If you’re a fan of watching Ronda Rousey, you’d better make sure you catch her next match because it may be her last.
The former bantamweight champion appeared on the The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and spoke about the future of her mixed martial arts career. DeGeneres went on to ask Rouse how much longer she plans on fighting in the UFC and her response surprised many.
"Not that long. I'm wrapping it up. This is definitely one of my last fights. Everyone better watch the show. It isn't going to last forever," Rousey responded.
Rousey was an unblemished 12-0 in her UFC career before losing last November to Holly Holm. Holm then went on to lose the bantamweight title to Miesha Tate, who then went on to lose the championship to Amanda Nunes, which is why we are where we are. Rousey’s nearly one year disappearance is almost just as surprising as her loss last November. UFC fans around the world have wanted a Rousey-Holm rematch, but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen.
"I think it's the buildup that is more tiring than anything else. If we had a fight right now, I'd fight and go get dinner and I wouldn't really feel tired about it. It's the weeks and weeks of buildup beforehand. You know you're fighting this one person, it's like your showdown, the most important thing in your whole life. Millions of people are watching,” Rousey went on to say.
UFC 207 will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada on December 30, and this match is scheduled to be the main fight card.
