Dana White remains uncertain about Ronda Rousey's potential comeback, but he acknowledges her remarkable physical transformation. Rousey's recent training videos and comments about rediscovering her passion for MMA have sparked speculation. With the UFC's ambitious plans for a historic event at the White House in 2026, Rousey's potential return is a topic of interest. At her peak, Rousey was a prominent figure in the sport, and her comeback would undoubtedly generate significant attention.
However, White is cautious about rushing into any decisions, considering Rousey's settled life as a wife and mother. Despite this, he admires her dedication to training, which has kept her in exceptional shape. White expressed their close relationship, noting their occasional conversations and Rousey's recent visit to Las Vegas. He emphasized her commitment to fitness, mentioning her impressive physique, which has returned to its former glory.
Rousey's last fight was over a decade ago, and with her 39th birthday approaching in February, a comeback seems unlikely unless she has a specific reason to return. Her previous losses to Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes, followed by a career shift into professional wrestling and family expansion, have kept her occupied. Additionally, Rousey is focusing on writing a new autobiography and developing a biopic, further indicating her dedication to other pursuits.
The question remains: will Rousey reconsider her retirement and return to the UFC? While White acknowledges the possibility, he remains non-committal, leaving the decision open-ended. The former bantamweight champion's future in the sport is a topic of speculation, and fans eagerly await her next move.
