She is always going to rub some people off the wrong way no matter what.

All she needs to do is continue to be her self and most importantly continue to do well in the ring and make good $$$ in the process.

I haven't seen that she's involved with drugs, alcohol, or gangsters (outside of her family, maybe, lol). I've heard nothing about her partying or getting arrested or in fights outside of the boxing arena. No gun shxt either.

People just got a problem with a sista that promotes her fights with her mouth the same way Floyd, Tyson Fury, or Muhammad Ali did.

Nah.. I just don't like the idea of her having to play the bad guy role just to sell fights.. That only works when your sport has been rocking for hundreds of years.. Women's boxing is just taking off.. And clarissa is turning more men off from watching her simply because they fell some kind of way about some of the stuff she says. It makes me upset reading all the hateful crap people say about her.. But I'm also tired of defending the crap she says.. I mean seriously, what's the point of talking trash about male fighters.. Saying she could beat ggg? I mean.. Is that going to make more men wanna watch her fight? And that fight will never happen so what's the point?

It’s the things she did right after the sucker punch and the video after the cancellation. She should be shamed.

Stop it. Women's MMA is only over a decade years old and Ronda Rousey took her "Rowdy" persona all the way to the bank, giving Miesha Tate the finger, and starting a fight with Holly Holm at the press conference.

Crazy, talkative, shxt stirring fighters drive fights.
