(ESPN) – In possibly the biggest upset in UFC history, Holly Holm has knocked out Ronda Rousey, for the woman who claimed to be the best fighter in the whole world, things just got worse. After being hospitalized after the fight, she tested positive for PED's.

The shocking news has ended Rousey's "super human" image. Her head coach stated that Ronda only takes legal supplements that boost testosterone and burn fat.

I can't find this news (which I find hard to believe) anywhere online.

Yeah it's off ESPN cut and pasted directly and I haven't seen it anywhere else either.

I can't find it on there either. This would be all over the Internet if true.

Pound for Pound the best in the business my ass.

I do love a loud mouth who can actually back it up... McGregor has done that and more over the past couple of years.

He has pretty much carried the promotion for the show and when it came down to it, he was just to good.

Having watched TUF22 he was always respectful after a fight as he was today in his post fight discussions with the FS1 team...

What a great champion... Team McGregor....

The main event overshadowed Rockhold's total dominance over Weidmann. Stellar performance.

A lot of what he does and says are for ratings and hype. He's a strange one as I can love him or hate him depending on the day but one thing is for sure, he is a champion and he has beat up on Aldo mentally for months and finished him off physically in 13 seconds.

Surely after his first loss in 10 years Aldo gets a re-match but the problem with Aldo is he doesn't say anything or promote well. I think the American public will get behind a Franky or Uriah fight a lot more and the repartee will be a lot more entertaining.

Holm v Rousey 2 booked for July 9th - UFC 200

UFC 195 main event Condit v Lawler........WOW. The final round was epic!

Holm needs to beat Tate first

That fight is far from officially booked. Rousey might not be ready to fight by July due to movie/TV commitments.

McGregor talks it up, Diaz starts slow, takes some solid left's from McGregor and it looked like Connor blew up halfway through the second round and Diaz took over.

Stunned him with a couple of rights, a solid left then when McGregor took Diaz to the ground to take a breather he folded like a deck of cards. Gave his back up and Diaz choked him out.

Diaz looked gone mid way through the first, then McGregor looked no chance of making it through the second....as it turned out.

Just wanted it to go longer!!

I had Diaz to win via submission at $7. was very happy when he locked in the choke hold.

Tates win throws it all up in the air.

Reckon it will still be Holm vs Rousey next, just not for the title.

Awesome 2 main events yesterday.

Agreed. Can't speak highly enough of the main main event though.

McGregor all class after the loss.

I suppose you kind of have to one when you talk the talk like him but it was refreshing to see any how.

Wouldnt have lost many admirers, and in fact might have gained a few

But he has lost options. I read a story today where they said he's basically written his own epitaph and will have to go back to featherweight.
