Ronda Rousey will be using up all the bags of peas in her freezer for a while.

The American suffered a shock  loss last night to Holly Holm in the UFC 193 show-piece in Melbourne.

The former bantamweight champion lost for the very first time in the UFC, after receiving several massive strikes to the face.

After her loss many fans were worried that ‘Rowdy’ may have suffered a broken jaw from the brutal finish to the fight

Rousey was taken to hospital after her knock-out and didn’t make an appearance at the post-fight press conference due to her injuries.

Fans were naturally concerned for her health today
