Former Raw and Smackdown Women’s champion Ronda Rousey will be returning to the cage tonight in a much-anticipated fight against another MMA legend and pioneer, Gina Carano.
The event, airing live on Netflix everywhere, will be held at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California and will also have Nate Diaz, Francis Ngannou, Philipe Lins, Junior dos Santos, and others in the 11-match card.
The show is promoted by MVP Promotions, with the primary card airing on YouTube, followed by the main show on Netflix.
Rousey, the former UFC Women’s Bantamweight champion, has not fought an MMA bout since December 30, 2016. She suffered a loss to Amanda Nunes on that night, signing off with a 12-2 career record.
Carano has not entered the cage since August 15, 2009. She had her first career loss that night against Cris Cyborg and finished off with a 7-1 record.
The match was originally offered to the UFC and while Dana White was interested in having it under the UFC banner, Rousey and Carano were not offered a good deal after the UFC moved from pay-per-view to Paramount+.
Rousey has used much of her time promoting this show blasting the UFC and TKO for the way they handle payouts for the fighters under their contract.
The main card on Netflix will start at 9PM ET.
