Liz Carmouche Predicts Ronda Rousey Will Defeat Gina Carano in Comeback Fight

Former UFC fighter Liz Carmouche has predicted that Ronda Rousey will defeat Gina Carano in their upcoming matchup under the Most Valuable Promotions banner, which will be broadcast on Netflix. Carmouche, who historically faced Rousey in the first-ever women's UFC fight, bases her prediction on Rousey's superior grappling skills and Olympic-level tenacity. Although Carmouche acknowledges that both fighters are well-matched in striking, she believes Rousey shines brighter on the ground unless Carano has made significant, unseen improvements during her long retirement. This fight marks Rousey's return to professional mixed martial arts after a decade-long absence following her loss to Amanda Nunes. Meanwhile, Carmouche is currently preparing for her own bout in the Professional Fighters League (PFL) in San Diego. She expressed hope for a 'storybook ending' involving a co-promotion with Rousey in the future, aiming to further showcase women's MMA. Carmouche also outlined her personal goals, including winning the undisputed women's flyweight title and potentially establishing a women's bantamweight division within the PFL.
