UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey made a surprising announcement earlier this week, stating that she may retire from mixed martial arts in two years.
Rousey told MMA Junkie. “I do four-year cycles. I think I’ve got two years left in me, realistically, if I’m going to do this like an Olympic run.”
Ronda Rousey responds to “everyone giving her sh*t for hypothetically retiring”
Following the hypothetical retirement statement, the former Olympian was spammed on Twitter from many haters.
So on Saturday Rousey decided to fireback at those critics.
To everyone giving me shit for”hypothetically retiring”someday-ill retire when I feel like my mark has been made and Im ready to make babies
