RE: Ronda Rousey "Conor McGregor Took A Lot Of Weight Off My Shoulders - I Owe Him A Lot"
For sure. I feel like it's much better for fighters to lose early in their career. That zero on their record stops being a pressure to maintain. Ronda got beat by someone who was very stylistically difficult for her. She was an awesome fighter, and took two defeats to two very good fighters in their own right. It happens.
Ronda Rousey was more of a "winner" than a fighter or martial artist. When she stopped winning, she thought it was time to stop, whereas fighters and martial artists take losses as opportunities to improve and get better.
