Julianna Pena: Ronda Rousey’s Title Shot is Bullsh*t

October 13, 2016 | Posted by Larry Csonka

– UFC’s Julianna Pena (8-2 MMA, 4-0 UFC) recently spoke with mmafighting.com, and she revealed that she is not happy that Ronda Rousey is getting an immediate title shot upon her return. She not only blasted Rousey getting the title shot, but also teased leaving the UFC…

“It’s bullsh-t. That spoiled brat has gotten everything handed to her, and she’s getting everything handed to her again. It’s bullsh-t. I have no idea. Never in the history have I ever heard of somebody have a no-controversy brutal knockout, then quit the sport, and then comeback and get a title shot right away. The girl is mentally weak and Amanda Nunes is going to f–king knock her out and expose her ass. She’s literally the worst fighter on the roster, and I can’t stomach the fact that I’m not getting the title shot. I don’t know how they conduct business over there, but they’re going to do what they want no matter what, so there is not really much I could do. Back to the drawing board I guess.

Maybe I’ll go fight for Combate [Americas] or something because it sounds like they want to pay me serious money and actually give me a belt right off the bat just like they did with Ronda in the UFC. They just handed Ronda a belt, and Combate will hand me a belt, so I don’t know, we’ll see how that goes. It’s definitely something that I would consider, you know. It’s starting to become a fake toy belt [the UFC belt]. I fight for money, I’m a prize fighter. So if somebody else wants to give me more money, I’ll gladly sit down at the negotiating table and see what’s going on and what’s being offered.”
