Lolo Jones defends herself after being ‘attacked’ over Ronda Rousey ‘joke’

Lolo Jones again found herself in the middle of a controversy over the weekend as a result of her often provocative social media commentary, but attempted to defend herself by insisting she was merely joking.

Jones was run through the social media wringer after she tweeted her reaction to Ronda Rousey again dispatching of an opponent with relative ease, this time by putting an abrupt end to her bout Bethe Corriea in a mere 34 seconds on Saturday night at UFC 190.

“How much are these chicks paid to get knocked out in seconds? I can’t fight but I’ll prolong it and run circles for at least a minute,” Jones tweeted.
