Ronda Rousey Reveals if She'll Fight Again or Retire After Historic Win vs. Carano in Netflix Event

Ronda Rousey confirmed that she won't fight again after defeating Gina Carano in the main event of Saturday's Netflix MMA card.

"There's no way I could've ended it better than this," Rousey said following her win (0:25 mark). "I want to make some more babies."

Rousey ended her final fight in 17 seconds with a first-round submission win.

The victory didn't cause her to change her mind regarding her career, as she previously revealed that she wanted the fight with Carano to be her last in an interview with Sky Sports.

"If this is the kind of fight that forces a trilogy, that would be hard to say no to," Rousey said. "But I just feel like this is the perfect closure and the perfect way to walk away and say goodbye."

The 39-year-old opened her MMA career with a perfect 12-0 record and became the inaugural UFC women's bantamweight champion before falling to Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes in 2015 and 2016, respectively.

Rousey retired following the consecutive losses and was away from the sport for just under a decade, but her MMA return against Carano was announced on Feb. 17.

Now, it seems as though she's heading back into retirement.
