UFC: Travis Browne, Ronda Rousey Relationship Confirmed
A lot of men everywhere are probably hoping that the rumors of UFC Women's Bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey dating heavyweight contender Travis Browne is not true. Well, a lot of men will have their hearts broken as Browne has confirmed his relationship with Rousey during The MMA Hour.
As quoted by MMA Fighting, Browne said, "She's my woman and I'm her man. There's no boyfriend, girlfriend stuff. There's no dating. We're together."
"Dating is for children. Dating is for kids. Over the summer, through all the [expletive] that I had to shuffle through, that I had to sift through, Ronda and I started talking throughout the summer and I'll say now that we are together," he added.
The now couple are teammates at the Glendale Fighting Club in Los Angeles, Calif. The 33-year-old also reveals that there is no awkwardness since they have been training at the same gym before any feelings developed.
Rousey have confirmed their relationship, telling ESPN, "It's true that Travis and I are in a relationship. I've really enjoyed the time we have spent together and getting to know one another. And that's all I'm going to say about it."
There were a lot of things that Browne had to endure last summer, including allegations of domestic abuse by his ex-wife, model Jenna Renee Webb. Webb posted pictures of herself with bruises on Instagram, which prompted the UFC to suspend Browne and ban him during the UFC International Fight Week activities in Las Vegas last July.
Browne's camp released a statement via MMA Mania. His manager John Fosco said, "She never filed a police report, she never went to the police. If there was abuse, I think everybody would encourage everybody to go to the police. If Travis Browne, 6'7," 250 pounds, is going to abuse you, you are probably going to have to go to the hospital, but apparently there were no hospital visits."
MMA Junkie reported that the UFC hired a former FBI agent with 25 years of experience to investigate the situation for seven weeks. The Las Vegas-based promotion then released a statement regarding the situation and future of Brown with the company.
"The investigation found inconclusive evidence to support claims of alleged domestic violence involving Browne and inconclusive evidence that Browne had violated the UFC Fighter Conduct Policy. As a result, UFC has lifted Browne's temporary suspension and anticipates him returning to competition in the coming months," the UFC statement said.
Browne is now set to compete at UFC Fight Night 81 on Jan. 17, 2016 against Matt Mitrione. This will be his first match since he lost to Andrei Arlovski last May 23 at UFC 187 in Las Vegas.
