After suffering her first defeat in her mixed martial arts career against Holly Holm in November 2015, Ronda Rousey shied away from the spotlight for more than a year, even a month before her Ultimate Fighting Championship bantamweight title fight against champ Amanda Nunes. But now that she suffered her second title loss in a row, there is uncertainty surrounding Rousey's career.

Rousey was expected to redeem herself against Nunes and to reclaim the bantamweight title she lost last year, but she instead suffered a quick 48-second first-round knockout from her Brazilian foe who made it easy by landing a parry of punches that left "Rowdy" stunned and wobbling.  After the loss, the former Olympics bronze-medallist was advised by her mother, AnnMaria De Mars who spoke with TMZ, to retire. 

Before, it was Rousey who was on the right end of a first round knockout, having won 11 of her 12 victories in just the first round. The opposite happened on Dec. 30 at UFC 207 as referee Herb Dean had to stop the fight before it could get worse for Rousey who did not have a chance to showcase her judo skills.

Nunes did not hold back after defending her title as she told the media in the post-fight presser that Rousey's MMA career is over, CNN quoted her as saying. The Brazilian, who donned a lion's mask in the official weigh-in and the press conference, added insult to injury by saying that people should forget Rousey and she would already retire and will just pursue her career in Hollywood.

If ever Rousey finally hangs up her gloves, she would be just fine in retirement after a guaranteed $3 million payday despite of her loss while Nunes only has a guaranteed pay of $200,000.  Watch the video below for Nunes's post-fight presser:
