The rowdy one makes her return to the Octagon on December 30.
Ronda Rousey is finally returning to the Octagon.
This afternoon the UFC announced that the former women’s bantamweight champion will fight for the first time in over a year at UFC 207. Rousey will square off against the current women’s bantamweight champ Amanda Nunes and it’s exactly the fight both women wanted.

The event is set for December 30 in Las Vegas and will mark Nunes’ first defense of the title she took from Miesha Tate at UFC 200. Tate, of course, took the belt off of Holly Holm, who was the last woman to get into the Octagon with Rousey. Ronda will be hoping things go better for her this time around.
