Ronda Rousey has revealed the disappointment she felt after losing to Holly Holm at UFC 193 prompted some thoughts of suicide.
The former UFC bantamweight champion was shockingly knocked out in November last year and has been shielding herself from the public eye since.
But speaking on the The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Tuesday (h/t Paul Chavez of the Daily Mail), she opened up at length for the first time about the defeat and how she was initially distraught in the immediate aftermath. *Warning, expletive language used*:
And I was literally sitting there and thinking about killing myself and that exact second I’m like ‘I’m nothing, what do I do anymore and no one gives a s--t about me anymore without this.’
To be honest I looked up and I saw my man Travis was standing up there and I looked up at him and I was like, I need to have his babies. I need to stay alive.
