Gina Carano Returns From a 17-Year Break to Make an Improbable MMA Comeback Against Ronda Rousey
Carano says the 17-year comeback follows grueling training and a renewed focus, while Rousey ends a 9 1/2-year layoff.
- Gina Carano faces Ronda Rousey in the main event of Netflix's first MMA show Saturday night at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California.
- The bout puts the 44-year-old Carano back under the competitive spotlight she left in 2009 when she was 27, having built and lost a high-profile acting career in the interim.
- More than 6,100 days after her loss to Cris Cyborg, Carano returns to the cage, saying, "Training has been grueling, but it's just the consistency."
- Rousey is ending her own 9 1/2-year absence from competition, saying, "She was my hero getting into the sport, and this is what brought us together."
- Carano stated, "I took responsibility for everything that happens in the cage," viewing the fight as a chance to "do it right" from a solid place in her life.
