Media outlet disables latest inflammatory video featuring Ronda Rousey’s mom

The second in a pair of inflammatory videos featuring the mother of UFC women’s bantamweight champ Ronda Rousey has been made private.

In the video, Dr. AnnaMaria De Mars again blasts Rousey’s coach, Edmond Tarverdyan, at one point declaring, “I would run over him with my car if there wasn’t a law against it.”

In an email, De Mars, a former judo world champion who used to wake Rousey up to defend armbars, told MMAjunkie she did not request for the video to be taken down.

Humberto Guida, host of the video’s producer, LatiNation, said it was his team’s decision to disable the video and said it was done in the interest of “restraint.” He added, however, that De Mars’ full 30-minute interview, complete with her comments on Tarverdyan, will be posted soon.

“Our show is not really that TMZish,” he said. “We put the first one up, but once we put (the second video) up and (a website) made a headline, we decided it was just a little much. I think it’s unfair just to put a bunch of soundbites out.”

A message left with Tarverdyan’s gym, Glendale Fighting Club, wasn’t immediately returned.

De Mars made headlines from MMA websites to major media outlets on Tuesday when the first clip from her interview with LatiNation was posted. In it, she calls Tarverdyan a “terrible coach” and “bad person” who “hit the lottery when Ronda walked in there.”

De Mars cited Rousey’s previous success in judo as the reason Tarverdyan hasn’t done much for the UFC champ.

In the second video, however, De Mars appears to amp up the rhetoric, describing her caustic manner around him.

“Every time I go in his gym he used to say, ‘How are you?'” she said. “And I’d say, ‘How the f-ck do you think I am? I’m in your f-cking gym and I f-cking hate you.’ So now he doesn’t ask me how I am anymore.

“I hate that guy. He’s like the most worthless human being god ever put on this Earth.”

So far, Rousey has yet to publicly address the videos or her mother’s comments. Rousey (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) is next set to face Holly Holm (12-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) at UFC 193, which takes place Nov. 15 at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne, Australia. It is her seventh attempted title defense, and an event UFC hopes will break attendance records for the promotion.
