Dana White blasts rumors of Ex-Champion Ronda Rousey returning at UFC 300 next year: ‘It’s a crock of shit’

Amid continued speculation that former undisputed bantamweight champion, Ronda Rousey has been pursued for a return to the Octagon at UFC 300 next year, promotional president, Dana White has labelled reports of an impending comeback to mixed martial arts for the pioneer as a “crock of sh*t”.

Rousey, the inaugural bantamweight champion under the banner of the UFC, has been sidelined from combat sports competition since headlining UFC 206 back in December 2016, suffering a one-sided opening round TKO loss to former two-weight champion, Amanda Nunes at the T-Mobile Arena.

The defeat came as Rousey’s second consecutively, after the Riverside grappling ace suffered a brutal high-kick KO loss to fellow former bantamweight champion, Holly Holm the year prior in Australia.
