Overview
- Netflix will stream an 11-fight card on Saturday, May 16 from the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, with the prelims available on YouTube.
- At Thursday’s press conference in Los Angeles, Ronda Rousey said her bout with Gina Carano will “smash” the record for women’s pay in combat sports.
- Rousey argued the Netflix–MVP approach could boost fighters’ bargaining power against the UFC and stressed loyalty to Dana White and the Fertittas while rejecting TKO’s UFC.
- She also fired back at recent criticism from Khamzat Chimaev and Kayla Harrison as she framed the event as a chance to reshape the sport’s economy.
- The main card features Francis Ngannou vs. Philipe Lins and Nate Diaz vs. Mike Perry, plus Junior dos Santos vs. Robelis Despaigne and Salahdine Parnasse vs. Kenneth Cross.
