Ronda Rousey: “UFC’s White House Card Sucks”

Rousey weighs in on the card.

UFC Hall of Famer Ronda Rousey is scheduled to make her return to MMA on May 16th against Gina Carano. The bout is taking place under Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California.

In the lead-up to her return, Rousey has done media and shared that she attempted to make her MMA return happen under the UFC banner, but she and Dana White could not come to terms.

Following UFC’s announcement of the card for their event at the White House on June 14th, Rousey took to X to note that the card ‘sucks’ and brought up Francis Ngannou versus Philipe Lins being added to the fight card that she’ll be headlining on May 16th.
