Holly Holm Responds to Ronda Rousey's Suicide Comments

Holly Holm, the UFC fighter who knocked out Ronda Rousey last year in a shocking defeat, is now responding to the comments that she was suicidal after the loss.

“There’s a lot of things around that. When I heard that she said that, for me it’s one of those things it’s like, ‘How do I respond to that?’” the 34-year-old fighter said (via TMZ). “I don’t want to say I’m sorry because I think on a competitive level for me, if somebody was to say they’re sorry after [beating me], it’s like, ‘No, I’m a competitor.’ I’m not a charity case.”

“I don’t want to say that I’m glad that she felt that way and I don’t want to say, ‘Oh I’m so sorry.’ It’s something I think that you have to dig through on your own. In the long run, she’ll be stronger mentally from it,” Holly added.

If you missed it, while appearing on The Ellen Show, Ronda talked about her suicidal thoughts post-fight.
