A No Nonsense Ronda Rousey Looked Super Jacked At The UFC 207 Weigh-Ins

Ronda Rousey continues to be a woman of few words as we quickly approach her big comeback fight on Friday night at UFC 207. A recent change to the way weigh-ins are handled means fighters get to weigh in with the athletic commission earlier in the day, making this evening’s festivities with thousands of fans at the T-Mobile Arena the ‘ceremonial’ weigh-ins. Rousey got in and out of the morning weigh-ins in under 10 seconds, and while she stuck around a bit longer at the ceremonial show, she still left without saying anything to anyone.

Her opponent, current UFC women’s champion Amanda Nunes, showed up wearing a lion mask, which was a nod to her nickname ‘The Lioness.’ The mask came off though when she and Rousey squared off for the crowd.

While there was no shoving or jostling between the two competitors, it was all serious as they stared each other down. But as soon as the face off was done with, Rousey exited stage right without participating in the traditional interview with host Joe Rogan.

Things weren’t quite as civil when co-headliners Cody Garbrandt and men’s bantamweight champion Dominik Cruz faced off. The two have been verbally sparring for weeks leading up to the event, and several times Garbrandt has had to be restrained by security before attempting to punch a hole through Cruz’s smug mouth. The weigh-ins were no different, and ended with the two fighters being held on opposite sides of the stage.

The rest of the card (which we must remind you is on Friday night, not the typical Saturday) looks pretty compelling as well:
