This past Saturday on the undercard of UFC 218 event, strawweight veteran Angela Magana came up short against rising contender Amanda Bobby Cooper via TKO stoppage.
Magana dropped to a five-fight losing skid when Cooper stopped her with punches in the second round.
Amanda Cooper dominated Magana, for the entire duration of the bout, especially on the mat. Cooper had Magana’s back and was landing ground-and-pound when the referee stepped in to stop the fight.
Magana doesn’t think the stoppage was warranted.
I need to walk in the cage with a banana in my shorts and a crew cut then maybe the ref will let the fight go. Men can fucking tap out from strikes get hit and the ref wont stop it till 7 shots later after near death expierence #equalrightsinfights #letthegirlstakebeatingstoo

Amanda was fucking bashing me & overpowering me, I wasnt rocked still moving was completely aware I immediately sat back & bitched at ref. Heard my corner yell out I had less than 30 seconds. I was thugging it out hoping for a 3rd & have a chance back on my feet again. #ufc218

In a series of hatred tweets on Sunday in the wake of her UFC 218 loss, Magana took to Twitter to trash the critics and haters.
There are no losers in #MMA at this level.Can you really call Oliviera a loser cuz he tapped to strikes? Whoever gets hit with an elbow like that is smart to tap out. What if you got caught like Overeem call him whatever but you gotta have balls to get in there like that #ufc218

Also Gaethje a loser? Or look at Jose I had joy when seeing his beautiful slipping, headwork, pivots, boxing and that familiar legkick. Max is a killer and smelled that blood making him even hungrier. You can look at any match up and no way was there a loser. #ufc218

“There are no losers in MMA at this level,” Magana began. “Can you really call [Alex] Oliveira a loser cuz he tapped to strikes? Whoever gets hit with an elbow like that is smart to tap out. What if you got caught like Overeem? Call him whatever, but you gotta have balls to get in there like that.”
“Also [Justin] Gaethje a loser? Or look at Jose [Aldo]. I had joy when seeing his beautiful slipping, headwork, pivots, boxing and that familiar leg kick. Max is a killer and smelled that blood making him even hungrier. You can look at any match up and no way was there a loser.”
“As for haters, will you ever have Bruce Buffer announce your name? Or Jon Anik & Rogan acknowledging improvement in your stand up? Have Rogan talk about how incredibly tough you are, [or] be entertained & amazed by [your] pure will to struggle out of a choke? No you won’t, and that’s why you hate.”
