Laila Ali Slams Ronda Rousey UFC Loss to Holly Holm: "It's Obvious Who the Better Fighter Was"
It looks like Laila Ali was throwing major shade at UFC fighter Ronda Rousey after she took a loss to Holly Holm over the weekend. In a new video recorded by TMZ, Ali said that even "the best in the world don't get beat up like that." She also apparently was glad that Holm took hold the winning title because she said "it was obvious who the better fighter was."
Muhammad Ali's daughter claimed that Holm's win "Didn't shock" her. She added, "I'm familiar with Holly Holm. She's a talented boxer. She's a world champion. She has an MMA background and obviously she's no chump. I'm excited for her and hopefully she'll get the exposure that she needs to take her career to the next level."
Holm knocked Rousey out when she head-kicked her early in the second round of the UFC 193. Being a two-division world boxing champion, Ali said: "It's obvious who the better fighter was."
Ali made it clear that she wasn't a fan of Rousey claiming that there was so many things should could say about her. When asked what tips she'd give Rousey, Ali said she didn't even know where to began. She said Rousey could look at the tape and figure what she needed to work on for herself.
Ali also said there was not reason for Rousey to have a rematch with Holm. Ali believes another fight between the two ladies would end just like the UFC 193 did, or maybe worse.
"In order to be the best in the world, you definitely don't ever get beat up like that in your prime. Period," the champ said. "I don't think she should have a rematch with Holly Holm because I think it will go the same way the second time, probably worse."
Rousey's sportsmanship has even been questioned, while Ali said that's up to the fighter how they act inside of a ring. Donald Trump seemed to show his true colors on the fight and claimed he was glad Rousey got beat.
The Presidential hopeful wrote via Twitter: "Glad to see @RondaRousey lost her championship fight last night. Was soundly beaten - not a nice person!"
Well, well, well!
