![Thought going through Correia's mind in this moment: OK, who...]()
Thought going through Correia's mind in this moment: OK, who suggested that I take up fighting when I was so good at social media? I could have made a nice living working for some Brazilian corporation. This getting pummeled thing doesn't look good on a resume. Edge: Rousey
![Correia still has a few tricks left, like trying to...]()
Correia still has a few tricks left, like trying to squeeze backward through the steel cage. The plan, obviously, is for her body to split into a zillion pieces then re-assemble outside the octagon where it is safe. Edge: Rousey

![Three seconds into the fight, Rousey employs the strange strategy...]()
