With the retirement of Amanda nunes, the female featherweight category (up to 65,7kg.) ended up helpless, but coach Eric Albarracin seems to have the solution. On social media, the renowned mentor of Henry Cejudo suggested that Ronda Rousey, UFC legend, returned to active duty and took over the position left by the 'Lione'.

“Ronda should return as a featherweight to save the division,” Albarracin published.

Retired since 2016, when she entered the octagon for the last time in the tough defeat against her own Amanda nunes, Ronda does not express interest in returning to MMA. In recent years, the first Ultimate champion has dedicated herself to performing in the renowned WWE (wrestling).

Moments after the retirement of Amanda nunes, who hung up his gloves sporting belts in both featherweight and bantamweight (up to 61,2kg.), Dana White spoke about the future of the division that was also once Chris Cyborg. Without optimism, the UFC president indicated the end of the category without the presence of the 'Lionea'.

Quoted by Albarracin, Ronda is 36 years old. Away from professional MMA competitions for almost seven years, the North American has made 14 appearances in the sport, including 12 triumphs and two setbacks.
