Ronda Rousey told she is a "joke" and a "sell-out" after swapping UFC for WWE

UFC bantamweight champion Julianna Pena has told legendary former champion Ronda Rousey that her legacy was "kind of ruined" by her two knockout losses.

Pena defeated Amanda Nunes to become champion back in December, a title which Nunes defended in Rousey's last-ever fight back in December of 2016. The American was the first bantamweight champion in the UFC, and was a groundbreaker when it came to women fighting in the promotion.

But Pena believes her two knockout losses at the tail end of her career before moving into the WWE has damaged her legacy. Rousey lost her belt to Holly Holm with a vicious knockout at UFC 193 which kept her out for over a year before Nunes finished her career the following December.
