Ronda Rousey stepped into Bethe Correia’s wheelhouse and did not blink.
Rousey knocked out Correia in dramatic fashion to retain the Ultimate Fighting Championship women’s bantamweight crown in the UFC 190 “Rousey vs. Correia” headliner on Aug. 1 at the HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro. She needed just 34 seconds to complete her night’s work.
Correia never stood a chance. Rousey walked through her punches, pinned the Brazilian brawler along the fence and fired away with rights and lefts until she was no longer standing. A right hand connected on the Pitbull Brothers rep’s temple and sent Correia crashing face-first to the canvas, electrifying onlookers.
