It feels like the UFC missed an opportunity here. While both fighters may be past their competitive prime, their star power remains undeniable, especially Ronda Rousey, who hasn’t stepped inside the Octagon since 2016. As for Gina Carano, she last competed in 2009 in a highly anticipated Strikeforce bout against Cris Cyborg. Though Carano never fought in the UFC, she remained a major name in combat sports before transitioning into Hollywood with a notable run on The Mandalorian.
Rousey, meanwhile, pivoted to a successful WWE career following an iconic UFC run that ended with two difficult losses. Now, both fighters are reportedly set to come out of retirement to face each other in a five-round professional bout promoted by Jake Paul’s MVP Promotions. The event will stream live on Netflix on May 16 and has the potential to draw significant viewership. Check out the promo video below.
