Following a victory at this past weekend’s massive UFC 190 event, women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey has left her belt in Brazil – but for a good reason. Rousey[/autotag] (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) made quick work of challenger Bethe Correia (9-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) in the Aug. 1 pay-per-view headliner, which took place at Rio de Janeiro’s HSBC Arena. Prior to her 34-second win (watch the Rousey vs. Correia video highlights ), Rousey said she planned to leave the belt in Brazil – since Brazilian-born Correia wouldn’t be able to do it herself. “I’ve decided that after I win (at UFC 190), I’m going to make sure that when I have the belt, and I won’t take it home with me,” she said this past week
