AnnMaria De Mars, the mother of former UFC champion Ronda Rousey, is not one to hold her tongue. Even before Rousey lost to Holly Holm, De Mars ripped Rousey’s coach. Now her daughter is without a championship belt, and De Mars blames Edmond Tarverdyan.

She spoke to Submission Radio about not just her problems with Tarverdyan, but the major changes Rousey needs to make to win again.

“Ronda trained with an idiot. She trained with an idiot and a fraud. I would be shocked to find out that guy has any record at all. As far as I know, I saw him fight once and he fought somebody that had a record of like 6-20 and won on a split decision. The guy is a fraud. Ronda has a lot of talent. She came into that gym with a very strong background of training at the Olympic level and it carried her a long way. “She needs to get away from some egomaniac fraud and be herself. Ronda as herself can beat anybody on the planet. I’m sad about it but you become an adult and make decisions. Sometimes you make mistakes and hopefully you learn from them … I don’t claim to know everything but I know what it takes to win a world championship. I know what good coaching is. I told Ronda more than once, ‘I know what training to beat the world looks like and this isn’t it.’

De Mars won a world championship in judo in 1984, and has stayed involved in the sport ever since. When Rousey was growing up, her mother would wake her up with armbars. She knows a little something about training for combat sports.

It’s not just De Mars who believes it’s time for Rousey to make a change. As we pointed after Rousey’s loss, Tarverdyan didn’t prepare the right gameplan for Holm. Rafael Cordeiro, the trainer behind Anderson Silva, Mauricio “Shogun” Rua and Wanderlei Silva, said Rousey needs to change her game.

What’s next for Rousey is unclear as she balances acting and fighting opportunities. If fighting is what she decides to do next, maybe she should listen to her mother. Regardless of Tarverdyan’s ability to coach, a change in camps will give her a fresh perspective, new training partners and help her put the loss to Holm behind her.
