Ronda Rousey believes that the addition of Francis Ngannou to her event's card represents a major blow to the UFC. Recently, fans were surprised by the announcement of the Cameroonian's fight against Philipe Lins as the co-main event of the show promoted by MVP, which will be streamed on Netflix. The event features the former UFC champion facing Gina Carano in the main event. According to the American, the event forms a strong enough main event duo to surpass the highly anticipated UFC White House card.

In a social media post, Rousey highlighted that the show features two high-impact main fights, composed of top-level athletes with great appeal to the public. According to the former champion, the strength of the card is the result of a proposal that prioritizes the fighters and fans, rather than the interests of shareholders.

"How about a super tag team main event full of BAMFs (badass fighters)? That's what happens when you put fighters and fans ahead of shareholders," wrote Ronda Rousey.

In the same message, the judoka also harshly criticized the event that the UFC intends to hold at the White House, calling the card weak and expressing dissatisfaction with the organization's schedule.

In the co-main event, Alex Poatan faces Ciryl Gane for the interim heavyweight title (up to 120,2 kg).
