Amanda Nunes said she was going to destroy Ronda Rousey and she did just that last night but it was the way she did it that shocked the world. While most people assumed Rousey would be on point and want to redeem herself from her last fight, she instead wound up getting beat down even worse this fight and it was all over in just 48 seconds!

This was likely the last time anyone sees Rousey in the octagon as it has become clear she doesn’t have the same passion for fighting as she once did. Getting your ass kicked twice in a row to humble you will have that effect.
Nunes showed no fear and was confident she was the better fighter. As in her fight with Holly Holm, Rousey was forced to try and fight standing up and box, which is not her strong suit, and Nunes picked her apart. If the ref didn’t step in, Rousey would have spent the night in the hospital.
After the huge win, Nunes was back in the locker room area popping bottles of champagne to celebrate her well deserved win.

Nunes wasn’t done gloating. Just so Rousey knows she is a savage, she then went on social media and posted a meme of epic proportions. There was no caption needed.

Sheesh! All in all a brutal night for Rousey who as I mentioned before, will likely never fight again but the Hollywood money she has lined up will start to fade as well, along with her stardom.
