Ronda Rousey -- 'Revenge Is a Motherf*****'
MOTHERLY ADVICE

Ronda Rousey just shared some very interesting advice she got from her mom -- "Winning is a bitch. But revenge is a motherf*****."

Ronda was speaking at the Women in Action female empowerment event in Chicago earlier Friday -- when she talked about advice she got from her athlete mom about bouncing back after a loss.

The crowd went wild for Rousey -- who was pretty pumped up!

Does this mean she wants another crack at Holly Holm?

She also said, "I want to win my belt back."

BTW, Ronda was sporting a diamond ring on her finger ... but sources close to the fighter tell us it's NOT an engagement ring, just a piece of jewelry she selected for the event.

THE SKY'S THE LIMIT

Dana White is revealing why the $4 billion sale of the UFC isn't just great for his bottom line -- it's awesome for the fighters who also want to be Hollywood A-listers.
