Almost two weeks ago, Ronda Rousey lost her UFC Bantamweight title to Holly Holm at UFC 193. In response to her defeat, Trump may have tweeted something he will soon regret—that is if Conor McGregor has anything to say about it.
The tweet in question essentially says that Trump is glad she lost, because she is, "not a nice person." Other celebrity fans were not pleased with Rousey either because she showed poor sportsmanship when she declined to touch gloves with Holm before the fight.
Glad to see that @RondaRousey lost her championship fight last night. Was soundly beaten - not a nice person!

A TMZ camera crew ran into McGregor, UFC's Featherweight title holder, at LAX a few days back. When confronted about Trump's Twitter jab, Rolling Stone reports McGregor had this to say: "It's easy for someone that's not in there to comment, but it's different when you're in there. The emotions are high. It is what it is. You either want to touch gloves or you don't. That means nothing, so Donald can shut his big, fat mouth. I don't give a f*ck about Donald Trump."
If Trump isn't the only one throwing punches at Rousey, one has to ask, why McGregor is so upset? Could it be that he thinks Trump is being a petulant child because Rousey speaks her mind and made it clear she does not want a reality TV star in the White House? To be honest, who could blame her?
As TMZ says, "Donald Trump has been warned—pop off again about Ronda Rousey, and you just might have to deal with UFC champ Conor McGregor!"
But it is The Trump. So now we can expect a truly magnificent display of trumped-up logic that in some absurd way, makes McGregor, and possibly his Irish kinsmen, a threat to all of America. If nothing else, you can count on Trump and the UFC for some great entertainment coming up in the near future.
