But now, with her comeback set for May 16, the landscape looks very different.
Speaking to MMA Junkie, Nunes was asked about Kayla Harrison’s recent criticism of Rousey’s return. The two were meant to fight earlier this year before Harrison pulled out due to injury. Despite their past differences, Nunes is supportive of Rousey stepping back into the spotlight and hopes Harrison will do the same soon.
“I don’t see nobody losing here. Ronda Rousey’s back, she’s going to fight Gina [Carano], this is great for women’s MMA. This is great for all of us.
