Former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey faces Gina Carano this coming May, headlining the first ever MMA card to stream live on Netflix.
Rousey believes that the event will give the UFC some competition, which she says will help her former promotion in the long run.
"It's a dream fight and a superfight and everything, but I feel like the story and everything behind it is not just this fight," Rousey told MVP chief Nakisa Bidarian in a behind-the-scenes MVP UNCUT video (transcript via Nolan King of MMA Junkie). "A lot of it is MVP vs. UFC. That's where I'm going to go real hard in the f*cking trenches. We're helping (the UFC) because they're suffering from a lack of competition. They can't just make a class-action lawsuit every couple years the cost of doing business. I'm really trying to help Dana out. If anyone has been groomed to be his apprentice, it's been me. I think I'd be the most favorite adversary he's ever had."
There is no UFC card scheduled for May 16 at this time, so any head to head competition may have to wait for a future date.
