The UFC muse Ronda Rousey announced last week that he could hang up his gloves and retire from MMA in two years. Then the blonde went back and left an air of mystery on the subject. However, for the president of the event, Dana White, there is no possibility of the female champion leaving the organization until 2015.

Speaking to journalists during the UFC Fight Night 26 press conference, White guaranteed Rousey's stay in Ultimate for a while longer. “She said she would retire in four years, right? At least that's what I understood”, said Dana, who was soon corrected by the journalists present. “Did she say two? There is not the slightest possibility”, said the top hat smiling.
