Submission Radio.<\/a><\/p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s jealousy,\u201d Abdelaziz said. \u201cKhabib is just an icon. Ronda\u2026 when she was champion, she was a great athlete, and she beat the girls that were not athletic, but when she met Amanda, she lost. She can\u2019t compare herself to Khabib. She\u2019s not like a GOAT, she\u2019s just unhappy.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very simple: If you think you\u2019re better than Khabib, you should come back. Kayla Harrison, your old friend, I\u2019m sure will be very happy to open the door and give you an ass-whooping.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t really have a problem with Ronda but I was very shocked to hear [her talk] about Khabib like that. Khabib, he never talked bad about nobody. But Khabib was a legit superstar, an icon, undefeated, undisputed champion. He\u2019s always going to be a champion. He has no highlight reel of getting knocked out by Holly Holm. But in a way, if it\u2019s going to make her feel better, sleep better, she can say whatever she wants, but I personally have nothing against her. But she should never talk about Khabib like that because Khabib never talk about nobody.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rousey was a dominant force and a star, but was then brutally knocked out by Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes in back-to-back fights, and then left the sport altogether.<\/p>\n
With the UFC heading to the White House in June, rumors have swirled about a possible return to the octagon for Rousey. \u201cRowdy\u201d has yet to give any affirmation, but if she were to return to UFC competition, Abdelaziz believes she won\u2019t be anywhere near the top of the women\u2019s bantamweight divisional heap.<\/p>\n
\u201cHonestly, in this day and era, and how the sport\u2019s evolved, she\u2019s still very young [and] if she comes back, she\u2019ll not even be in the top-10,\u201d Abdelaziz explained. \u201cI don\u2019t think she\u2019d be in the top-10, my opinion. But there\u2019s only one way to find out.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Khabib Nurmagoedov\u2019s manager may not have gotten all of the context, but he had some things to say…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":259666,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[444],"tags":[49,48,641,701,638,82,640,702],"class_list":{"0":"post-259665","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mma","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-fighting","11":"tag-latest-news","12":"tag-mma","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-ufc","15":"tag-ufc-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259665","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=259665"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/259665\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/259666"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=259665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=259665"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=259665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
