Mayer has been demanding a rematch ever since the two squared off against each other in the square ring. Not to mention, she does not believe that she lost the fight and that the decision was inconsistent with the bout. The same did not sit well with Baumgardner. She took to Twitter and reposted a clip of the time that decision was read out in the ring after their fight. She captioned the Tweet, Here, in case you forgot. Pouting like a lil b*tch!”

Mayer was quick with her response. She too wanted to ruffle up some feather of her rival. She decided to share a clip of Baumgardner’s only professional loss. The clips feature her being out-skilled.

The former champion also demanded she considers the rematch once again and not be proud of a “BS decision”.  She stated, “Since we’re posting shit… is this the “BS Decision” you’re pouting like a little bi*ch about? Lol like I said, take your plans up with ur team and until your serious about a rematch STFU”

Evident to say, the two do not like each other. Though, one may argue that such hostility between competitors adds fuel to the fire which makes bouts more exciting for the public at large.
