In the last month or so, Ronda Rousey has been in the MMA news in a way she hasn’t been in years. With a new book that came out at the beginning of April, she’s been making the interview circuit. When Rousey has been willing to sit down, she’s always been willing to speak her mind without restraint. In that sense, she’s a dream to interview, a soundbite just about every time.
Ronda Rousey exhibited all the signs and symptoms of PTSD from being knocked out on the largest stage of her entire life, knowing that multiple media outlets were going to literally chase her down to get her to talk about something she utterly lacked the coping skills for.
More fighters, like Alexander Volkanovski, are starting to speak out about the traumatic psychological damage that losing in dramatic fashion under the brightest spotlights can have on a person, especially one accustomed to winning, and I think the writers at Bloody Elbow are exactly the sort to take this new topic and break ground on both the history (tragic history of fighters like Evan Tanner) and the possible future (Performance Institute to utilize PTSD therapy?).
"hasn’t been in years over the last few years." I'm sorry, but this is really bad and clunky writing. Based on this and your past output, I'm assuming that English isn't your first language. If that's the case I understand completely.

that's my fault for sloppy editing.
I'm sorry, my comment was unnecessarily mean.
thanks for catching that yourself.
You can just say "hasn't been in years".
