“Of course not. I’m familiar with Holly Holm…hopefully… she’ll get the exposure she needs to take her career to the next level”, Laila said.

Holm landed the finishing blow 59 seconds into the second round with a solid kick right into Rousey’s neck, to become the first fighter to defeat Rowdy and the one to last longer than the first round. Rousey said. “I’d like to see you pretend to not know who I am now”.
Said Rousey to Fallon: “She’s undefeated and an incredible athlete”.
Rousey claimed a bronze medal in judo at the 2008 Olympics before becoming the pin-up queen of UFC, and Dolce said she would draw on that experience ahead of a probable re-match against Holm. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t take back anything I did.
“I’m going to take a little break, but I’ll be back” wrote Rousey on her Instagram.
A number of people have laughed at Rousey, who was thought to be by many unbeatable in the Octagon, following one of the biggest upsets the sport has seen.
Rousey and Tate have fought twice before, and on both occasions, “Rowdy” walked away as the victor. It’s the fight game and she signed on the dotted line. But the bigger bouts, just like in boxing, the finish is predetermined. A picture on Instagram showed Rousey’s face superimposed over a dying Apollo Creed lying in the arms of Sylvester Stallone in Rocky IV with the words: “Floyd told me to post this”. “Everything happens for a reason”. “If you need help as far as with boxing, I’m here to help you”. This was already written. I have so much I can learn from her. I’m so honored to be able to call her a teammate and most importantly a friend. “It’s uncomfortable sometimes, but I just really like to take the chance and believe in myself”. Laila shared that she knew Holm to be a very gifted boxer with knowledge on the mixed martial arts.

Since that moment, Rousey has been clamoring to return to the WWE and she is now enjoying the Divas Revolution. I’ve never been on the other side, so I don’t know how it feels.
