UFC targets July 9th Rousey rematch. Holm shelved 8 months, perhaps against wishes

Very annoyed by this. Rhonda should have to earn it back like everybody else.

The fact that it still wasn't guaranteed whether Aldo or McGregor would get the cover until their match 3 days ago, yet Rousey been knocked out for several weeks and still has it, tells you everything.

She's the golden goose for them. Single handedly gets them a ton of media and PR. She's a certifiable conspiracy theory, nut, hypocrite and cocky and got knocked out, but they try and portray her so differently.

Now they're willing to screw over Holm, have her have such a layoff just so Rousey can recover and try and get the belt back. Dana White got the best plastic surgeon in Australia in an emergency to fix her busted lip. Jon Jones is a coked out moron who did a hit and run on a pregnant woman, but Dana jumps through hoops to excuse the behavior etc.

The jokes reached poor taste a while ago but there is really no good reason for this sustained maliciousness thrown her way. Fucking hell, let it end already. She lost. It was a great fight to watch. Time to move on and wait for the rematch.

every ko requires at least 6 months of solid rest, this putting aside her jaw therapy (which is probably the most brutal physical therapy one must go through)

Dana is obviously frothing at the mouth for a chance to get the title back on Rousey. His mistake.

Or perhaps Uncle Dana is smarter than we all realize and wants to cash in on Rousey one last time. She was already talking retirement and I think the Holm fight shortened her career whether she wins the rematch (lol) or not.
