UFC president Dana White also recently told a Brazilian publication “there’s a big chance that Ronda Rousey will fight Amanda Nunes and I’m very confident that Ronda will probably fight before the end of the year”.

Rousey has not fought since last November when she fell to Holly Holm at UFC 193. It should be interesting to note who Ronda may be fighting.

Former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey is now in talks about her comeback fight, which is likely to come against reigning champion Amanda Nunes. UFC 206 will be on December 10 in Toronto, while UFC 207 is set for Las Vegas on December 30.

No bout agreements have been issued and talks are now still ongoing.

A few days ago, Nunes tweeted out a tease that she had big news on the horizon.

Despite the uncertainty of a target date, the outspoken coach guaranteed that Rousey would once again bring her A-game once she sees foot in the cage. There are still in the early stages of getting this fight together as they are still negotiating. The fight would be part of UFC 207, which will take place in Las Vegas.

Ronda Rousey hasn’t fought in almost a year since her upset loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193, but her trainer says that when she does come back “we promise the best Ronda Rousey that anyone has ever seen”.

Rightfully so, she stepped away from the spotlight to regroup from the devastating loss.
