As suspected, this fight was more one-sided than complex carbohydrates vs Matt Serra.
Ronda Rousey successfully defended her UFC women’s bantamweight belt by brutally knocking out Bethe Correia in less time than it took her to walk out to the Octagon.
Rowdy stormed through the challenger with heavy striking and eventually dropped her to the canvas just 34 seconds into the opening stanza.
The result saw the champion maintain her pristine 12-0 professional record and her 100% finish rate, while it marked the first loss of Correia’s career.
The reaction from fighters, personalities and the stars on social media was one of awe for the baddest woman on the planet. Even those who are gunning for her belt were full of praise for champion on Twitter.
I prayed for a few rounds and barely got half a minute. Ronda Rousey is devastating!! She is too much for these women. #UFC190
