Ronda Rousey MMA’s most dominant female fighter, Ronda Rousey , retained her UFC women’s bantamweight title with a 34-second victory in the main event of Saturday’s “UFC 190: Rousey vs. Correia” card in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. While many had predicted a quick submission finish for the champion, Rousey instead showcased her improved boxing skills and knocked out challenger Bethe Correia with a right hook to the temple . Leading up to Saturday’s title tilt, Rousey (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) did not hide the fact that Correia (9-1 MMA, 3-1 UFC) had upset her by making derogatory comments about her family and about her friends in the “Four Horsewomen” stable. Correia earned her title shot by defeating “Horsewomen” members Jessamyn Duke and Shayna Baszler, and she continued to provoke Rousey with defamatory comments in the weeks prior to the fight.
