Ronda Rousey‘s former training partner, Kayla Harrison — who’s still friends with the UFC superstar — says Ronda is surrounded by some people who don’t have her best interests at heart … and she needs to ditch them ASAP.
FYI, Kayla is a 2-time Olympic gold medalist in judo — and trained with Ronda on a daily basis for years. They’re still friends and spoke on the phone just a few weeks ago.
Harrison says Ronda seemed to be in a great mental space before the fight and “expected her to come back with a vengeance.”
But the one thing that concerns Kayla … she believes there are people who have latched on to the UFC star “that maybe don’t have Ronda’s best interest at heart.”
She didn’t call anyone out by name — but wants to remind Ronda that she still has TRUE FRIENDS and family members out there who care about her … and those are the people she should surround herself with.
By the way, Harrison also tells TMZ Sports she’s one step closer to fighting MMA … and got the itch while announcing at the World Series of Fighting this past weekend.
