After returning from a 13-month hiatus, fans expected Rousey to come back with a vengeance – refreshed and ready to take back her belt. That idea went out the window as Nunes dominated the fight within the first few punches. The referee ended the match after Rousey took a few powerful blows and appeared to be on the brink of consciousness. Though she initially protested the ref’s decision, a tearful Rousey left the cage head down and Nunes proudly accepted the championship title.

Rousey, known for her cocky, take no prisoners persona in and out of the ring, had previously been the face of the Women’s UFC division. Endorsement and movie deals were pouring in by the boatload back when Ronda was an undefeated champ. That all ended when Ronda was taken down effortlessly by Holly Holm last year.
Rousey has yet to comment on the loss or, but of course, social media always got jokes. Take a look at some funny memes from last night’s match:
