Get ready for an unforgettable night of combat sports as MVP MMA presents the highly anticipated showdown between Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano this Saturday at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, streaming exclusively on Netflix. The event has assembled a broadcast team that reads like a who's who of MMA royalty, promising fans expert analysis and insider perspectives throughout the evening.
At the commentary desk, veteran broadcaster Mauro Ranallo will call the play-by-play action, bringing his signature energy and precision to every exchange. He'll be joined by former UFC fighter and seasoned analyst Kenny Florian, whose technical breakdowns will help viewers understand the intricacies of each bout. Sibley Scoles will serve as roving reporter, capturing the behind-the-scenes moments, while Sean Wheelock handles the critical duties of rules and scoring.
The analyst desk is where things get truly star-studded. Elle Duncan leads the panel alongside former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley and respected journalist Ariel Helwani. But the real excitement comes from the rotating cast of special guests: former UFC champions Jon Jones and Cain Velasquez, along with women's MMA pioneer Cat Zingano, will join throughout the night to share their championship perspectives. For fans of MMA history, this lineup is a dream come true—imagine hearing Jones break down a fight or Velasquez offer insights on heavyweight tactics.
The action kicks off with the preliminary card at 6 p.m. ET on the MVP YouTube channel, before the main card takes over Netflix at 9 p.m. ET. But the fight week festivities begin even earlier. Wednesday's open workouts at 9 p.m. ET feature Scoles as cageside reporter and Kody "Big Mo" Mommaerts—who will serve as ring announcer on fight night—as emcee. Thursday brings the press conference hosted by Helwani, featuring the entire lineup, followed by ceremonial weigh-ins hosted by Scoles with Woodley and Florian providing analysis, additional reporting from Helwani, and bonus commentary from Velasquez. Both events stream at 9 p.m. ET on the MVP YouTube channel.
Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the sport, this weekend promises to be a celebration of MMA at its finest—with a broadcast team that honors the legends while showcasing the next generation of stars.
