Miesha Tate, Cris Cyborg Find Pleasure in Rousey's UFC 193 Loss

Steven RondinaNov 15, 2015

There was a swirl of emotion surrounding Ronda Rousey's upset loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193. Surprise was certainly the biggest one for the majority of MMA fans. The legions of fans Rousey attracted to the sport of MMA were likely either sad or disappointed. Given the double standard that still exists in the sport, there's no doubt that some were made uncomfortable by seeing a young, attractive woman get spun in place with a left hand and then knocked out cold with a kick to the neck.

For Miesha Tate and Cris "Cyborg" Justino, though? The emotion that came to the surface was glee.

While Rousey and Holm were doing battle in Melbourne, Australia, Tate was hosting a UFC 193 viewing party at a "gentlemen's club" in Las Vegas. That is not a joke. After Rousey was knocked out, Tate was given the opportunity to say a few words and, boy, did she make the most of that opportunity. You can see the video here (and be warned, there is all sorts of NSFW language therein). Here is the quote (initially transcribed by BloodyElbow.com, and then censored by yours truly):

"

I'm f--kin' stoked. F--k Ronda Rousey. F--k her and her "Nobody has the right to beat me." Nobody has the right to beat you? Well you just got beat, b---h...Anyways, I'm proud of Holly. She had a perfect, flawless game plan. She came in with it tonight and now she is the champion. I look forward to that fight, because I think that I'm next in line.

Harsh stuff from Tate, but it's not exactly unprovoked. The rivals have been exchanging harsh words since their 2011 fight in Strikeforce, with the most recent installment coming Thursday at the UFC 193 media day, where Rousey said some less-than-kind things about Tate while undercutting her as a challenger.

Another fighter Rousey has had a long-standing beef with, the aforementioned Cyborg, sent out a deluge of tweets following the loss. The first was short and sweet:

"

As time wore on, though, they became substantially more, shall way say, hilarious? Also much more NSFW. You can check out Jonathan Bradley's writeup over at FoxSports.com for more details.

Of course, it's worth noting that basically the entire women's bantamweight division lost with Rousey tonight. Tate, for all her righteous indignation about getting passed over for a title shot, now finds her championship hopes shelved for the indefinite future due to the almost guaranteed Holm vs. Rousey 2. Cyborg, similarly, has the long-awaited superfight with Rousey taken off the table, leaving her to fight for both attention and small checks down in Invicta FC.

Neither Cyborg nor Tate currently have a fight lined up, so it will be interesting to see how this major shake-up affects both of them.
