    Watching good morning america and they teased a story about Rhonda Rousey and how she contemplated suicide after she lost. If you really considered suicide get some help, but please shut up you were over hyped and lost. Real champions come back more motivated if and when they lose they don't pout and ponder suicide leave that to people with real problems.

    Any thing to stay in the limelight I guess.

    Lol, I thought the exact same thing. I knew she was in trouble when she started believing the hype about herself and saying stupid crap like she could beat a male prof. boxer. She was in need of humility and she received it.

    And the quote: "I knew I needed to have his babies" in reference to looking up at Travis Browne in the hospital? Geesh.

    I respect the heck out of her talents as a martial artist. But I think she may have got her brains rattled before Holly's "kick heard 'round the world." ;)

    I think at this point it is all about the fame and the "fortune" that she hopes comes with that. Appears calculated to keep her relevant like the Webb girl that Brent Musburger made famous. More than her involved though, her handlers, managers, media, etc. all looking to cash in on her "fame". It's a business plain and simple. If we buy it they sell it.

    Did anyone not see it coming? She went Hollywood and started acting in movies...she got caught up in the glam and glitter of that lifestyle and you could just see that her intensity had dropped. I'm not taking anything from her though, she is one bad a** woman...but like many other elite athletes before her, once you get caught up in the star power, the production wanes.

    Hate to say a suicide comment was for attention, but picking the BS out of her interview was pretty easy.

    Would love to see the UFC keep her from fighting until she gets help. That would show her that everyone takes suicide seriously except her.

    Brock Lesnar said it best... "You have to learn how to lose before you can actually win."

    Jose Aldo got knocked out with one punch and he's still training and looking for a rematch. I'm not doubting Ronda's skills but i've never liked her as a person and i'm glad she disappeared for a while after her loss. Also she's delusional if she thinks she could beat Floyd Mayweather but couldn't handle Holm.

    Not saying she is a quitter but the saying "Quitters never win and winners never quitt" comes to mind.

    I'm sick of her. Never really thought she was that great to begin with. Just last years buzz story. That's probobly what's really upsetting to her; not that she lost, but that her 15 minutes are up.

    She is a great fighter, top 1 or 2 in the world. That is fact.

    However, she is a train wreck and I cannot stand to hear her stupid mouth.

    Let's be honest Ronda never stepped into the he ring with a elite athlete prior to Holm. The UFC has few elite level female fighters. Rhonda believed she was Billy badass, well until she fought Holm and actually met Billy badass. The UFC would be dumb if they let Rousey back before giving her a thorough phsyciatric examination.. She clearly suffers from grandoise disorder or some other personality disorder based on the delusions she believed prior to losing and her inability to cope with reality..

    So was Mike Tyson until Buster got ahold of him, Mike was never the same fighter after.
