After the ESPY awards, Ronda Rousey gloated over winning Best Fighter over Floyd Mayweather
Her clip from after the show went viral, in which Rousey commented:
I wonder how Floyd feels being beat by a woman for once. I’d like to see you pretend to not know who I am now.
Rousey said that the feud between the two started last year when Mayweather claimed he didn’t know who Rousey (who he said was a “he”) was.
She calls him out again:
I know for damn sure he knew who I was. He was running against me for ‘Best Fighter’ that year and he had signed MMA fighters, so his feigned ignorance was meant to really be a snarky remark to me. I don’t let those kind of things slide, but I’m also a patient girl. I’m not the kind of chick you make snarky remarks about. I waited a whole year to say something. And you know what? If I didn’t win ‘Best Fighter’ this year, I would have waited two years or three years. It got a big reaction, and I’ve got a fight to sell. So great timing, huh? I’m not dumb.
Rousey’s next fight will be in just a few weeks against Bethe Correia at UFC 190 which takes place August 1, 2015 at the HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro.
