She thinks Rogan turned on her because he did his job and accurately described what her fighting weaknesses are. She’s still too emotional to accept the truth, and doesn’t seem to understand it has nothing to do with how they feel about her personally. Hell, he told one of his close friends he wasn’t good enough to compete at that level, so there’s no reason to think he’s turning on her
She's a pure egoist and hasn't learned a thing in 10 years, bet it still feel likes yesterday she got her ass knocked out
he did turn on her, went from kissing her ass to hating, like a typical sheep like yourself
Dude exactly, Rogan is an analyst and his analysis on her was spot on, everyone knew the moment she fought someone with real skill she was done, that's why in the nuñez fight everyone knew she would get murdered, like what does she want Rogan to do lie?
This is all part of the "dog Pile" on joe Rogan now since his presence has gotten HUGE with his podcast! Joe is not playing the game of saying what the mainstream media wants to be said. He speaks the truth from his heart and mind. His opinions from logical standpoints, nothing more, nothing less.
Rousey still cannot accept she brought this all on herself. Her pro victim hood, 8 and a half years after losing to Holm is one of the biggest copes ever.
Remember how she wouldn’t ever shake an opponents hand, talked about their looks, their family, everything really. She was a real piece of work back then. But she was young and thrown into a spotlight fairly quickly so I somewhat understand it. Still appreciate her athletic abilities and enjoyed watching her fights.
I would give her the “she was young & couldn’t handle the spotlight” excuse if she came back, humbled herself & admitted her faults….but she refuses. Instead of giving Holly & Amanda their props, admitting her mistakes & moving on, she’s still making excuses & playing the victim. It’s been like NINE years & she’s STILL trying to justify her loss to holly, instead of just owning it. It’s embarrassing.
Ronda! You reap what you sow!
She's so annoying.🥱
@@jermainewright1757☝️🤡
☝️🤡
Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes will forever be my heroes for ending her UFC career
The problem was that Ronda bought into her own BS
There are so many times so many other fighters could have complained or made excuses but they dont because of respect for their opponent. You issue your excuse and just dismantle all the hardwork and training they did to win a fight and you want to descredit them. Point blank... You signed up saying you was healthy to fight and you loss. You wanna cry injury, do it before the fight. If you willingly go into a fight injured then accept the consequences like a professional.
Ronda had no problem with all the praise that was heaped on her when she was winning. She was a poor sport and even dissed her opponents after she beat them. Once she lost and people started questioning her abilities/stopped giving her absolute adoration, she took her ball and went home. She is a textbook narcissist.
@@jermainewright1757 I don't see how you can say that when it's clear from this interview she's still salty at Joe Rogan and others in the media for "turning on her" after her losses. She's also still delusional and making excuses for why the losses occurred. If she gets anything but adoration from fans/the media she loses her mind.
Ronda had a dominant and fantastic run in MMA, until the level of opponent went up a notch and caught up.
THANK YOU, she was fighting retired housewives and YMCA ladies taking Karate, once she fought some skilled women the gig was up. She was/is rude , narcissistic, delusional to the 9th power and a poor sportswoman for years. She forgets all that like we were not there to witness this. Look in the mirror and see your biggest problem.
@@user-my5hb6gj1y Absolutely! 100% She was a one trick pony for lack of a better term. I love the arm bar but when the competition went up she lost then lost her mind!
@@user-my5hb6gj1ywasn’t one of her opponents an accountant who took up pro fighting like the year before her fight w Ronda? 😂
She names her animals, gets to know their unique personalities and then eats them. I can’t get my head around that.
Because she's a moron.😂
sounds a little insane, and I'm no vegetarian.
Have you been to a farm before?
She names her animals and then has fun with her kids eating them. Sounds like a horror movie, a psychopath.
my aunt ate her family pet pig and shes one of the worst people I know
She lost me when she turned into such a poor sport, cry baby, and narcissist. Come on Chris there are real athletes out there to interview.
Touch grass. She couldn't do it anymore.
@@monotech20.14she could never do it when the quality of opposition improved. Nothing to do with concussions. It's pathetic that you attack someone when you have no knowledge.
