Good news UFC fans, UFC 184 main event Ronda Rousey Vs. Cat Zingano bout on Saturday for the UFC women's bantamweight is now official.
Bantamweight champion Rousey and top contender Zingano hit the scale on Friday, Feb. 27.
FoxSports reported that Rousey was all smiles as she hit the stage with coach Edmond Tarverdyan and her nutritionist Mike Dolce. She weighed in at a slim trim 135-pound.
Rousey admitted that this is the biggest challenge she has ever had and also assured that fans are set to see the most fantastic win they have ever seen. Zingano, on the other hand, was all business as she hit the scale and she weighed at 134.5 pounds.
BleacherReport noted that Rousey has competed 10 times professionally, and remarkably all of those fights combined, have ended in less than 25 minutes. In fact, the combined total is just eight minutes without Miesha Tate.
Zingano shook Rousey's hand as the two fighters met directly in front of UFC president Dana White. After the two separated, Zingano only had two words for the L.A. faithful.
"Watch this," Zingano said.
BleacherReport points out that Zingano could ultimately prove to be Rousey's stiffest test. The two are set to headline UFC 184 on Saturday (Feb. 28) night. During an appearance on Fox Sports' American Pregame, though the champ was complimentary of her opponent, she was notably confident in her ability to ruin Zingano's perfect record.
Rousey said it's personality that really sets the great fighters apart; she added that Zingano is indeed one of those great fighters. Rousey proclaimed her to be the greatest fighter of all time and added that it's a bad timing for Zingano.
Former boxing champion, Holly Holm who is making her UFC debut in the co-main event weighed in at 135 1/2, the same as her opponent Raquel Pennington.
