Donald Trump is glad that Ronda Rousey lost her title as UFC women's bantamweight champion ...

Days earlier, Rousey, 28, pledged her support to Bernie Sanders in an interview with Maxim magazine. She added that if Sanders doesn't defeat Hillary Clinton in the primary, she'll vote for a third-party candidate ...

“Why does he have to say that, that she’s not a nice person.. “

Maybe he knows her personally? Maybe it is true? Maybe she’s a jerk?

She wasn’t a nice person even before her stupid Sanders comment. Her stint as a coach on The Ultimate Fighter put it on full display.

She got pounded like a cube steak.
She refused to touch gloves at the beginning.
Talked smack.
Got smacked.

Holm, the boxer had a longer reach and landed many damaging blows. Rousey was on queer street and fell after missing a punch, she had no defense for the jabs that kept landing on her face. It was hard to watch. Holm fought a smart fight, spun her around, and as she was turning back - whack, came the kick to the side of the head. That knocked her out and the ref smartly stopped the ground and pound. It was masterful, and Rousey looked like an amateur.

Holm negated Rousey’s wrestling and judo skills, and then pummeled her from a distance using her reach advantage.

Should be an interesting rematch if Rousey can get past that force field.

Why does he have to say that, that she's not a nice person.. because she supports Sanders? If he was honest, he'd say, she's not a smart person. I don't think Presidents should go that low. Sorry.

Hildy, Trump is crass and unpresidential, but his most extreme followers will make excuses for him no matter what he says or does. If you don't believe me, check your other replies.

If someone was to say that Ronda has an attitude problem, that someone would be correct.

I say that as a Rousey fan too.

I’m okay with it, there are other male MMA fighters who front a bad attitude that also enjoy watching, like Nick and Nate Diaz, but doing so will rub some people the wrong way.

I will also say that from what I saw this weekend, Holly Holm does not have a bad attitude, and seems like a really good lady.

How does Trump know she’s not a nice person? All we know from the Sanders endorsement is that she’s STUPID.

That jackass Michael Medved was clutching his pearls over Trump’s tweets about her. Oh, how I wish he’d be president, just to upset that old queen.

(He’s not really a queen, just a fancy-pants intellectual Republican.)

She tweeted some nasty stuff about Trump.

I tend to think that people who write or say nasty things about me aren’t nice people. Only human.

Trump’s tweets are pretty hilarious.

She's not supporting Trump. Reason enough.

As Rousey was regaining consciousness on the mat, Holly stooped down to see how badly Ronda was hurt. Ronda ended up in the hospital for the night.

Holly is known as “the Preacher’s Daughter” and not in a bad way - she gives credit to her trainers, her family and to supporters in ABQ and NM. Most of all she has an incredible training ethic and pushes herself to become the best she can while remaining grounded and personable.

The Sunday ABQ Journal’s lead at the top of the front page was “Happy Holly Day.” When she returns to ABQ she will be given a big reception (details forthcoming). Her win is touted as the biggest local sports story in the city’s history, equivalent to the NM Lobos winning the NCAA. BTW, football team beat heavily favored Boise State in Boise Saturday night and the basketball team beat downstate rival NM State Aggies too. A very good sports Saturday it was.

Pathological?

Cannot cure pathological.

But some do make money from it, but when they fall they hit the ground harder than normal people.

From the above story:

When that knockout came at the 59-second mark of the second round, and a bloodied, dazed and battered Rousey lay on the mat, Holm cut short the elation of the moment ...
The fighter, ... who just a day prior had her sincerity and kindness called fake by Rousey, kneeled beside the fallen former champion and waited until doctors gave the OK.
"I just wanted to make sure that she's healthy. She's OK," said Holm. "And just to show my respect. ...
