Rousey Faces Defeat in Contemporary Times

Once upon a time, Ronda Rousey dominated the UFC as a bantamweight champion, boasting an impeccable winning streak and a place among the top fighters. Unfortunately, consecutive knockout losses ultimately led to her retirement. Despite her self-proclaimed title as the greatest fighter of all time, UFC strawweight Vanessa Demopoulos holds a contrasting view. Fresh from a victory at UFC Vegas 92, Demopoulos argues that Rousey would struggle in today’s fiercely competitive division. She believes that the current UFC lineup is teeming with versatile fighters who have refined their skills, creating a vastly different environment from Rousey’s era of supremacy. Although Rousey is now retired, she continues to stand as a significant figure in MMA history; however, her stance on the sport has sparked some criticism. Demopoulos is gearing up for her imminent return to the Octagon later this year.
