Call her a Diva or just flat out a B%*^h!. Ronda Rousey is loved and hated by millions across the globe. Rousey became the first woman to earn an Olympic medal in judo before beginning her legacy in MMA. As her craft focused on judo, Ronda was able to transition that fighting base into the Octagon.

Rousey's record is 12- 2 in which 9 of those victories were by submission. Rousey showed her toughness with an attitude towards an opponent in every interview, or press conference. Rousey also called out Floyd Mayweather stating that she would beat him up.

This later backfired on Rousey as she was dropped via head-kick by Holly Holm. Later her fans started to back off of claims as her being the baddest woman on the planet and the questions began to rise. After suffering her first defeat, Rousey went on a one-year hiatus away from the spotlight; fans and the MMA family did not take this well because fans feel she didn't handle her loss like a true champion.

Her next fight came against the "Lioness" Amanda Nunes in which she suffered one of the worst losses in UFC history. Now, Rousey is on another hiatus and no one knows when she will come out and face the music again.
