Fans tip Ronda Rousey to make successful UFC return: ‘George Foreman came back after dying and won’

Amid continued rumors of a return to mixed martial arts competition following her retirement from combat sports back in 2017, former undisputed UFC bantamweight champion, Ronda Rousey has been compared to former boxing world champion, George Foreman – with fans touting the Riverside native to make good on a potential comeback fight.

Rousey, a former Strikeforce bantamweight champion and the inaugural UFC bantamweight champion, has been sidelined from mixed martial arts competition since headlining UFC 207 back in December of 2016, suffering a spectacular opening minute knockout loss to the recently retired former two-weight champion, Amanda Nunes.
