[@partymarty5207]

The fans didn't betray Rhonda because she lost to Amanda. Most people were turned off to her by watching her season of TUF and how she acted in the lead up to the Holly Holm fight.

[@kev30631]

Rhonda was always a heel. And it wasn't the Chael Sonnen heel. She was a complete polarizing, narcissistic unfunny heel. She wasn't throwing out quips and trying to be clever. She was like f##k you.

[@shadow_realm47]

Even if you keep the fans that turned on her aside. A lotta people followed her to WWE. She mainevented immediately cus of her pre existing fan base. Lil kids loved her until she soured them as well. " If everyone you meet is a jerk, then maybe you're the jerk!"-😂😂😂😂

[@TomCruz54321]

I can confirm. My views on her started to change when she acted batshït insane in TUF against Meisha Tate. People can tell when you are putting on a character like Chael against Anderson or Mayweather against Pacquiao, but in Ronda's case it seemed being a nasty biatch wasn't an act, it was her true personality.

She was quite literally not the greatest fighter who lived and fought at the same time she was on the champion. She was ducking cyborg the whole time and didn’t want to fight Amanda Nunez either.

[@jabloneynophony1875]

In her defense, Cyborg was a known cheater. And if she didn't want to fight Nunez, then she wouldn't have chosen the fight. And it WAS her choice. Dana said she had the option to fight anyone on the roster. She chose the champion.

Certainly not even close to the greatest but cyborg was a known steroid taker and it was baffling how she hadn't been banned yet..... It's a ducking that I don't really hold against her like that....

[@theringmonster]

The reason everybody turned on her when she fought Amanda was because she REFUSED to do any promotional work or press conferences because she didn’t want to be questioned about her loss to Holly and her fragile delicate mind wouldn’t be able to take it, THAT’S why the entire world hated her and took joy in her well deserved beating..

[@DGillian6406]

Yes! Plus she totally flipped……from being on every night time talk show to Ellen, etc then not wanting to even make a comment to the fans after the loss to Holly….bad look. It would’ve made sense if she didn’t like the bright lights but she was in SI swimsuit, about to star in the new (at that time) roadhouse, snd was all over every magazine cover

[@kev30631]

Not the world ,just MMA fans. The WWE wrestling fans kind of embraced her. Which proves that it isn't the same fan base. Average to hardcore wrestling fans don't follow UFC. It's very surface level. They don't buy the ppvs

Idk. I never liked her. If bitter beer face was a personality it would be her

[@jimbeam-ru1my]

No Chael, alleging CTE does not excuse you from criticism for the rest of your life. Ronda Rousey has a major personality flaw. She'll do anything and blame anyone but herself for her losses. Years later and she still hasn't come to terms with reality. She fought because she had a giant ego and thought she could beat Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match and she lost because she had no skill at standup whatsoever. She was a one trick pony and the girls figured her out.

[@TheWonderer7]

Thank you. These people in the forum have some short term memories....

[@Frip36]

Chael gets it. Trust me. Chael always gets it. It's just that sometimes we aren't clever enough to pick up on his subplots.

[@froschkenig]

Well, let's assume she really didn't want to continue for her sake, but carried on until breaking point and left exactly as you mentioned. I guess being a fighter and such an enormous star is difficult to handle. Some are better at it than others.

[@alexshtyn6336]

@froschkenig sure, but even then, leaving the way she did going into WWE and paying no respect to MMA makes it look like it was more about the adoration and attention she gets and less about the fans.

[@MOG0311]

Ronda's downfall was her coach and her ego. Her Judo was world class. But she got it fed in her head, and started believing she was a boxer. Could she have developed boxing skills over the years to sharpen and strengthen her game? Of course. But her aim should of always been to get the fight to the ground where she is at her best. The fact she tried to stand and trade with Holly and Amanda, shows she had yes men in her corner. No real coach who cared worth a damn would of told someone like Ronda "Yeah, go ahead and stand and trade with Holmes, you can out work her in the stand up." Then, after she got fucked up in the first round, she comes back to her stool and her coach says "You did great that round, keep it up" He's the one to blame really. She paved the way for women's MMA. But no, I do not believe she is even close to the greatest fighter that ever lived.

[@Yeshuaspupil]

Fr bro it was obvious to me that somebody was going to take her out exactly how it happened and I was surprised that it took as long as jt did. When Holly got signed and I saw her ko that black chick in invicta or whatever it was i knew if they fought Ronda would lose. She got in early as the sport was evolving still and I also think her aura affected a lot of those women who never experienced a stage like that.

[@MikeFlava]

@@kennymichaelalanya7134 No one is arguing that. We're saying she really wasn't that great of a fighter. She was good for her time...and her time was full of women who weren't good at fighting for the most part. As soon as she went against an actual world class WMMA fighter, she got merk'd. Then went another level up with Nunes and almost got killed Lol. No one can argue she was great for women's MMA and was a pioneer in WMMA...but she couldn't throw a punch to save her life and was eventually exposed.

