Rousey did, however, feature on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" Tuesday night to discuss her previous fight with Bethe Correia and her future bout with Holly Holm.
"I took my time," Rousey said about her finish of Correia, per Fox Sports. "It was longer than the last two combined. I could have finished it earlier because she went to the ground."
When asked about Holly Holm, she added: "This one's going to be a much longer fight because she's a 19-time boxing world champion with 100-percent takedown defense and, like, head-kick knockouts. She's undefeated and an amazing athlete, definitely the biggest threat to me.
“Especially on paper and stylistically, she's the type of fighter you have to be very, very patient with.”
