“Dana Made You”- UFC Veteran Slams Ronda Rousey for Criticizing Dana White Ahead of Netflix Return
Former UFC champion Ronda Rousey is currently scheduled to make her MMA return after almost 10 years of inactivity. Rousey will take on the legendary Gina Carano in a much-anticipated MMA bout on May 16, which will be streamed on Netflix.
Ahead of the fight, during the first press conference, Rousey didn’t shy away from taking some serious shots at UFC and Dana White. Rousey slammed UFC for its pay structure and labeled it as the worst place to go as a young MMA fighter to earn money.
According to Ronda Rousey, Jake Paul‘s MVP is a fighter’s first promotion, and she is glad working with such an organisation. Following these comments, UFC veteran Jorge Masvidal shared his opinion and backed Dana White against Rousey.
“Her eyes, her nose, her teeth like what type of demonology is she on? This is spooky. Ronda’s never been the best on the mic. She just says things that are weird. Her taking shots at Dana – Dana made you,” said Jorge Masvidal via Deatherow MMA.
This can be done
Ronda Rousey was dominating in Strikeforce when the UFC signed her, bringing women’s MMA into the mainstream spotlight globally. Her arrival changed women’s sports forever, as she became the inaugural UFC women’s bantamweight champion and a global superstar.
Rousey earned millions through fights, endorsements, and Hollywood, inspiring countless young athletes while becoming a powerful cultural icon worldwide. Despite past remarks about Dana White, he has largely supported Rousey and wished her success in her upcoming ventures.

UFC star opens up on why legends like Ronda Rousey have grown critical of the promotion
UFC has had beef with its top fighters for as long as fans can remember, and most have been public. Apart from the whole anti-trust lawsuit, many other fighters and veterans have come forward to mention how they were mistreated.
Apart from Ronda Rousey, other big names such as Jon Jones have also been very vocal about their severed relationship with UFC. Former UFC bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley recently talked about this and shared his unfiltered opinion.
“It’s crazy to see all these top guys have an issue with the UFC. Who would Conor, Jones, and Ronda be without the UFC? If they feel like they’re being treated unfairly, speak up. You’ve got to be grateful for what you’ve gotten from the UFC,” said Sean O’Malley via his YouTube.
Currently, the Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano card is shaping up to be incredible with the new addition of Nate Diaz vs. Mike Perry. Fans are directly comparing it with the upcoming much-anticipated UFC Freedom 250 card. It will be interesting if Jake Paul’s fight card can surpass UFC and break the current monopoly over MMA.