@@questions9856 If she had faced the music like Ben Askren did after getting Flying Knee'd, she would have recovered just fine and also would have had a good career moving forward, just not as the champ. She definitely could have beaten *most* of the rest of the competition

[@questions9856]

@@Lootroq I agree. She had a pretty badass story and lets face it, put Women's MMA on the map. You don't always have to retire on top, but to run like she did and to become everything she spoke against was total irony. Still I was shocked at how happy so many people were once she lost.

[@Charliebronson19852]

She just finally fought an elite striker with good foot work, great range iq and good takedown defence. That is it, that is all.

[@Frip36]

From what I barely understood Chael trying to convey in this video. (I'm a bit dense). I think she was trying to blame her poor fighting ability and losses, on freaking CTE. Is that correct?

[@SilentStorm98]

@@Frip36 yeah basically and the fans wanting her to fight despite her not wanting to which is a horseshit excuse since she never fucking told anyone about that publically

I don't think we can or should forget Ronda's attitude at a given turn during her tenure. I was one of the people defending her amid a torrent of fans complaining about her poor sportsmanship and bad attitude. All this was well prior to her purported brain issues. Insults were flying while I was trying to put fires out in her defense. How could anyone exercise anything but what they express as they cast insults in the direction of those they claim are wicked without expressing wickedness themselves? In other words, if I refer to Chael Sonnen as an uppercase asshole, what then does that relegate me to but an uppercase asshole for having acted in a manner I'd accused Chael Sonnen of. You can't cry abuse while slapping someone who's never slapped you personally lest to relegate yourself an abuser. So, I defended until the cows finally came to roost at which point I, too, saw Ronda's actions as a motive for separation. The turn she refers to was the result of a process she had been forging over time via her own persona, cockiness, arrogance and egotism. In fact, she became so egotistical that she failed, and still fails, to see her own arrogance. Hence, "Pigs don't know pigs stink."

During a particular time she had a valid case but she was like Mike Tyson. If you could get her out the first round the chances of beating her substantially went up and her last few MMA opponents proved it

[@Based_Shogun]

Don't you ever compare Ronda to Mike again. Clown.

[@johncarey2535]

Some people share WITH you. Chael shares FOR you. These are not the same.

[@Frip36]

For the last 10 years he's been saying "share with you". He recently changed it to be grammatically correct for the medium. Sorry, man. You thought you were pretty observant and all. My bad.

I remember social media jabs really getting to me. Then I remembered that I was in control of what I read,didn’t read and how I let it affect me. One second it was a problem and the next it was solved.

[@Frip36]

Yeah well. When you're a big time athlete, it doesn't matter if you don't read Twitter remarks. You are GOING to be made aware of what the world is saying about you. Still, glad you got control. Seriously. We all used to get hurt in early social media days.

[@kev30631]

You, we, cant compare ourselves to famous celebrities in this social media culture. Anything online we might experience to magnified by a million and it follows you and your family into the real world and can cause massive trauma , humiliation , physical harm, and can't be releaved by going to an another highschool or state.

Great video Sonnen! You are great man...a great storyteller

[@stevenbaker7894]

She is a great Judoka and she deserves that respect. Her well manicured career was built on her marketability in an Era that needed stars. UFC still has stars but they have a better foundation now than they did then. I don't think Schaub would fight now if you compared UFC then to now.

[@gregkuhn7123]

LOL!

[@TheChiWithin]

I see all these people that are very new like for example I see people saying she ducked Cyborg?!? She called her out multiple times and Rhonda said she would fight her in a parking lot. The point is Rhonda did things for this sport that can never be measured. Look at all her wins and count how much time she spent in the cage! No one has done that! No one! Give this Legend her flowers! If she believes she is we should respect that! She was Vicious!!

[@samualpeterson1900]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@steelcelt5939]

Respect her claim that SHE is the greatest of all time? No. She needs to read history. Theogenes the Greek gladiator (a slave) was the greatest of all time - undefeated for 20 years,fighting often. She might make the list - maybe rated #30,000,000,000th - maybe #40,000,000,000th.

[@TheBlueDogMan]

Rhonda quit posting under another fake account!

[@StephenReeves-un6mu]

Ronda is the epitome of losing yourself in your vocation. In the end it never mattered how good she was because when she lost, she lost her identity and broke down. Personally, I think Ronda is not even close to the other female champs. Ronda trained to grapple and the fans made her huge.

The end of her career has proven that she’s not the greatest fighter ever. Great fighters get back up & at the very least are humbled by a massive defeat. Rhonda got kicked so hard she became a legend in her own mind.
