Holly Holm Remains Tough On Ronda Rousey Who Revealed She Contemplated Suicide After Loss?
Holly Holm - Ronda Rousey fight rematch won't happen anytime soon.
The former is set to fight Miesha Tate in March while the latter is content with recalling her thoughts during the time she was knocked on the floor.
In her latest TV appearance, Ronda Rousey revealed something her fans never thought someone like her would say. She said she contemplated suicide right at the moment she realized she lost to Holly Holm in November last year, the first ever in her career.
This is a shocking revelation since it came from an athlete who overcame challenges and worked her way to the top. Holly Holm is dumbfounded by these admissions from Ronda Rousey, too.
"There's a lot of things around that. When I heard that she said that, for me it's one of those things it's like, 'How do I respond to that?'" the current UFC Bantamweight Champ told TMZ when asked about Rousey's mental breakdown.
"I don't want to say I'm sorry because I think on a competitive level for me, if somebody was to say they're sorry after [beating me], it's like, 'No, I'm a competitor.' I'm not a charity case."
Rousey revealed that she hit rock bottom during her appearance on "The Ellen Degeneres" show. She said she literally wanted to kill herself right then and there after her knockout to Holly Holm which cost her women's bantamweight championship belt.
This was her first loss in her 13 professional fights.
Former pro wrestler turned MMA fighter Brock Lesnar dished out an advice to his colleague saying "One fight isn't going to make or break her career."
"One thing that I learned and she should have learned a long time ago was that you have to learn how to lose before you can actually win," he told Sports Center via Fox Sports.
The only next move for Ronda Rousey is to win again. UFC president Dana White did not reveal what event Holly Holm - Ronda Rousey fight rematch will happen but assured the latter will be back in the octagon this year.
