Former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey has made history during her time under the promotion, featuring a number of records that could well go unbroken for many years. She arguably helped spearhead the initial explosion of women’s MMA in the mainstream, but still she has proved to be one of the most loved and hated figures in the spot. Perhaps it’s just the way she was portrayed during her dominant reign as champion, or maybe you could attribute the negativity to a certain amount of jealousy or just immaturity. Whatever the case, ‘Rowdy’ faced a lot of these bad vibes in a sudden deflagration following UFC 193.

This, and many other hurtful memes made Ronda Rousey’s shocking KO loss to Holly Holm one of the most broadcasted and viewed moments in MMA history. The mixed martial arts community seemed to revel in the fact she’d fallen with such a thump, although as previously discussed it probably had a lot to do with the UFC’s ‘in your face/down your throat’ style of promotion. For all her hard work and crazy finishes inside the octagon, it seems as though Rousey had made very few friends, and a whole line of enemies.

One such enemy includes ferocious Invicta champion Cris Cyborg Justino.

The hard hitting former Strikeforce champion finally signed with the UFC this ear, but sadly a little too late to capitalize on her stewing beef with Ronda Rousey. During the former champions tenure she blasted Cyborg Justino as a ‘steroid junkie,’ and UFC president Dana White even joined in, poking fun at Justino as ‘Wanderlei Silva in a dress.’ How the tables have turned, as Rousey ate her words in front of millions, and now it’s her Brazilian foe who’s taking every opportunity to lambaste ‘Rowdy.’

Don’t think that because Rousey is on a break from fighting, Cyborg isn’t going to takes shots at her. This recent intervew shows the Brazilian brawler is not pulling her punches, and you’ll want to check this out…
