RONDA ROUSEY’S fiancé Travis Browne has hit out at fellow UFC heavyweight Derrick Lewis in a revenge attack just hours after he lost to Mark Hunt.
In February Lewis beat Browne in their MMA battle and he added insult to injury by reminding the Hawaiian of the accusations of domestic abuse he had faced from his ex-wife.
In his post-fight interview, Lewis, whose mother was a victim of abuse during his childhood said: “He calls himself a man, but he likes to put his hands on a woman.

“So forget that guy, I got much more heart than he has. Where is Ronda Rousey’s fine ass at?”
But, on Saturday night in Hunt’s home town of Auckland in New Zealand, Lewis did not have the fitness or desire to fight in the latter rounds and he quit in a defeat to the Super Samoan.
Browne – who announced his engagement in April – did not waste time in reminding Lewis of his initial verbal attack and delivered a vicious blow on the giant who calls himself ‘The Black Beast’.
On Instagram, Browne told the defeated American: “You say you have the most heart in the division but I just watched you quit. You should retire.
“You brought up fake news about me that affected my family.
“What happened to your mom, no woman should ever have to go through. Miss Lewis, you have my sympathy.
“I hope your family isn’t affected by false accusations or false news, like mine was, even though you didn’t have the same consideration for my family.”

Lewis revealed after the loss that he is considering retirement and will re-evaluate his career after he gets married in Browne’s Hawaii home.
And Browne offered him his best wishes for the big day and a rematch, if he decides to keep his MMA career alive.
Browne said: “I wish the best for your wife and children. Enjoy your wedding on the islands, my home is heaven on earth. Best Wishes.
We know you don’t have the heart but if you have the balls. I am down to run it back.”
