Following Ronda Rousey’s brutal 48-second defeat to relative unknown Amanda Nunes via knockout social media rushed to politicize it.
Some lamented Rousey’s “white privilege” as the much more established star earned $3 million to the winner, Nunes, who made $200,000.
RT @mikaelherard: The contender, Rousey gets $3 million for that loss while Nunes gets $200k with win bonus. #america #WhitePrivilege

Will a woman of color ever get paid $3M for a bout? Probably not. Wait, won’t. #UFC207 #NunesVsRousey #Nunes

Others were simply happy a white girl got knocked out.
Amanda Nunes rocked Ronda Rousey for all the women of color disgusted that white women overwhelmingly voted for Trump.

I feel like Ronda Rousey got her ass beat for every fat white bitch that be tripping asking “can I speak with the manager?”????♂️

It was once a time when people really thought Ronda rousey could beat Floyd mayweather now look at this weak white bitch getting KO 48sec

Nunes is a woman of color who decided she would do it for the culture & whoop whiteness’s axx as a warning for the melanin deficient in 2017

White people always want the great white hype until a person of color stops the show. Nunes is a damn good fighter not taken for real.

Some even compared Rosey’s stunning defeat to that of Hillary Clinton.
Amanda Nunes’ look at Ronda Rousey after destroying her is the same one that I gave #NeverTrump & #Hillary supporters after #Trump won. pic.twitter.com/JzO1nJDXYS

UFC was CNN. Ronda Rousey was Hillary Clinton. Amanda Nunes was Trump. Joe Rogan was Jake Tapper. #ufc207 @MarkDice #2016 @realDonaldTrump

Rousey was like clinton….nunes was like trump relentless
— cre8flow (@cre8flow) December 31, 2016
Still others believed Rousey lost because of the karma she had for not supporting Trump in the election.
I think Rousey lost, because she voted for Hillary (C)linton. Should have voted for a winner; Trump. 🙂 https://t.co/FiMn5SPjss

It’s so crazy how it seems EVERYONE who opposed the Trump movement in 2016 has just totally FAILED, from Hillary Clinton to Ronda Rousey.

But Fox Sports 1 analyst Jason Whitlock, known to have right wing leanings, had the the most sarcastic tweet of the night.
Face you make when you win the popular vote, but the Russians hacked the electoral college. pic.twitter.com/g7v2o68NfT
— Jason Whitlock (@WhitlockJason) December 31, 2016
Many didn’t get his humor.
@WhitlockJason Uh, that’s not what happened. Not even a little bit. At all. Stop this BS false narrative.
— Kristine ❀♡❀♡ (@KristineAz) December 31, 2016
How, precisely, did the Russians “hack the electoral college?” What thing(s) did they do to accomplish that? Show your work. @WhitlockJason
— Smoove Like Biden (@trueholygoat) December 31, 2016
@WhitlockJason I assume you’re being funny?
— CE Pascal (@exsacerdotal) December 31, 2016
Yes, he was. And he had to explain it later.
@WhitlockJason I suggest you stop reading fake news and stick to sports. The Electoral College wasn’t hacked moron.
— Saving Ferris (@StreetDoc_67) December 31, 2016
Hey, jackwagon, I don’t believe in the Russian hacks. It’s a joke. https://t.co/QxsJAEfAT3
— Jason Whitlock (@WhitlockJason) December 31, 2016
Let me walk u through my beliefs: Ronda/Hillary = establishment media rig jobs who got exposed in 2016 and come up w/ludicrous excuses. https://t.co/t0UfhoQ6Hk

But the most brutal tweets had nothing to do with politics.
One came from pop star Justin Bieber who didn’t mince words.
you just got knocked the fuck out
— Justin Bieber (@justinbieber) December 31, 2016
The other came from Nunes herself, who must not have heard that most people don’t like sore winners.
