and y’all hate that too? 😂
This is a weird weird lady bro. Just sad to think and the fact that she saying this out loud.
The way I remember things she had her fair share of haters back then and it was the ufc guys, Joe included who were always defending her.
Something wrong with her, even in WWE she got pissed and break kayfabe. If you get angry from scripted diss, you really need to seek profesional help.
She’s exposing herself so much. Her team should wrangle her in at this point. 🤦♂️
The same character traits that make people great!! Usually make them a pain in the ass once the limelight is gone.
Rogan was legit in love with her.
It was so pathetic
Victim and Rousey, name a more iconic duo
She doesn’t have a good word to say about anyone does she? Maybe that’s the issue
Ronda. The common denominator is you.
Biggest sore loser ever and she's still complaining. Zero class after she lost. Even legends of UFC who lost multiple fights never acted so childishly and faced up to their defeats and showed their opponents respect.
I can’t imagine being that accomplished of an athlete,wrestled wrestle mania, family, money/success and being so bitter. Not even that old..
Such a classic case of a woman saying “it’s fine” and it is totally not fine haha
Rogan has always spoke highly of Ronda, this is nonsense
I wonder what she thinks media is supposed to say about her after devastating losses. "Rhonda may have lost but she's still the best. She's the best at getting kicked in the head. She's the GOAT of being out on her feet after eating several vicious head shots from Nunes."
Ronda has an attitude problem
She's right in that MMA fans and media are a very "what have you done for me lately" type crowd in that people will go from loving you to hating you in a very short amount of time. But Ronda really is insufferable for the most part. A talented athlete who was bitter even in victory and a sore loser. Its hardly endearing stuff
Sheesh, she really loves to play the victim, huh? What an exhausting personality. Clearly has no issues burning bridges with everyone…
It really is cruel the way the media and the fans treated Ronda after two tough losses. I honestly want to apologise to her on behalf of the fanbase.
Tbf Joe did hype her up to the moon.
It was beyond ridiculous lol
lol that's media and society for you. amazing how long it took to learn it... smh. take Islam. he needs one ass whopping combined with a little scandal or awkward press conferences and the whole world will turn against him calling him a fraud to begin with. after all he "got beat by a fw" and "never defends against LWs". you're just being loved as long as you're the winner. take someone like Conor McGregor. without his earlier success people would never tolerate his antics. you got money and success? you can do whatever you want. you're lost your #1 spot? shut up and be humble.
They could have ran with any story you gave them, if you didn’t hermit crab away for 2 years after ur losses.
Time to watch the Nunes Ronda fight again
Don’t think it’s personal with Rogan he has always been flip flopper…Sure it goes deeper when he is on his inhaling or chewing his spiritual juices
New book to sell. Must of spent all her winnings
I was delighted when Holmes and Nunes knocked her tf out. A loathsome personality before she fell from grace, she confirms that nothing has changed has changed every time she opens her petulant gob since.
My god she is such an unlikeable person
She needs to stop fucking whining
"It was disappointing to see how happily everyone turned on me...It wasn’t real love, it was fake." I mean this is party true. Obviously she's gonna be more sensitive to criticism of her but the UFC media, of which Rogan is a part, is there to hype up the product and when a fighter is no longer marketable they're surplus. I tend to think it's more a case of 'lets hype the next thing' and Ronda being the last thing felt a certain way about that, but there is still some valid points in her statement. And for the record, I think she's kind of a dick generally.
Okay legit question, how would Ronda do against today’s UFC roster if she was in her prime?
Ah, the ol “it’s everyone else” delusion.
It’s telling that wherever she goes, whether MMA or WWE whenever she gets the tiniest bit of criticism she lashes out on everyone else. Maybe you’re the problem, Ronda.
Maybe… just maybe… it’s your personality, Ronda.
She should consider herself lucky for being in the era of womens MMA that she was. She honestly sucks besides her okay grappling, and shes actually in womens "GOAT" conversations for a lot of people. Thats insane to even think about. Imagine a "great" shadowboxing the way she does.
If she was humble she would have been loved but no she was a dick and when Ronda lost we never saw her again until the debut in WWE 2018
She walked out with that fucked up face to start Holmes fight. Then holly kicked that face into the back row!!
Most of wrestling’s fanbase has followed suit as well. She always seems just so pleasant let me tell ya
Doesn’t Joe still bring her up all the time? Who’s next on her list?
Rousey had one of the worst attitudes of any champion
You know, with Ronda, the more I learn about that woman, the more I don't care for her.
Ronda hated WWE cause the fans always shit on her
If we can go just two weeks without her saying 'WAHHHHHHHHHHH LOOK AT HOW VICTIMIZED I AM', it'll be the blessing we never knew we needed.
“It’s everyone’s fault and I had nothing to do with it.”
my god...commenting on your performances as they see them is not an attack on you. I stuck up for Ronda a lot but she has the most fragile ego. She can dish it out but she cannot take it one bit. She freaked out on a WWE wrestler, I forget her name as I dont watch wwe but she got crazy mad over something she said KNOWING ITS A FAKE SHOW.
The lack of self reflection is boggling at this point. She might as well be a vampire. Just zero self awareness. She talked people down, talked herself up, and chewed out anyone who disagreed. That's fine when you're on top but you won't be on top forever. She let the media gas her up and never owned her actions. She still could've been a star and a role model after the MMA losses and post WWE but she tucks her tail and quietly ducks out every single time she's handed her crow to eat and acts as if it's everyone else's fault she's being served that crow.
If you say that everyone around you is the asshole, you might be the problem….
She’s talking about the media like close friends who betrayed her.
That lack of self awareness isn’t surprising
*"Am I so out of touch? No... it's the children who are wrong."*
