Ronda Rousey's return to mixed martial arts after a decade away proved decisive. Stepping into the cage on Saturday night, Rousey faced former star Gina Carano in a prominent Netflix event. Despite both fighters making highly anticipated comebacks, only Rousey demonstrated readiness for elite competition.
Rousey's performance was a display of dominance, ending the bout in mere seconds. The five-round fight was over before either competitor could establish a rhythm. Rousey secured a submission victory through an armbar in under 20 seconds, showcasing a terrifying intensity.
Carano's preparation for the fight included losing approximately 100 pounds after being removed from active competition for 17 years. However, these preparations did not translate to in-cage readiness against Rousey. The two fighters shared a moment of mutual respect following Carano's submission.
