Ronda Rousey Next Fight: Training Camp Details Revealed, Sparring With Men To Prep For UFC 190 Vs Bethe Correia

Undefeated UFC fighter Ronda Rousey is set to take on Bethe Correia in a bout set for August 1. In the upcoming UFC 190 pay-per-view (PPV) event set to happen from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil -- the hometown of No. 1 contender, Correia.

According to The Post Game, notes that based on the Instagram clips uploaded by "Rowdy" Rousey, she has been going head-to-head with men in preparation for her fight.

A few hours earlier, the 28-year-old fighter shared a quick social media clip of herself doing some "'Light' Mma sparring" with a male opponent and she's looking like she's in tip-top form.

It seems Rousey has been practicing with both male and female sparring partners to prepare for her upcoming match. She captioned the footage, "'Light' Mma sparring....#UFC190 #Aug1st #andSTILL." MMA Mania noted that Rousey has got some extra motivation to take on Correia, 32. Earlier, Correia was doing some trash talking and the challenger went overboard when she mentioned suicide in her tirades against Rousey.

Combate (via MMA Mania) quoted "Pitbull" who said:

"I want to knock her out, show to everyone that she is a lie. She wants to stand up with me, let's see. I want to humiliate her and show the word she has no MMA. She is focused on movies, books. I am much stronger, I come from a developing country, where people are struggling to survive, not to starve. It is very different from her life of reality. Under pressure, she is proving weak. When her mom put pressure on her, she ran away from home. When she lost, it was because of drugs. That's not a superhero. She is not mentally healthy, she needs to take care of herself. She is winning, so everybody is around her cheering her up, but when she realizes she is not everything that she believes she is, I don't know what might happen. I hope she does not kill herself later on (laughs)."

The comment was considered a "low blow" given that Rousey's dad took his own life when she was little. The Brazilian mixed martial artist has since apologized for the comment but Ronda is fired up. As a response to the comments, Rousey has taken to Twitter to make her thoughts known. "@bethecorreia suicide is no joke or selling point. My father will be with me the day I hand you the comeuppance you deserve."

Immediately after the post, Bethe replied saying, "@RondaRousey Never knew what happened to ur dad.I'm humble enough to ask u for forgiveness. Family is a godly bless to me. See u in #UFC190."
