Det har pratats mycket om Ronda Rousey den senaste tiden och man undrar nu vad som kommer att hända med henne efter förlusten mot Holly Holm under UFC 193.
Chael Sonnen anser att Rousey skapades utav media och att folk började tro på hennes hype eftersom hon konstant syntes överallt i media. Enligt honom kommer en returmatch mot Holm inte att se så annorlunda ut.
Det här berättar Sonnen, via ”MMAFighting”:
That division is still so shallow and so new and when the media got behind it, there was so much hype and belief, It’s like anything else — and Dan, I’m not above this, either — when you hear something enough times, you start to think that it’s real.
Things should become clear … after you see them. I wasn’t good at predicting this one, either. The thing with Ronda is she is created by the media. That was a media sensation.
You did have a lot of fighters coming out and saying, ’I want a Ronda Rousey technique video, because I want to learn those skills.’ She has great skills, but so does everybody else on the roster.
As for what another loss for Rousey means to UFC, while it won’t be seen as a positive, the promotion will continue to thrive because as he puts it, ”when one star goes out, another is born.
Sonnen tror att det kommer att bli väldigt svårt för Holm att bli lika stor som Rousey.
I don’t think that Holly Holm — as great as she is physically — I don’t think she’s going to be able to transcend cultures like Ronda did
Ronda was a very unique personality. She’s very likable, she’s very marketable. She does and says the right things. Holly is just a really kind and sweet person that’s a really good fighter. I think yeah, you are going to lose a little momentum.
