#3 Ronda Rousey

Rousey looked in incredible shape before the Nunes fight

Ronda Rousey was considered to be the best MMA fighter in the world before her shock defeat at the hands of Holly Holm in 2015. Rowdy was the UFC’s golden girl and her confidence looked absolutely shattered after said defeat.

After disappearing off the face of the planet for a year, Rousey announced her return to the Octagon against Amanda Nunes in 2016. In addition to this announcement came pictures of Rousey’s incredible new body.

While pictures circulated the internet of her overweight frame in the month’s following her loss to Holm, Rousey had undergone a dramatic transformation to show off a sleek new frame that looked ready to kill.

Here are some before and after pictures:

After: Rousey in the build up to the Nunes fight

Unfortunately, it seems that her mental preparation and technical preparation was nowhere near as good as her physical one, as she got destroyed by Nunes in just 46 seconds. Tough luck, Ronda.
