Two pioneers of Women’s MMA, Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano, will face off in a dream matchup at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California. This fight is the Main Event of tonight’s MMA card airing on Netflix. This is the first MMA card taking place on Netflix. The other two big fights on this card are Francis Ngannou vs. Philipe Lins and Nate Diaz vs. Mike Perry.
Regardless of promotion, this is one of the biggest MMA cards of 2026. Carano is 7-1 with four finishes and competed from 2006 to 2009. During her career, Carano fought in Strikeforce and EliteXC. Before the UFC had women’s divisions, Carano was one of the greatest women’s fighters in the world. Two years after Carano retired, Rousey began her MMA career. Rousey won gold in Strikeforce and then became the first UFC Women’s Featherweight Champion. This is Rousey’s first fight since 2016 and Carano’s first since 2009.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, Rousey is a -625 favorite with Carano being a +455 underdog. Carano is getting 74 percent of the handle, while Rousey is getting 26 percent. 62 percent of bets are on Rousey, with Carano getting 38 percent.
Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou is making his return against Philipe Lins. Ngannou beat Renan Ferreira in his last fight, which took place in October 2024 at a PFL event. He is currently on a seven-fight winning streak in MMA with six knockouts. He is facing Philipe Lins, who has won his last four fights, but hasn’t fought since March 2024.
Ngannou is a -1350 favorite in this contest while Lins is the underdog at +800. Ngannou is receiving 84 percent of bets and 36 percent of the handle in this fight. Meanwhile, 74 percent of the handle and 38 percent of bets on this fight are on Lins.
Nate Diaz takes on Mike Perry in a Welterweight contest, which should be a highly entertaining contest. Diaz’s last combat sports fight was in July 2024, a boxing match against Jorge Masvidal. His last MMA fight came in September 2022 against Tony Ferguson. Perry also hasn’t fought in MMA in a while; his last MMA fight was in April 2021.
Perry is a -205 favorite as Diaz is a +170 underdog in this contest on DraftKings Sportsbook. Even though Diaz is the underdog, he is the fan favorite, accounting for 85 percent of the bets and 71 percent of the handle in this contest. Perry is getting 29 percent of bets with 15 percent of the handle.
