Why was Rhonda so hated?

[fiftywattmafia]

She has a horrible, unlikeable personality. For me it all started at the end of Miesha v. Ronda II. When she wouldn't shake Miesha's hand. I HATE that shit post fight. Its time to show respect when the battle is over. And I don't want to her some shit like "Miesha make some joke about her family on TUF blah blah blah" Fucking shake hands and show hespect. It was a bad look and its totally her character. No touch gloves with anyone etc....

No media following a loss? No media before comeback, after comeback? Pillow over face after defeat? Not hugging Holly back post fight? Don't cry to Betche? Yes teh Betche said some shitty things too. She's a jackass as well.

Anyway....
She's a shithead.

1. Look at her.

2. No one claimed she was a once ever athlete.

3. The UFC didn't make a division in order to sign her.

I didn't really watch MMA when Carano was around, but did people expect her to crush Cyborg?

What does 1,2, and 3 have to do with " hating whichever woman became the first dominant champion in the inaugural woman's division."?

Same reason I dont like conman. protected and limited skill set. great white hope for ratings is why they are/were protected

doesnt mean i dont like white fighters cerrone is the man but by in large they are given easy road if halfass marketable

TS said he doesn't watch TUF so this post is irrelevant to him (or something).

I understand that...but it wasn't until her TUF nonsense that the tide began to turn against her in a significant way. One didn't need watch TUF to be influenced by the fall out from it.

Annoying personality.
Joe Rogan
She stated she could beat men.
Never faced the media after her losses, like every other fighter that has ever fought.
Travis Browne

I think that pretty much covers it. But feel free to add.

Rhonda never ducked fights or backed down. She was an active champ who wrecked opponents with finishes nearly every time. What gives?

Sure everything is great when everything is going your way soon as she hit a speed bump she crumbles hide in a cave for 1 year and come back not doing any promotion or media (is what got her where she is in the first place) gets stopped in less then 1 min now what ?

This is what happens when Sherdog mods delete my threads; people start asking stupid questions.

Don't worry, I reposted everything on another forum:

She was/is a half-retarded pathological liar and hypocrite? Tate had the balls to face her again and the skills to stay near the top (picked for TUF to fill a spot). Ronda didn't finish her in the 1st round in the second fight because Tate was too good. Ronda tried to say that she "picked" Tate as her nemesis and "harvested" her like a crop whenever she felt like it. She had her half-retarded claim that Holly tried to punch her even though DANA WHITE'S camera view showed that Holly didn't and Ronda tried to fake the whole thing. She said she didn't want to see the entire season of her TUF and was glad she was out of the country. She also said she would never do another season of TUF, but she later tried to claim that she was acting the entire time. If she was acting, why refuse to do another season of TUF? It would be another fat paycheck and another chance to act. She tried to claim that she contemplated suicide like she was on a couch for a week with a gun pointed at her head until she cured herself with an epiphany because she thought the Ellen crowd would eat it up. After people started saying she mentioned it merely for sympathy and/or possibly lied about it, she tried to make it sound like it was only for a split second and never would have happened (basically no big deal).

It's a mix of reasons. The most important being how the UFC and Ronda herself insulted our intelligence with how they were promoting her. They actually expected us to believe that she could beat male MMA fighters. And in fact she even claimed that she believed that if the circumstances were right she could beat Cain. Then of course there were insane statements from people like Rogan calling her a "once ever athlete".

She's a bitch.

I am not a fan of arrogant and deluded people. If you don't know why Ronda was so hated then there's not much I can tell you, it's like asking "what the hell is that big burning fireball in the sky?"

It became trendy to hate her online? She has really bad luck being randomly targeted like that but such is life...

Arrogance and attitude

She didnt deserve that much hate,just like Nunes doesnt deserve what shes getting now either. Ronda just had a savage alpha personality,and put more pressure on herself than she already had...so it prevented her from really coming back and being the same. She had been batting it out of the park for 5 years which is longer than most get on top,and the DNB's couldnt wait to desecrate the corpse of her career.


I love her and the division was better when she was around.

 

[Dionysos]

She was hated because she was popular in the mainstream.

Most "old school" MMA fans are sad hipsters who like having their own exclusive gay little club.

I'm sure it had nothing to do with her shitty attitude.

Sherdoggers won't admit it, but it all comes down to this:

If Ronda had shaken Cupcake's hand that night and said something nice about her in the post fight interview, sherdog woulda been all "Awe, shucks. She's alright, I guess."

Buncha drama queens around this joint.
