UFC legend Ronda Rousey has been tipped to making a stunning octagon comeback — seven years after quitting for WWE.
Rousey, 36, was once the top name in MMA after featuring in UFC’s first-ever all-female fight.

She successfully defended the Women’s Bantamweight title a record six times.
But Rousey called time on her fighting career in 2016 after back-to-back defeats against Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes.
Bowing out with 12 wins from 14, she was then snapped up by WWE in 2018 – the same year she became a UFC Hall of Famer.
And Rousey has since gone on to become a three-time world champion.
However, ‘Rowdy’ could now be on her way back to UFC in a shock U-turn.
Chief Dana White is reportedly seeking a new star name for the women’s division after Nunes’ recent retirement.
And UFC commentator Jon Anik reckons Rousey could jump at the chance to make a sensational return.
The path could be made even smoother after UFC’s merger with WWE in April.

Anik said: “If anyone is worthy of that type of opportunity, it’s probably Ronda Rousey.
“And I do believe she would be competitive because she would not enter that setting without the guarantee that she would be competitive.
“If ever there was a time, it would be absolutely now.
“I’m not going to suggest she’d be a betting favourite against Julianna Pena or Raquel Pennington.
“But I can understand why people would be excited at the possibility.”
