Rousey vs Carano: MMA Superfight Returns

Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano are making stunning comebacks to face each other in a May 16 superfight promoted by Jake Paul and airing live on Netflix.

After a combined 25 years away from MMA, pioneers Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano will face off in a five-round featherweight bout on May 16 at Los Angeles' Intuit Dome. The fight, promoted by Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions, marks the first MMA card to air live on Netflix.

Rousey, 39, last competed in 2016, while Carano, 43, retired in 2009. Both remain among the most influential figures in women's MMA history, with Rousey calling the matchup 'the biggest superfight in women's combat sport history.'
