The UFC today made its final massive event of the year official when Ronda Rousey’s return to the octagon was confirmed for the main event of UFC 207 against women’s bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes.
The Dec. 30 pay-per-view event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas will see Rousey (12-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) return to competition for the first time in more than a year when she challenges current champ Nunes (13-4 MMA, 6-1 UFC), who is the third fighter to hold the belt since “Rowdy” lost it to Holly Holm at UFC 193.
With the blockbuster bout less than three months away, the excitement on social media after the fight became official was obvious. Check below for the top Twitter reactions to the UFC 207 announcement.
