UFC women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey may be outspoken but her mother, Ann Maria DeMars, is no shrinking violet when it comes to shooting straight from the hip.

Writing on her blog recently, The Business/Judo of Life (hat tip to Fox Sports), the former world Judo champion said she's worried about some of the people her daughter has started hanging out with.

"I'm her mom so of course I think Ronda Jean is a whole cupcake of amazing, frosted with awesome sauce and sprinkles of sweetness on top. However, I think some of the people she hangs out with are douche bags."

DeMars wrote that she thinks Ronda's fame is causing a "bubble" to form around her like many other famous celebrities in history, where she's surrounded by yesmen who are too fearful to be honest with her about some of her decisions.

"Here is what I see. The more famous, wealthy or successful you get, the more people are afraid of you. Most people are not fabulously famous, etc. so you end up with a lot of people around you whose major quality to offer to the world is that they are associated with YOU. No matter how wonderful anyone is, they will do stupid shit from time to time. The difference if you are rich and famous is that people don't call you on your shit."

While admitting that Ronda tells her "not to worry," DeMars wrote that privately some people have said they disagree with some of the decisions the UFC champion has made. But when she suggests they confront Ronda about it they back down, concerned that "she won't let him hang around any more and he won't get to be a big shot."

"After all, who wouldn't like to believe that every decision they made was right? That bubble of what you see as acceptable - because everyone around you accepts it - just gets bigger and bigger until one day it pops when you rape someone in a hotel room or shoot someone because they annoyed you or overdose on drugs."

Yikes. Subtle Mike Tyson reference there.

Given Rousey's recent success in landing movie roles and winning awards it certainly doesn't seem like she's likely to do any hotel room raping in the near future, but it's nice to see mom is looking out for her.

Or is it? Do you think this public airing of her deepest fears should have been something shared with her daughter in private?
