Ronda Rousey is revving up the excitement as she prepares for her May 16 showdown with Gina Carano. In a fiery recent interview, Rousey made it clear that while she respects Carano and recognizes her contributions to the sport, this fight is all business.“When that door closes, I’m going to do everything in my power to kill that chick with my bare hands,”she declared, promising an intense battle.
Rousey doesn’t shy away from expressing her competitive spirit. She wants Carano to see just how fierce she’s become—a “monster,” as she puts it—because of the path that Carano helped pave. Despite the rivalry heating up, Rousey seems to have an interesting motivation: she wants to impress her opponent and show her what she’s capable of doing with the skills they both have developed. It’s shaping up to be a clash that will keep MMA fans talking long after the final bell rings.
