Ronda Rousey launches stunning tirade at UFC champion Kayla Harrison: ‘Charisma of a wet towel’

“Her and Hunter [Campbell] acting like her next upcoming fight is the biggest women’s fight of all time,” Rousey continued, whose fight with Carano will be streamed on Netflix. “Then why is it being booked as a co-main for a men’s interim title fight?

“The b**** isn’t even bigger than Paddy “The Baddy” [Pimblett]. No offense to Paddy. He’s got more potential than anybody in the UFC, and he should call me when his contract runs out.”

“If she thinks that her fight is the biggest women’s fight of all-time, why is she getting paid less now than I was 10 years ago? So riddle me this, b****, are you overvalued or are you overpaid?

“What really pisses me off more than anything else is how small she thinks. This is not just the biggest women’s fight of all time; this is the biggest MMA fight of all time, it’s going to get the most views on the biggest platform on the card with the biggest stars, and it was assembled by and will be headlined by two women who dared to dream big.

“This dream is going to bring more opportunities and greater revenue share to fighters than they’ve ever had before because this fight is bigger than just me and Gina. It’s bigger than anybody on this stage. It represents an unstoppable force of change in this industry, spearheaded by the fighters themselves. You bet your f****** ass this is the biggest MMA fight of all time. Bar none.”

Rousey also hit back at suggestions from Harrison, a fellow judoka, that the UFC Hall of Famer was lying about her prowess in training.

Harrison said in March: “She’s online telling this story about how, ‘Yeah, I had a lot of pride so I’d be out there for an hour with these girls and then finally a 90-kilo guy would take pity on me and come out and throw me.’ Dude, that is literally a blatant f****** lie. Now you’re just making s*** up. That never happened.”

And Rousey, an Olympic bronze medallist in judo, did not hold back with her response.

“[Harrison] says that I lied about training in judo in Canada in 2006. Who the f**** are you to call me a liar?” Rousey said. “I was training there for five months. B***, you weren’t even there.

“Over the last decade and a half of being a public figure, I have cultivated a reputation for being unabashedly truthful. This bitch just got here and was already caught in a lie.

“What did she say after she won the belt? ‘Oh, I’m never going to say anything bad about Ronda, she took care of me when I was broke in Japan, and she bought me groceries.’ How about you shut the f*** up and eat your groceries?”

Harrison took to social media to issue her comeback to Rousey’s rant, declaring that the perfect way to settle their differences would be in the cage.

“FIGHT ME DEN,” she posted on X.
