📊 Netflix MVP MMA odds: Rousey vs. Carano odds - Main Card

Ronda Rousey (12-2) vs. Gina Carano (7-1)

Ronda Rousey notes:

• The trailblazer: Rousey was the first woman signed by the UFC and its inaugural bantamweight champion, defending her belt six times before losses to Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes ended her run in 2016
• Key stat: Nine of her 12 career wins came by armbar, and she holds two of the five fastest finishes in UFC title fight history (14 seconds vs. Cat Zingano, 16 seconds vs. Alexis Davis)

Gina Carano notes:

• The original face: Carano was women's MMA's biggest star before Rousey existed, headlining a major MMA event against Cris Cyborg in 2009. She hasn't competed in nearly 17 years and is now 43 years old
• Key stat: Her only career loss came to Cris Cyborg by TKO in the first-ever women's main event in major MMA history at Strikeforce

Nate Diaz (22-13) vs. Mike Perry (14-8)

Nate Diaz notes:

• Stockton's finest: Diaz returns to MMA for the first time since submitting Tony Ferguson at UFC 279 in September 2022. He boxed Jorge Masvidal in July 2024 but hasn't thrown a kick or shot for a takedown in nearly four years
• Key stat: Has 12 submission wins across his career, but eight of his 13 losses have come by decision, and he's been TKO'd just twice in 34 professional MMA fights

Mike Perry notes:

• The King of Violence: Perry has been sharpening his hands in bare-knuckle boxing, going 7-0 in BKFC with KOs of Luke Rockhold, Eddie Alvarez, Thiago Alves, and Jeremy Stephens. He hasn't competed in MMA since 2021
• Key stat: Holds the BKFC "King of Violence" title and has finished former champions in three of his last four bare-knuckle bouts

Francis Ngannou (18-3) vs. Philipe Lins (18-5)

Francis Ngannou notes:

• The Predator: Ngannou is a former UFC heavyweight champion and the hardest puncher in MMA history. He knocked out Renan Ferreira in his last MMA bout at PFL Super Fights in October 2024
• Key stat: Seven of his 14 UFC fights ended by KO before the two-minute mark of round one

Philipe Lins notes:

• The light heavyweight: Lins is a former PFL heavyweight champion (2018) who spent most of his career at 205 pounds. He went 4-2 in the UFC with wins over Ovince Saint Preux and Maxim Grishin before leaving the promotion
• Key stat: Enters on a four-fight win streak but is moving up to heavyweight against the most dangerous finisher in the sport

Salahdine Parnasse (24-2) vs. Kenneth Cross (17-4)

Salahdine Parnasse notes:

• KSW's two-division king: The 28-year-old Frenchman held the KSW featherweight and lightweight titles simultaneously, finishing Marcin Held in his last outing at KSW 114 in January 2026
• Key stat: 22 wins in 24 professional fights by knockout, submission, and decision alike. Only two losses across a nine-year career

Kenneth Cross notes:

• The regional grinder: Cross has been building his record across XFC and regional circuits, recently training alongside UFC bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili in Las Vegas. He finishes most of his opponents, with an 85% career finish rate
• Key stat: Riding a seven-fight win streak but faces a huge jump in competition against a multi-division champion

Junior Dos Santos (23-10) vs. Robelis Despaigne (5-2)

Junior Dos Santos notes:

• The former champ: JDS once owned the UFC heavyweight division, knocking out Cain Velasquez in 64 seconds to win the title in 2011. He's 42 now and has been competing in Gamebred Bareknuckle MMA, winning the heavyweight championship in March 2024
• Key stat: Eight of his 10 career losses have come by KO/TKO, and he's been stopped by Ngannou, Gane, Rozenstruik, and Blaydes in his last decade of fighting

Robelis Despaigne notes:

• The knockout machine: The 6-foot-7 Cuban is a 2012 Olympic bronze medalist in taekwondo who transitioned to MMA. He went 1-2 in the UFC before dominating Karate Combat, winning their heavyweight championship with a head kick KO
• Key stat: Scored KOs in 4, 12, 8, and 20 seconds across his first four Karate Combat fights. The speed of those finishes is not a typo
