Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey already made the championship weight limit ahead of her UFC 207 pay-per-view (PPV) return, which takes place this Friday night (Dec. 30, 2016) inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Gone are the days of saunas and crash diets.
“She already weighs 135 pounds, she won’t have to cut any weight,” UFC President Dana White told CNN. “She’s in phenomenal shape. She’s physically, mentally, and emotionally ready for this fight.”
Rousey will face reigning women’s 135-pound champion Amanda Nunes in the five-round PPV main event, marking her first appearance since a dramatic knockout loss to Holly Holm in late 2015.
