I felt locked in fight night. No fear just focused positive adrenaline. Love to my team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">My heart is heavy. I wanted to throw, battle, win, but I kicked when I should have moved and was down and done. If I hadn\u2019t tapped she would\u2019ve broken my arm, as it had begun to crackle. The disappointment of losing like that is very humbling.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Jon Jones and Cain Velasquez came up to my table after the fight. They set my mind straight. Jon said, \u201cYou haven\u2019t fought in 17 years? Do you know how big your balls have to be to get back in there after that long? Did you set some sort of record or something? Respect!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">That\u2019s exactly what I needed to hear from the best to ever to do it. I\u2019ve been in a caloric deficit for a year, training felt like swimming as hard as I could upstream. I can count on two hands the number of times I felt good training. It was physically the hardest thing I\u2019ve ever done taking the weight off while turning back into an athlete. I felt like a science experiment losing 100lbs. Every week the pressure of how to get that little bit off. I learned a little late how to do it healthier but trial by fire. The California Athletic Commission is great and one of the strictest in the world. They weighed me a week and a half before the fight, extra tests and scans, multiple drug tests. We weighed in and they weighed us the night of the fight to make sure we complied with the rehydration rules, which I passed all easily. I needed to go through this fight to implement permanent lifestyle changes and now I feel like this is just the beginning. I can\u2019t wait to see where I can push my body to go next.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">I\u2019m so glad the world got to experience this version of Ronda Rousey. I found a beautiful woman, wife, mother, daughter, sister and legend. I adore you lady. We made history, again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">I hope MVP MMA and Netflix continue on because they CRUSHED it. Respect where respect is due. Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul, it was such a great experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1teeyfa8 ls9zuh1\">Thank you ALL for showing your support. It\u2019s because of you we get to face our fears and live our dreams. With all my heart, thank you all.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cThis was one of the best rides of my life. I felt locked in fight night.
