Rousey vs. Carano Tops Netflix’s Debut MVP MMA Event at Intuit Dome

The subscription-included show tests whether Netflix’s tie-up with Jake Paul’s MVP can reshape MMA economics.

Overview

  • The Netflix main card starts at 9 p.m. ET Saturday, with free prelims at 6 p.m. ET on YouTube and Netflix’s Tudum channel.
  • Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano cleared Friday’s weigh-ins at about 142 and 141.4 pounds and will take extra concussion tests before their five-round featherweight bout.
  • The card features Nate Diaz vs. Mike Perry and former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou vs. Philipe Lins on what MVP bills as a triple main event.
  • Sportsbooks have Rousey as a wide favorite, with odds around -600 to -700 at major outlets heading into fight night.
  • The 11-fight event marks MVP’s first MMA card on Netflix with no pay-per-view fee, a model backers say could boost global viewership and fighter leverage.
