Dana White is all in on a Rousey vs Cyborg fight and he believes that if the fight occurs it’d be the biggest fight in the history of the UFC.
“I don’t know [who wins], I think that’s why the fight is so exciting,” he said during the interview. “There’s no denying that Cyborg’s a beast, man. She’s tough, and many people believe — including me — that Ronda’s the best in the world and the best female fighter ever. So it’s one of those fights that’s very intriguing. And I’ll tell you this, Jim, when that fight happens I guarantee you that fight does over two million pay-per-view buys. It will be massive.”
Dana White wasn’t shy about saying that he is amongst the fans hoping to see this fight happen.
“I want that fight,” he said. “Ronda wants that fight, and I think everybody else wants to see that fight. Supposedly, sometime before the end of this year [Cyborg]’s supposed to cut down to 135 pounds, she will fight in Invicta, and if she fights that fight and wins, then Ronda will be next.”
It seems like all signs point towards a 2016 Rousey-Cyborg fight. I’m not sure it does 2 million PPV buys like White says, but with the right com main event it can be one of the biggest fights in UFC history.
