Amanda Nunes was probably really happy that she beat Rousey at UFC 207. She probably shouldn’t have tweeted out the following however:

The tweet probably wouldn’t have been considered too bad, but considering that Rousey is the only reason Nunes or any other female fighter is in the UFC, it was probably a little un-called for.

Nunes would later post the following apology:

Let me take a moment to explain myself. I was overwhelmed with adrenaline, emotion and hurt at the time. I held so much in during the weeks prior to my fight with Ronda. I might have said or posted some things at the time that I now realize was not the right thing to do. I want to apologize to Ronda. Her fans and mine and the UFC as well. Ronda is an amazing athlete and has done so much for this sport, especially for the women. #respect ????????
