Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) star Ronda Rousey will fight the pioneering women’s MMA fighter, Gina Carano, on Saturday, May 16, 2026, as the legendary martial artists come out of long retirements to finally face-off.
The fight, which is part of the first MMA card to be shown on Netflix and will be produced by Most Valuable Promotions, will take place at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles.
The card will also include a heavyweight matchup between Francis Ngannou and Philipe Lins, as well as a fight between Nate Diaz and Mike Perry.
Here’s everything you need to know about the card.
What time are the fights?
The main card will start at about 9pm Eastern time on Saturday (01:00 GMT on Sunday).
The preliminaries will start at about 6pm Eastern time on Saturday (22:00 GMT).
How can I watch it?
The main card will stream globally on Netflix and is included in all subscriptions.
The preliminary fights will be streamed on Tudum.
What are the rules for Rousey vs Carano?
The featherweight (140lb, 63.5kg) fight is scheduled for five five-minute rounds, and the fighters will wear 4-ounce (113g) gloves.
They will follow the Unified Rules of MMA, which have been adopted by major promotions such as the UFC.
What’s at stake in the Rousey vs Carano fight?
Pride and bragging rights since there is no title on the line.
Carano, 44, and Cris Cyborg were the first women to headline a major MMA event during their 2009 bout in the Strikeforce promotion. Carano retired after losing that fight with a record of 7-1.
Rousey, 39, arguably became the most famous athlete in women’s combat sports history as she won six consecutive UFC fights, with many ending in less than a minute.
But she retired with a record of 12-2 after back-to-back defeats to Holly Holm in November 2015 and Amanda Nunes in December 2016.
What has Rousey said before the fight?
When Rousey lost her final two UFC fights and realised she needed to prioritise her health, including her increasing susceptibility to concussions, she left the spotlight of the cage for acting and professional wrestling, followed by marriage and two children.
“I had to allow my body to rest and heal,” Rousey told The Associated Press news agency.
Rousey also told ABC Sport Daily that she had lost her love for MMA towards the end.
