The Shady Side Of Ronda Rousey

If you thought there was bad blood between Ronda Rousey and Holly Holm, it's nothing compared to what's going on with Rousey and her former manager, Darvin Harvey. He took to Instagram following Rousey's first professional defeat to make his feelings on her loss crystal clear: "KARMA. No need for revenge. Just sit back & wait. Those who hurt you will eventually screw up themselves & if you're lucky, GOD will let you watch." Ouch! 

Speaking to USA Today, Harvey acknowledged his complicity in building her Hollywood persona, saying, "I created a monster. She believed she was as special as the press made her out to be. They give me absolutely no credit for the success of her career. She's not a good person. You don't forget where you came from." Double ouch!

Their relationship reportedly crumbled before Rousey became famous, but their ongoing feud has lasted years. In 2015 (via Bloody Elbow), Harvey threatened a defamation lawsuit against his former client for failing "to acknowledge the important role" he played in her career in her autobiography, My Fight/Your Fight. That issue was eventually settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. "Without violating any agreements, I can say that the changes Mr. Harvey refers to are extremely minor and would not in any way alter the theme or flow of Ms. Rousey's memoir," her attorney said (via Yahoo! Sports).
