    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.

And her attitude. Maybe Amanda Nunes gave her the Concussion whe Nunez used her face as punching bag 🎒 for 40 seconds.
