On Tuesday morning, recently dethroned UFC women’s Bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey returned home to the states and into the waiting onslaught of TMZ’s cameras. Accompanying her was her boyfriend, heavyweight contender Travis Browne.

This marked Rousey’s (12-1) first public appearance since suffering a violent second round headkick knockout to Holly Holm in their UFC 193 title fight in Melbourne, Australia this weekend.

This was the first time the woman known as “Rowdy” tasted defeat in her professional career as prior to this loss she had looked unbeatable, while being praised as the most dominant athlete in the world today.