She was always an extremely bitter, sour person but she would become the biggest sore loser in MMA history. Her entitlement is insane.
@@MunkeyBeans1082 I think you're just projecting because you'll never have the balls to achieve anything close to what she has in fighting.
wasn't a poor sport anywhere, shook both amanda and hollys hand. never made any excuses, she waited years to explain her injuries, her taking her own loss hard doesn't effect you, so that just a moronic reason, maybe you should try achieving anything like she has, oh wait you can't
No one turned against her. Those she think "turned against her" just spoke the harsh reality. I've never heard Rogan or anyone of importance said she wasn't totally dominant during her reign. But that was because female MMA was on such a low level. Thats the truth. For every 1000 guys that even thought of going on his first MMA practise, only like 1 girl would so ofc would the development and progress of female MMA go super fast once it gained popularity
I get what she's saying, but she went in trying to box with Holly. It was clear that she thought she could. I loved Ronda, and the concussions are real. Also, Joe talks good about her all the time. Most people don't talk shit on her.
Thank you
I will always love Ronda
Good morning Chris & Team! 🇫🇷🇺🇸
Good Morning Chris
Excellent podcast Chris and Ronda Rousey 👏. Really glad I finally had time to watch! I have a lot of respect for her as a person and I 'm glad she has a family and a life outside of WWE. She really glows when she talks about her daughter and she found the right person to be with! They have a lot in common and wishing her well in all her endeavors. Let us know how those steaks taste 😋.
She's an absolute pylon
@@MsSuckmynutz yeah right whatever you say 🙄
@@debrabelaska3175 yes, support someone who puts themselves on that pedestal. All I've heard from her is excuses for everything.
@nicksstuff603 0 seconds ago She assaulted a previous boyfriend then later bragged about it in her first book. She even laughed about it when promoting it and falsely claimed she was legally justified. She refuses to take responsibility for her losses and give her opponents credit. She even failed to say anything to her many fans after her last loss. Do you know how much UFC tickets cost? Here she is on her sympathy tour making more excuses. She is an embarrassment to female athletes and a prime example how NOT to behave. She is truly awful and should have been punished by the UFC and probably incarcerated. Opinions like yours are not only ignorant, they are damaging to the next generation of women.
Love you Ronda ❤️
The MMA media didn't turn on her, they simply reported the obvious -- her coach was a charlatan, made her believe she was a world class striker, and costed Ronda her career. It's also baffling to basically everyone that Ronda would even believe, trust, or want to train with Edmond. Being objective and stating the obvious isn't "turning" on someone, lol. And honestly, it was truly bizarre how Ronda merely wanted to beat up on far less capable women, rather than actually compete, evolve, and take another crack at someone that had bested her in the past. I'm not sure if she's just too stubborn to admit that Edmond was a terrible coach or what, but she quit the second the going got tough.
Ronda had a hard fall off the pedestal so when she took it bad I gave her some grace. But she's delusional about her skills, she was rather one dimensional as a fighter, sje stuck with Coach thatbhad NO idea what he was doing and women's MMA grew exponentially during her reign as champ. She's like the women's version of Royce Gracie, AWESOME until the other women learned how to fight. BuT she did open the door can't take that from her....and not just MMA....women's sports in general. They know the potential of Caitlin Clark, because they learned it from Ronda Rousey.
achieved more than you ever will
If you don’t like Ronda and Travis something is wrong with you inside .
This is a great interview. It is conversational, as though she's just spending time with you in the living room. Ronda Rousey presents herself very well. I don't sense a big ego (many champions have huge egos), and she is intelligent who stitches her sentences well. And I can sense that she is enjoying her new adventures in farming because she is learning. She seems to enjoy the learning process with a passion. Great job on the interview Chris! You've made me a fan of yours with this Channel.

