JAKARTA - Former UFC legend Ronda Rousey streamed the game and raised his complaint against the fan base that supported him from 2011 to 2016.
Rousey's last MMA fight was a TKO defeat to Amanda Nunes at the UFC 207 on December 30, 2016. It was a sad two-time defeat considering Rousey is the most dominant female fighter in the UFC and has held a 12-0 winning record.
Shortly after, in 2017, Rousey signed a full-time contract with WWE and did not look back. Since then, other female fighters have decorated the Octagon, and UFC fans have also not turned their backs.
Some time ago, the former 2008 Olympic judo bronze medalist hosted a streaming game where he played various kinds of video games and talked about many topics. And the most notable is his relationship with UFC fans.
"I would say that WWE fans care more about wrestlers than UFC fans who care about fighters. UFC fans lack respect for veterans and sports legends than WWE fans," the 35-year-old said.
"When you're not on top, you die for them. Where WWE fans are like, 'this is the person who did this 20 years ago' and still very excited while UFC fans are now like... 'Anderson Silva is annoying. Georges St-Pierre is annoying.' These are the people who raise sports and pave the way for others," Rousey explained further.
Although Rousey does not call himself a marginalized fighter, most likely the sentiment he has stems from feelings of being neglected by himself.
"I don't see UFC fans having the same respect for people bringing sports to places like WWE fans. I'm not saying it's really non-existent, I'm just saying I see more respect for legends in WWE fans than UFC fans."
