Ronda Rousey is currently having a great time in WWE. She is currently the reigning WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion. However, she recently expressed her desire to face Gina Carano. The women’s MMA pioneer Gina Carano, who appeared on Fox News was asked about Ronda Rousey.
Gina Carano said a match against Ronda Rousey could take place:
“You know what? I just never put it past me,” Carano said with a laugh, when asked about a possible return against Rousey. “It could happen. It would be like, you know, six months from now, because I have a lot of stuff I need to do. But my fight really is with — I really want to create, I want to direct, I want to produce, I want to give artists, I wanna give Ronda Rousey a job in one of my movies, so maybe there is something we can do there.”
Carano sustained her first career loss almost 13 years ago after which she decided to step away from MMA. She used to have issues making the featherweight limit in her prime, and naturally isn’t anywhere close to any of the women’s weight classes now that she’s 40 and retired for over a decade. Rousey, who famously didn’t want to fight Cyborg at 145 lbs, did awkwardly mention how weight wouldn’t be an issue for her in a potential fight with Carano.
“If she ever was like, ‘Ronda, I wanna fight you tomorrow at 205 pounds,’ like whatever the hell she’d want — I’m not saying she’s 205 pounds — if she wanted to come into my backyard and do the Rocky thing or, you know, ding, ding and we just do it in the backyard, I don’t care,” Rousey said. “It’s a respect thing, not like a, ‘F–k you. I’m coming to get you.’ It’s just like, hey, if you ever wanna pull that card out, it’s there.”
We will have to see if we ever witness a bout between Rousey and Carano.