Didn't think I would like it as much as I did. Great podcast enjoyed listening to Ronda Rousey and like outside WWE. She is an amazing athlete and her husband Travis Brown is a big dude. Both have wonderful careers and now they are living their dream life. In a few years they will be going to move to Hawaii and their dream home. Blue prints are ready. Good for them, and wishing them a bigger family and much happiness
What Ronda does is blame every negative thing that has ever happened to her on everything and everyone but herself. This is why she stays away from all MMA media and talks to people like Chris Cuomo, she gets to say things that an mma fan or journalist would question like these excuses ( CTE ) for losing. We know she’s taken the least amount of brain damage in comparison to the rest. She claims she doesn’t care about attention and fake love but she takes every opportunity to get it when possible like writing books to get it or joining the largest popularity contest in the world ( The WWE ) outside of running for president. How much do you wanna bet that 80% of the book is her giving the world her grief, whining, moaning and self soothing over not currently being in the conversation and attempting to convince herself that she’s as happy as can be living in seclusion far far away from all of the haters.
very cool chick, i love farming and relate to getting to know the animals, good on you Rhonda....
Ronda continues to be one of the most insufferable fighters ever. It's ironic that in coming back after all this time and doing interviews to try and clear things up, she's only reminding us why we all despised her so much to begin with.
Ronda you were given this talent & gifts from Jesus Christ & Now you are tested what your doing with that fame+$$$$$! Just be great full for what You had & where it came from! Yes you are A Pioneer for women's MMA/ UFC! You are truly blessed! Amen!

This was a great interview! I had the opportunity to meet Ronda in Vegas before UFC 300. She is an amazing human being who has accomplished so much at such a young age. Looking forward to all of her future endeavors. Halfway through Our Fight and it is shaping up to be an incredible, insightful memoir.

Was she responsible for the MMA growth of female fighters? Yes. Was she a one trick pony that did not adapt then saw the sport pass her by? Also yes.
Why in the world is this lunatic Fredo still running around loose thought he was locked up for all the trouble he caused
Rogan hyped ronda for a long time but then came to realize she's not that person..."the greatest of all time "..and told the truth but ronda can't handle the truth ..
Mad respect for investing your money in farming/ranching to pass down to your family. Great values come with that lifestyle too.

Big respect for her passion for her ranch, she's a lot more likeable than the MMA media makes her out to be. Great interview
No she's not she's a whiny pathetic excuse for a human.
Fredo is as. Fredo does. Back in the basement and pretend to quarantine basement boy
Yep. Shut up Fredo you fraud 😂
Can't fix Fredo
Why’s her face so red?
Rousey and Fredo - legends in their own mind. I crack a cold one and get a smile on my face whenever I reminisce Ronda being pummeled by Holm and Nunes. Chris, why don’t you interview your deviant criminal Brother?
RR
Ronda if you’re reading this I want to say “ thank you for what you brought to the MMA community”. I understand the fight with Holm was devastating both physically and emotionally for you and as an MMA veteran you're entitled to walking away without having to explaining your reason to anyone. Thank you Ronda, you’re always a champion in my book!!!!
Nice job quoting your current conversation as it happens. Lol. "Derp derp you're my champion."
She didn't read it, and if she did she thinks you're an idiot.
she's quite narcissistic, that's one reason why people react this way to her
Chris, buy the sunscreen. I don't know how red you really are, as you may have makeup on to tone it down.
She is so full of herself that acknowledging she lost to better fighters is not possible for her. She makes up far fetched excuses that she lived with concussions for 10 years and it was that that caused her to lose to Holm🤦🏽♂️. She loved the media more than anyone ever until she had to face a loss then all the sudden she hated all the attention. Pretty self serving🙄
Spot on! Couldn't handle the downside of fame and hasn't learned anything in the 10 years since her downfall
achieved more than a sad hater like you ever will, yeah cause you really know more about her injuries than HERSELF, zero ground to call them excuses, when she literally waited a decade to speak about it
@@honeybadgerftuw It took her a decade to come up with it. Where’s the doctors records. Is she self diagnosing? Is she a doctor? Where is the MRI results? If you’re gonna claim this bs then provide some evidence, b/c ppl with illnesses or injuries that exist and last decades ALWAYS can easily show proof that at minimum they’ve been diagnosed and normally have received some treatment. But if your just crying about and grossly exaggerating normal injuries ppl who fight for a living experience b/c you can’t accept that you got beat by much better fighters then you’re a narcissistic cry baby. Narcissism would be a barrier to acceptance of losses.
