Maybe not feel icky but we\u2019re going to feel like we wasted our time. How many times are we going to do that? At some point it\u2019s going to play itself out. Probably if anything it\u2019s all going to help the UFC. People are going to become fight fans and they\u2019re like \u2018I\u2019m sick of this shit, can I just watch a real godd*amn fight?

Clearly she was done fighting and had no intention to fight again and then she gets a call and they offer her enough money where she\u2019s like \u2018Okay, well, I\u2019ll do that.\u2019 It\u2019s hard to believe it\u2019s anything other than a paycheck. Is there anything that would get you interested? Even if they were at each other\u2019s throats and talking all this shit, attacking each other\u2019s families and throwing chairs at the press conference, you\u2019d still be like \u2018you two aren\u2019t really going to give us that great of a fight.\u2019 You can cat fight that shit all you want, there\u2019s nothing exciting about this.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cHow many times are we going to walk away from a fight \u2014 like with Jake Paul and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":624012,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[570],"tags":[64,63,786,40762,785,250320,85,1396],"class_list":["post-624011","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-fighting","tag-latest-ufc-mma-news","tag-mma","tag-ronda-rousey-vs-gina-carano-netflix-news-hub","tag-sports","tag-ufc-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/624011","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=624011"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/624011\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/624012"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=624011"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=624011"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=624011"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
