Amanda Nunes, Cris Cyborg Drop 1-Emoji Reaction to Ronda Rousey's Win vs. Gina Carano in 17 Seconds

Joseph ZuckerMay 17, 2026

Amanda Nunes and Cris Cyborg appeared to be less than impressed by what they saw in Saturday's headline bout between Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano.

Rousey needed just 17 seconds before she locked Carano into an armbar and won the fight. Nunes and Cyborg let emojis do their talking on social media as they seemingly reacted to the action:

Nunes famously earned a first-round TKO victory over Rousey in 2016, a result that cemented her as a major star. That had been Rousey's last bout before her recent comeback.

Cyborg similarly toppled Carano in the first round of a 2009 Strikeforce card. She also had a long war of words with Rousey when they were both generally considered among the best female fighters in the world.

Both will have tuned in Saturday night with some added interest, and they probably weren't the only ones who came away a little underwhelmed by what unfolded.

Carano last time in the cage was her loss to Cyborg. After a hiatus of nearly 17 years, her rust showed as she was taken to the mat quickly and then left herself susceptible to Rousey's trademark armbar.

Nunes and Cyborg might at least be a little envious of the seven-figure paydays Carano and Rousey earned for their time.
