I met Ronda and her mom before. They both are so down to earth, cool and funny. What sweethearts they really are! You have to remember, that people in certain industries have to protect their image, brand and character(s). People talked so much crap about Tito Ortiz too. I met him several times before. He was the nicest dude! So laid back and down to earth as well. All that TV stuff is hype and an act to sell tickets and put butts in seats. It works for sure. Ronda was trying to match Holly's standup that night. Holly was the better fighter that night, especially in the stand-up. Takedowns and ground would have been all Ronda's hands down. If you played football, box, or did martial arts, you know concussions are no joke. Even being in a car accident can give you several concussions. It can take a toll on you and may never go away.

To think just because Rhonda and her mom came off "cool and funny" to you one day and that is proof positive that you now have this unique insight into that family is pretty naive. I think most ppl can tell which fighters are playing characters and which are being real. All fighters deal with injuries/concussions in fight camps, so did her opponents. That is a contrived excuse she came up with later. Rhonda is a well known terrible loser and can't admit other fighters could be better. It's just that simple.

@m1garand164 Naive? Look who is talking. You can not even spell her name correctly. Have you ever met Ronda? Have you ever met her mother? Go ahead, I will wait for your answer..................no you have not! From my special experience with Ronda and her mother, all I can say is that they seemed like very nice people. I have met a lot of famous people, and a couple (only two) of them were aholes. How many times did Ronda lose in MMA? The UFC was not her first rodeo mate. She has lost in judo several times, so she knows how to handle losses. Those two losses in the UFC were hard losses for her, which is understandable. Have you EVER done any type of fighting? My guess is, you probably have not. Most of the people who tend to be Ronda haters or criticize her have never ever been at her level, let alone done any type of fighting. Doing intense judo and MMA for YEARS from a young age can have a heavy impact on your entire body. What an asinine remark you made though mate! You never met them, but you think you know them. Who are you to cast judgment on her or her mother??? You definitely are not NO GOD for sure. If you were, you would not say such foolish things. You DO NOT judge, condemn, cast, or pass judgment on people. You need to learn some "Golden Rules" because all your negativity will come back to you.

@m1garand164 Ronda does not want her losses to tarnish her brand, reputation, and/or legacy like they did her record. It takes years to build a brand, reputation, image, and/or legacy. It can take only seconds to ruin them. Those losses in Judo and MMA do not define who she truly is. They did help make and shape her into the fighter she became. Today's society and haters like yourself are very pessimistic and love negativity. It is like "misery loves company" in a way. For example, even though Bill Buckner was a great baseball player, he will be forever known for making a simple but costly mistake. That one mistake he made that day tarnished his legacy. It haunted him to the grave. That is wrong to do him like that until the day he died! Society is still rubbing it in after he died. WTH! You talk about being naive.........Please! Charlatans are always haters who are quick to judge.

She'll say anything to sell a book, toxic lady.
Rhonda's parents moved her to Jamestown, North Dakota when she was three years old, as Rhonda suffered from apraxia. This is a speech and sound disorder, so she needed years of speech therapy. It's difficult to start childhood that way.

"Writing my memoir is like . . . rewriting history." Dana Jacobsen acts like everything in the book is an objective fact; why would we trust the memories from 9 years ago of someone who's said she had a bunch of concussions? Does Jacobsen think Rousey's the only MMA fighter who's had concussions?
With this book tour she just did a one woman hit job on any shred of respect former fans may have still had for her and her legacy. She has got this uncanny god given talent to say and do exactly what is needed to sabotage her reputation and likeabilty at every opportunity.
Okay but anyone read the book yet?
After all of Ronda's wins I always thought the only person that could take her down in MMA would be Cyborg. Ronda is defiantly one of the best MMA fighters EVER. She won so many fights and lost some but was no joke. I love her!!!!
Rhonda, that's what happens when you get punched hard in the face. You can't think or see very good afterwards. Just admit she kicked your arse and stop making silly excuses. Plus you got your arse kicked again by Nunes. I'm sure there was an excuse for that too. I loved watching her fight but I hate when people refuse to give the other person credit when they lose. It's weak.

Dana great story !
If this concussion was real and she had to leave MMA and was really worried, why would she sign a fulltime contract with WWE?!? Sounds to me like it’s just a story she tells herself to say that if it wasn’t for this concussion thing she would never have lost to Holmes and Nunes.
showing vulnerability? making up excuses for her devistanting losses. She just tarnished her legacy. RR is an arrogant low class loser. Holly Holm IS and acts like a champion. RR is a bad sport - a bad winner and a sore loser/.
Worse explanation for getting a beat down 😂😂
She’s always been full of excuses, too proud to give her opponent any credit…she was/is a one trick pony who let the sport pass her up while being active…always remember “head movement head movement head movement!…nooo!!” So cowardly to blame it on an “injury” instead of being REAL and admitting Holly was a better fighter and figured her out…she listened to no one and paid the price

Ronda is a bully who can't accept she got beat by a better fighter on the night. No one wants to hear these excuses when you lose, most lose and no one cares, it's your attitude that people care about and her attitude left a lot to be desired.
Delusional, you don't lose like that being the best ever, let alone lose. Plus you don't get to declare yourself the best, unless your ego is floating you off the planet. Others make that judgment, plus how you should want it to be
She is a joke , if she her ego was not so huge she would be a legend
I appreciate Rhonda now that she's been long gone from MMA. I'll admit, I took her greatness for granted when she was still competing. She's a true trailblazer. Although she's not the very first female MMA fighter (Gina Carano is), she made it mainstream. She's pretty much what Hulk Hogan did for pro wrestling in the 1980s in women's MMA.

It's part of being a fighter. You have to believe that you're the best otherwise the game will eat you alive. MY LIONESS Amanda Nunes had already lost to top contenders Alexis Davis and Cat Zingano both whom Rousey beat. Nunes also lost to Sara Alelio and Ana Maria all earlier in her career and would later AS CHAMPION lose to Juliana Pena via RNC submission. Even after all of that Nunes believes she's the GOAT. I agree but Rousey is a GREAT as well.
We love you Ronda ❤
an inspiration and legend
Long live Holly Holmes. And Amanda nunes.. 2 rumors back in they before 1 trick pony Ronda rousy fell like a rock when Holly K.O. If rousey would won the fight with Holly American reporters were going to push for her to be Grreatest G.O.A.T of all GOATS EVEN BETTER than Michael Jordan. And second rumor .was her boss Godfather Dana white wanted a fight with Ronda rousey and Floyd mayweather to happend because white and rousey really believe she could beat Mayweather. In real fight. And her attitude. Maybe Amanda Nunes gave her the Concussion whe Nunez used her face as punching bag 🎒 for 40 seconds. And was over then went to fake fighting scripted prowrastling that Holly and Amanda were laughing so hard when Ronda rousey made her pro wrastlimg Debut nation wide woth monikor as baddest woman in the universe.
She’s was doing too much when she started going at Floyd that was her fall from grace
