Video: UFC 207 Ceremonial Weigh-in: Amanda Nunez vs. Ronda Rousey

Ronda Rousey (135) vs. Amanda Nunes (135)

UFC® is bringing the heat to close out 2016 with two world title fights and a card filled with some of the biggest names in mixed martial arts. Women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes will defend her 135-pound crown for the first time against arguably the most dominant champion in history, Ronda Rousey, in the main event. The co-main event will see the men’s bantamweight world title on the line in a grudge match between division kingpin Dominick Cruz and one of the sport’s fastest rising stars, Cody Garbrandt. UFC® 207: NUNES vs. ROUSEY takes place Friday, Dec. 30 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

With all eyes on the Octagon® for the return of Rousey (12-1, fighting out of Venice, Calif.) the stage is set for champion Nunes (13-4, fighting out of Miami, Fla.) to put on the performance of a lifetime and catapult herself into superstardom by defeating the biggest name in the sport. The 28-year-old Brazilian shocked the world with her first round submission of Miesha Tate to win the title earlier this year. Nunes’ explosive finishing power and ability to submit or knock out any opponent, makes her one of the most dangerous and complete fighters in the women’s 135-pound division. Rousey is the sport’s first true crossover star, having elevated MMA to the next level with her dominance, dynamic finishing ability and confidence. As the only athlete to successfully defend the women’s bantamweight title more than once, Rousey hopes to begin her second reign over the division.
