Ronda Rousey is apparently still bitter about her upset loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193.
In an appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience (via TMZ Sports), fellow UFC fighter Miesha Tate disclosed that Rousey confronted Paige VanZant at a VIP event after she found out that VanZant had congratulated Holm on her big upset win.
Complete video of Tate's interview can be seen below:
TMZ has since confirmed Tate's story after speaking with "multiple sources."
Rousey hasn't been in the Octagon since losing to Holm by second-round knockout, but Tate has kept busy during the former champion's absence.
Tate unseated Holm and captured the women's bantamweight belt via rear-naked choke at UFC 196 on March 5, and she'll be back in action July 9 at UFC 200 against Amanda Nunes as she seeks to emerge victorious in her first title defense.
Should Tate successfully retain the strap, it could set up a highly anticipated third act with Rousey.
The two have a history that dates back to March 2012, when Rousey first defeated Cupcake by first-round armbar submission in Strikeforce. A year-and-a-half later, Rousey followed up with a third-round submission victory over her nemesis.
In a recent appearance on Fox Sports Live (h/t MMAMania.com's Michael Stets), Tate said she'd welcome one more showdown with Rousey as she eyes revenge.
"I sure hope so," Tate said when asked if she'd like to participate in one of Rousey's final fights, per Stets. "It's gotta be. I feel like I have unfinished business there and I feel like I've finally hit the full balance of my career and I'm in a really good place right now."
Tate previously told UFC Tonight that Rousey would be out until "November or December," according to ESPN.com's Brett Okamoto, but if the current bantamweight champ can dispatch Nunes in July, she could set up one of the biggest rubber matches in the sport's history.
