Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano faced off in dresses at a promotional event ahead of their featherweight MMA bout set for May 16, 2026, at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles.
The matchup headlines Most Valuable Promotions' debut card, which Netflix will stream live worldwide. Both fighters are returning after years away from the cage: Rousey with a 12-2 record and Carano at 7-1. They helped pioneer women's MMA years ago.
The full card includes Nate Diaz against Mike Perry and Francis Ngannou facing Philipe Lins. Prelims start at 5 p.m. ET, with the main card at 8 p.m. ET. Subscribers get access at no extra cost.
The staredown drew mixed reactions online, with some fans excited for the nostalgia clash and others questioning how two retired stars will perform after long layoffs. The event marks Netflix's entry into live combat sports and tests whether big names can still pack a punch in the octagon.