So many negative comments so let me add a positive comment! Rhonda did so much for the UFC industry. She was highly accomplished! Regardless how things went down she will go down in history as not only being a great fighter but starting MMA for women. No one can take that away from Her.
Just when I start to like her she goes ahead and completely craps on Holly Holm by making excuses and then tries to act like she can beat Amanda nunes, and how exactly did Joe turn on her? ......
@@jermainewright1757 ok brother, I can tell you've never watched MMA in your life, if you did you would know why the entire MMA community is calling out her crap.
@jermainewright1757 dude what are you talking about. No one turned on this woman, Joe rogan is an MMA analyst who gave an analisys on why she got knocked the F out, and a great one too, she was exposed, and people moved on to the next great fighter, no one turned on her it happens to every fighter, one day you are on top, the other you are not, she has been on a tour of podcasts trashing ufc wwe and everyone in between and making excuses on why Holly kicked her face off, if she had just been talking about her farming or whatever no one from the community would've batted an eye, but when you have a nasty attitude like she does you attract bad vibes, this woman is bitter and angry and talking shit about everyone she ever worked with that's why fans treat her the way they do, you can't find a soul that talks shit about Holly Holm, Amanda nunes, Cat zingano, etc. Because they are humble respectful women not nasty bitter hags like rhonda
@@jermainewright1757 bro who turned on her? No one turned on her, it's the sport, and it happens to every athlete, one day you are on top one day you are not, analysts analyze, that's what Joe Rogan did he gave an analysis on how she was exposed and it a great one, if her book wasn't filled with hate and excuses no one would even bat an eye, but she is out there acting as if it wasn't for the concussion she would've kept thrashing through everyone, take a look at why none of the women Rhonda beat are still around, its because they'd be getting thrashed by the current roster, Rhonda was great at Judo, but it seemed she never bothered getting better at all the other aspects of MMA so when someone like holly or Amanda came thru, of course she was going to get exposed, her giving excuses on why holly knocked her the F out is just pathetic, and as far as the fans treat her the way they do, like are you kidding me? Look at her mean and nasty attitude anytime she opens her mouth, she was always a mean nasty hag of course you are only going to get bad vibes back, look at how fans love girls like holly, Amanda, even new comer Kayla Harrison, because as great as they are they are also humble and treat their fans with love. I think you know nothing about this woman and are only going based off this interview so do some research.
Best interview yet Chris. Keep up the great job sir 👏

She seems really happy. It’s nice to see.
Nobody cares about her .😂
Why because you don’t?
I'm assuming this is sarcasm. The content of her interviews indicates to me that she's got a lot of baggage and is mostly focused on her regrets
@jermainewright1757 She brought up her past. It's the only thing anyone cares about. Nobody cares about her WWE career that's fizzled, no one cares about her goats or whatever. Only way she can stay relevant

@@jermainewright1757 she is not been honest.
@@jermainewright1757 I am a fan of hers from her MMA days and I can tell you most fighters are concussed at various points in their careers . This is just her way of making excuses .
@@jermainewright1757 why do you keep making excuses for here. All athletes in combat sports get concussions. And she is talking about her ufc fights. If she was in that bad of a shape then she should have never fought .
She could have been a plummer or Doctor, she decided on a profession very violent.
Fredo could have been a honest person with integrity, he decided to pretend to quarantine for a paycheck. Mockingbird Media M0REON
A doctor ? she has a speech problem she didn’t even graduate high school ?
I like Ronda much more now than I did then...she had a bitchy, self-centered, know-it-all, "star" attitude about her and was very unpleasant to a lot of people...but I guess you sort of have to be that way in order to go as far as she did in professional prizefighting...she's much mellower nowadays and being a mom probably helps ; brings her back down to earth. I think Ronda can still do anything she sets her mind to...even getting the belt back.
BWAHAHAHA! Look at Mr. Fake weights Fredo trying to be cool by having Rousey on😂😂😂
Chris Cuomo is such a pathetic joke. These 2 are too perfect to listen to each others BS...
bunch of BS
