UFC 190: Rousey Vs. Correia Weigh In Results, Big Heavyweight Fight In The Works, Alistair Overeem
- UFC posted a new, 15 minute interview with Ronda Rousey, conducted by Megan Olivi. Rousey speaks about her preparation for the big UFC 190 card, as well as getting to Brazil early to get acclimated. You can see the full interview above.
- According to UFC Tonight's Ariel Helwani, the company isn't done trying to add to UFC 191 in September. The company is targeting Frank Mir vs. Andrei Arlovski for the show, which is headlined by Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson vs. John Dodson in a Flyweight Championship re-match.
The company also contacted Alistair Overeem for a spot on the card, who turned it down. Overeem instead said that he wanted to wait for Junior Dos Santos to heal up, which looks like it will happen in December.
- The UFC 190 fighters are all weighed in and ready to go for tomorrow night's huge show, which we'll have full coverage of tomorrow night. Among those who weighed in were UFC Women's Bantamweight Champion Ronda Rousey, as well as challenger Bethe Correia.
