#3 Bethe Correia vs. Ronda Rousey

Rousey got the last laugh – as usual

Ronda Rousey has always had a target on her back, which is natural given her overwhelming success throughout her mixed martial arts career. However, nobody had quite pushed her buttons like Bethe Correia did in the build up to their fight at UFC 190.

Correia made comments about how she was going to destroy Ronda, even stating that she hoped Rousey wouldn’t commit suicide following the fight because it was going to be that devastating for her.

The Brazilian laughed while making the comments, and it seems bizarre that she thought this was a good idea when heading into a fight with a woman who had literally been unstoppable for years. Naturally, Ronda came out with the victory courtesy a devastating knockout, and the fight was brought to a close after just 34 seconds of the first round. Devastating.

Back over to the men now for a heavyweight classic.
