Runors have been flying around all over the Internet since late last night about Ronda Rousey’s next possible opponent and it’s time we here at WrestlingNewsBlog join the party. The person that is said to be next in line is undefeated Brazilian Bethe Corriea. Bethe is currently 9-0 with two back to back wins over Rousey’s friends and training partners Jessamyn Duke and Shayna Baszler.
Clearly there is no love lost between these two. Bethe has even called Rousey a “selfish champion because she leaves to make movies and doesn’t really care about the sport”
Rousey fired back saying that “if she wasn’t doing all this talking she wouldn’t be getting recognized so she’s doing a good job for herself. In one interview when asked about Corriea beating her teammates Rousey said “I’m the mamma bear and I will f*** her up”
The rumored show down between the two is targeted to take place at UFC190 on August 1st from Corriea’s home counry of Brazil. Although the UFC hasn’t confirmed this bout it’s more then likely to happen for 3 reasons. 1. Rousey said she expected to return in August. 2. Rousey said she would want nothing more then to beat corriea in her hometown and 3. Right now Corriea is the most logical opponent based soly on the history between the two.
I know one things Forsure if this fight does indeed happen I’ll be chearing on Rousey as she dives into enemy territory.
