And a few days after the fight she took to Twitter to share some of the strange DMs she gets from her followers.
One fan asked Ricci for photos of her feet, and the Brazilian revealed some messages can be very nasty.
She usually laughs them off and does not mind the requests, stating she is happy that they follow her.
Ricci told the Daily Star: “[I’m] laughing, actually that was an easy one. I get some nasty messages from some of my fans, it’s funny.
“I wish I could share everything with you guys but I really respect that they follow me and you can’t just put things like that on the internet, but it’s pretty nasty.
“Actually, I don’t care, sometimes I look at it just to laugh and I show to my friends and they say ‘oh my God’, how [can] people think of those things.”
Ricci is not the only fighter who has received creepy messages on social media from fans.
Boxer Ebanie Bridges once revealed some of her followers send her photos of their private parts and ask her to judge them.
