After her infamous defeat to Holly Holm, Ronda Rousey admitted via a news report that she reached a point when she thought of ending her own life.

According to Celeb Dirty Laundry, the 29-year-old UFC fighter admitted to Ellen Degeneres on Tuesday that "after she lost to Holm - she actually contemplated taking her own life."

"Honestly, my thought I was like, in the medical room and I was down in the corner," she narrated. "I was sitting in the corner like, What am I anymore if I'm not this? And I was literally sitting there and thinking about killing myself and that exact second."

Ronda Rousey continued by saying, "I'm like I'm nothing ... what do I do anymore and no one gives a shit about me anymore without this."

It was pointed out that if not for her boyfriend, Travis Browne, the UFC world may have lost a champion.

"Obviously Ronda was able to pull herself together and not try to commit suicide, and she gushed to Ellen DeGeneres that it was all because of her boyfriend," the outlet dished. "Rousey realized that she had to keep going for Travis, and so that she could 'have his babies' some day."

Being the "Queen of UFC," as shared by several news reports, not until Holly Holm defeated her in November,  Ronda Rousey "was so distraught over her loss" but not because she was knocked down. Rather, it was pointed out that "she was exhausted and that was her third title first in 9 months, 'and no one has ever attempted that.'"

In the meantime, USA Today reported that Kobe Bryant stayed by the side of UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion even after her defeat.

"I sent her several messages, so yes, we have touched base," the NBA superstar said. "That's what it's about. It's not about how you win. A true champion is about how you lose and come back from that."
