EFL reveal 'Spygate' hearing timescale
Southampton's fate in the Championship play-offs hangs in the balance as EFL hearing is set for May 19.
Ronda Rousey is set to headline Netflix's first MMA event against Gina Carano on May 16. Despite her marketability and talent, a win will not significantly alter her standing among all-time MMA greats.
Only one female MMA fighter is marketable enough, charismatic enough and talented enough for Netflix to stream its first MMA event with that fighter headlining the event.
Only one female MMA fighter has the skill and brashness to sell the event, rip the UFC for low compensation for fighters and vow her fight will be the greatest in MMA history.
Yes, weâre talking about Ronda Rousey.
Her upcoming fight with Gina Carano validates sheâs still the most valuable fighter in MMA. But no matter how convincing the 39-year-old Rousey has performed before the fight, a victory against the 44-year-old Carano Saturday, May 16, will do nothing to impact how she stacks up the greats of all time.
A look at her record and statistics will shed some light.

Rouseyâs career record is 12-2 with three knockouts and nine submissions. In nine of her 12 victories, she needed 66 seconds or less to vanquish her opponents. Just one of her victories went past the first round.
Those numbers are extraordinary.
But in Rouseyâs last two fights, Holly Holm and Amanda Nunes did more than knock out Rousey. They exposed her limitations.
Rousey, who won an Olympic bronze medal in judo at the 2008 Beijing Games, has demonstrated elite grappling skills. But Holm and Nunes capitalized on her weak striking game.
Then there is the question of competition.
Rousey is No. 3 on ESPNâs Top 10 list of the best women's MMA fighters of the 21st century. During her career she had two victories over fighters in the Top 10 â both over Miesha Tate. Tate is No. 8 on ESPNâs list.
Zhang Weili, No. 7 on the list, has two victories against women in the Top 10. Rose Namajunas, No. 6 on ESPNâs list, has four victories against women in the Top 10. Victoria Shevchenko, No. 4 on the list, has three victories against women in the Top 10.
Nunes, who ESPN ranks as the top female fighter of the 21st Century, has six victories over fighters in ESPNâs Top 10.
What worked against Rousey in amassing Top 10 victories was she had only eight fights in the UFC. In part, thatâs because she fled after losing to Holm and Nunes.
The top of any list should be reserved for fighters willing to finish challenges after adversity hits.
