Saturday’s Ronda Rousey-Gina Carano card will feature Elle Duncan, Tyron Woodley and Ariel Helwani on the main desk, with Mauro Ranallo and Kenny Florian calling the action cageside.
Netflix and Most Valuable Promotions stacked the show with familiar combat-sports voices as the streamer keeps leaning on fight programming after strong audiences for Jake Paul’s previous Netflix events.
The bout landed on Netflix after talks with Dana White and the UFC collapsed; Rousey said Carano needed more time, pushing the event into 2026 after the UFC’s PPV business shifted to Paramount+.
26 years after either woman last fought professionally, the five-round MMA bout will air from Los Angeles on Netflix, with prelims at 6 p.m. ET on Tudum and YouTube and the main card at 9 p.m. ET.
Could this Netflix superfight be the event that finally shatters the UFC's long-standing monopoly on major MMA?
With her nemesis Holly Holm now signed to MVP, is Rousey's comeback a prelude to the ultimate revenge fight?
