Ronda Rousey ‘To Star in Her Own Movie’

Watch the recently released “UFC 190: Thrill and Agony”, which takes fans behind the scenes of major UFC events, and you’ll see that Ronda Rousey’s toughest critics might be in her own corner.

“On Tuesday, she posted (an Instagram photo) as she delivered her belt to the Reaction Institute, a judo school in Rio de Janeiro”. Back in March, Rousey also handed them a $30,000 check.

Just because the world is talking about a Ronda Rousey vs. Cristiane Justino “super fight”(guilty as charged), doesn’t mean it’s any closer to actually happening.

Fox Sports said that Rousey also wanted to give the belt to the institution to inspire the kids there. I will get that belt.

Rousey’s plan of leaving her belt was apparently her intent even before UFC 190, acknowledging Correia’s earlier rant that the UFC belt deserves to be in Brazil. Though the PitBull didn’t win over Rousey, half of her intent was practically fulfilled when Rousey took the liberty of handing the UFC belt to a group of students. In fact, just one opponent – Miesha Tate – lasted more than a round with the Olympic medalist. “She first visited the institute in 2014”.

“I don’t think it’s right she can say something she cannot prove”.

“I promise I will fight for the belt next year”, Correia said, according to a translation from Bloody Elbow.

The Invicta champion added that she is now ready to drop five pounds since it is “already an unprecedented compromise”. There have long been rumblings that Rousey could fight Cris “Cyborg” Justino, but the latest developments with that don’t sound promising. I have a fighter’s heart.

Prior to her most-recent win, Rousey explained how her burgeoning movie career would work around her UFC commitments.

Justino, however, denied the allegations.

“(Rousey) can’t say anything about my doping”, Justino said. It was 2011. I have passed six tests and the same exams she’s doing, because we’re in the same organization now…
