Ronda Rousey is scheduled to headline UFC 190 vs. potentially her best opponent yet, the undefeated Bethe Correia. She is 9-0 and known for going the distance, having won 78 percent of her fights by decision.
That might not matter come fight night though, because she has made Rousey very, very angry. Correia joked that she hoped Rousey wouldn’t kill herself after suffering the first loss of her career, and apparently was unaware that Rousey’s father committed suicide when she was eight years old.
Correia said she did not know about Rousey’s history with suicide, but that mattered little to the UFC women’s bantamweight champion.
@RondaRousey Never knew what happened to ur dad.I'm humble enough to ask u for forgiveness. Family is a godly bless to me. See u in #UFC190

Those tweets were from May, but time hasn’t healed the wound Correia ripped open. Rousey recently posted to Instagram a graphic displaying their records, recent fights, and fastest victories. Rousey’s recent fights haven’t even lasted one minute, but she promised to string out Correia’s suffering.
@BetheCorreia, your disrespect to my father, family and friends is not forgotten. I am your comeuppance. And this will not be over quickly. I will make sure you feel every moment of the lesson I'm going to teach you. #UFC190 #Aug1st #andSTILL A photo posted by rondarousey (@rondarousey) on Jun 21, 2015 at 9:36am PDT
Rousey defeated Alexis Davis at UFC 186 in 16 seconds, then followed that up by submitting Cat Zingano in 14 seconds. The only fighter to last more than one round vs. Rousey was another hated rival, Miesha Tate, whom she submitted via armbar 58 seconds into Round 3. Rousey broke Tate's arm the first time they met which came under the Strikeforce banner.
