Ronda Rousey, Gina Carano skip UFC White House, book May 16 super fight on Netflix

Published:

Getting Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano in 2026 is kind of like getting Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquiao in 2015. It’s the fight we always wanted to see … a decade before it actually came to fruition.

Despite rumors of a UFC White House appearance, Rousey and Carano will headline a special Netflix MMA event on Sat., May 16, 2026 at Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, streaming live on Netflix.

Tickets for Rousey vs. Carano go on sale March 5 at Ticketmaster.com.

“Ronda came to me and said there is only one person she would make a comeback for and it has been her dream to make this fight happen between us,” said Gina Carano. “She thanked me for opening up doors for her in her career and was respectful in asking for this fight to happen. This is an honor. I believe I will walk out of this fight with the win and I anticipate it will not come easy, which I welcome. This is as much for Ronda and me as it is for the fans and mixed martial arts community. What a time to be alive.”

More on this in just a bit.
