The decade-long fantasy fight between Rousey and Carano will become a reality as the two women's MMA pioneers return to the cage. The five-round featherweight bout at Los Angeles' Intuit Dome will be promoted by Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions.
Rousey, 39, last competed in 2016, while Carano, 43, retired in 2009 after losses to Amanda Nunes and Cris Cyborg respectively. Rousey called the event 'the biggest superfight in women's combat sport history' and noted it was made possible through partnerships with MVP and Netflix.
