Ronda Rousey on social media for the first time since Holly Holm UFC 193 defeat

Nothing much has been heard of Ronda Rousey until now.

While many were thinking that the dethroned Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women's bantamweight champion may be still sulking from that defeat to Holly Holm, it seems that all is well with her.

She has somehow resurfaced on social media, tweeting an Instagram photo from her mom's (AnnMaria DeMars) account showing Rousey with her family in a Thanksgiving get together.

For those who are wondering how good that plastic surgeon really was, the photo seems to show Rousey pretty much the same as she was even before she got into the Octagon against Holm.

And as far as the depression angle is concerned, well, Rousey doesn't seem to be suffering from such and looks somehow over her defeat to Holm.

Rousey is expected to take some time away from the UFC as she fulfills her Hollywood commitments. Such include appearing on the remake film "Roadhouse" and "Mile 22" wherein she will star opposite Mark Wahlberg.

Plans for Rousey to go on hiatus was revealed by her even before UFC 193 took place, with UFC 200 the most likely event that she will reappear.

Dana White did already hint that Rousey and Holm will be having a rematch at UFC 200. Holm says that she is looking forward to the second meeting, something she says Rousey deserves to get.

Rousey got knocked out by Holm when the former boxer landed a timely left kick to the face. The kick resulted in a split lip for Rousey which was eventually patched up by a plastic surgeon, as Dana White made sure that there would be no scarring.

With the rematch between the two seemingly the priority of the UFC, other UFC women stars are likely to be asked to wait all the way until after UFC 200 in July before they can have a shot at the women's bantamweight championship belt.
