Ronda Rousey: I wasn’t sure if the women’s division could survive without me

With Wrestlemania 34 just a week-and-a-half away, former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is the talk of the town once again, but not for the usual reasons. During her WWE-organized press tour this week, Rousey had some tense moments with media personalities Max Kellerman and Mike Golic when asked about her MMA career, specifically her losses and subsequent retirement from the sport.

This is well-known behavior from the 31-year-old California native, as Rousey has refused to talk about her last two fights, back-to-back losses to Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes, even imposing a media blackout in the leadup to her fight with Nunes.
