Netflix Stages Historic MMA Showdown: Rousey vs Carano

Netflix is staging its first live MMA event, a May 16 bout at the Intuit Dome in LA between Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano, produced with MVP; the five-round, 4-ounce-glove fight will be sanctioned under the Unified Rules inside a hexagon, with tickets on sale March 5. The event signals Netflix’s expansion into combat sports amid ongoing Warner Bros. Discovery–Paramount talks, and cements both fighters’ status as icons in women’s MMA.
