The fact that Ronda Rousey e Beth Pitbull do not get along in any way is not news to anyone, and, precisely for this reason, the Brazilian's reaction to the ex-champion's crushing defeat to Holly holm was so awaited. In addition to the message on social media celebrating the knockout suffered by her rival, Bethe gave more details about how she celebrated her tormentor's setback at UFC 190, a few months earlier.

“If I don't say I jumped for joy, I'd be lying. This shows that everyone who is on top eventually falls. Not that I'm a Holm fan, but I'm anti-Ronda, there's no way I can support her after everything we've been through. A lot of things happened behind the scenes, that personal friction was very real, strong. I don't like her, and she doesn't like me. Ronda spent the entire camp talking about respect and made that joke with Holm at the weigh-in. I was happy that she fell right after me, in a much more humiliating way than mine. If I had had a whole round with Ronda, she would have gotten hit a lot. During the time I fought her, I hit her well, imagine if I had fought longer? Ronda suffered five minutes of humiliation with Holly”, said the Brazilian, on the website of the “Combate” channel.

Bethe also said that Ronda's fall was even more remarkable than her defeat to her rival, because, according to her, the North American gave her best and was supplanted by Holly holm. “It was much worse than my defeat to Ronda, because I didn't feel like I fought, it was too quick. I saw Ronda do her best, try everything and not land a single blow. Holly passed the tractor. Ronda got beaten up a lot, nothing went right and, on top of that, she was taken down by a boxer. An Olympic medalist being taken down in her area by a white belt… I'm not surprised that Ronda has been missing until now. I've been through this situation, of losing and having the world criticize me. Feeling like you can hit someone, but not being able to apply even a single blow, being humiliated, was much worse than in my case”, she guaranteed.

At 32, Beth Pitbull He has a record of nine wins and one loss as a professional. The Brazilian hasn't fought since last August, when she lost her unbeaten record to Ronda in the main fight of UFC 190, in Rio de Janeiro (RJ).
