Ronda Rousey Is Back in MMA with Support and Structure She Lacked Earlier in Her Trailblazing Career
Rousey says time away from MMA helped her heal, and she returns seeking fair pay and closure after years away from competition.
- On Saturday, Ronda Rousey returns to the cage against fellow MMA pioneer Gina Carano at the Intuit Dome Inglewood, headlining the first mixed martial arts card to air on Netflix.
- After losing her final two UFC fights, Rousey stepped away in 2016 to prioritize her health, managing increasing susceptibility to concussions and the need for rest.
- With master grappler Lundell, Rousey overhauled her training regimen, installing a sauna and five-person cold tub to improve fitness and mental outlook.
- Rousey accused UFC Chief Financial Officer Hunter Campbell of prioritizing shareholders over the sport; she remains friends with White, whom she believes was overruled on her $5 million purse request.
- Describing the match as a new chapter rather than a 'comeback,' Rousey focuses on martial arts philosophy and concepts, eyeing a potential future kids' academy in Hawaii.
