Current UFC bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes held nothing back after she swiftly defeated Ronda Rousey at UFC 207 on Dec. 30. 

On Tuesday, more than one month after her victory, she apologized to Rousey via her Instagram:

After disposing of Rousey in just 48 seconds by technical knockout, Nunes turned to the press and social media to go after her opponent further. 

First, she posted a Photoshopped picture of herself pushing Rousey in a baby stroller while holding a title belt:

She then told reporters after the fight that "I’m the best on the planet. [Rousey is] going to go do movies. Forget about her. She has a lot of money already," via Marissa Payne of the Washington Post.

It seemed as though Nunes developed such a chip on her shoulder during the buildup to the fight. Rousey was making a highly anticipated return to the Octagon for the first time since her loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193 in November 2015:

With Rousey once again taking a leave of absence from the UFC, Nunes' attempt at extending the olive branch on Tuesday after those harsh post-fight comments shows that she is ready to move on in her bantamweight title defense.
