As noted, UFC officially announced the long-awaited Octagon return of mega-star Ronda Rousey on Tuesday afternoon. The former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion will be meeting the current Women’s 135-pound champion Amanda Nunes in the main event of the UFC 207 pay-per-view in December.
But wait, there’s more.
According to UFC President Dana White, who broke the news regarding the Nunes-Rousey bout during his appearance on “The Herd” with Colin Cowherd on Tuesday, if Rousey gets her hand raised against Nunes in December it will only be a matter of time before the former MMA Dream Match between Rousey and Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino finally comes to fruition.
“If Ronda wins the title back, the Cyborg fight will definitely happen,” White told Cowherd on Tuesday. You can watch footage of his appearance above.
