Morning Report: Dana White says Ronda Rousey still the biggest star in UFC history

It's been almost a year since Ronda Rousey last stepped foot in the octagon but despite that absence, UFC President Dana White is still singing her praises.

Recently, while doing promotion for the UFC's upcoming debut at Madison Square Garden in November, White spoke to Hot 97 where he fielded questions about Ronda Rousey and whether she was the biggest star in the history of the UFC.

"By far. Not even close, by far the biggest star ever."

While this isn't a new line for White, it is somewhat surprising he still holds to it after the year the UFC has had on the back of Conor McGregor.
