While appearing on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Tuesday, Ronda Rousey, UFC Fighter dropped the news that she will be retiring soon. Her lost on Holly Holm last Nov. 2015 changed a lot about her career plan. Ronda Rousey's next fight could be the last that she will do.

Rousey on Sporting News said, "Not that long, I'm wrapping it up,". She added, 'This is definitely one of my last fights. Everyone better watch, because the show's not going to be around forever.". She is set to fight, Amanda Nunes at Madison Square Garden this coming Dec. 30. Her comeback bout since 2015 will one of the fights she will do before retirement.

Larry Brown Sports commented that the loss she experienced took her career plan to a different path. Her tarnished undefeated record was her motivation for the goals she set. It seems that the Rousey's contemplating to do more than fighting if she will lose to Nunes, the possibility of early retirement is not out-of-question.

Ronda Rousey next fight explained on Hollywood Life; she feels tired about the fight's building anxiety. She said, "I think it's more the build up that's more tiring than anything else," she revealed. "If we had a fight right now, I'd fight right now and then go get dinner, and I wouldn't be that tired about it. It's like the weeks and weeks of build up before hand when you know you're fighting this one person, and it's the most important thing in your whole life, and then millions of people are watching. It's that build up for weeks on end if it just happened right now I wouldn't be nervous at all it's the waiting."

Ronda's anxiety over the fight takes a toll on her; she knows that she trained well for the fight and she can do it. Though, knowing that it is her comeback since her defeat made it more meaningful. Ellen's interview included her medical condition, she suffered an injury after her Holm bout last year.

"I've been training twice a day since August," she said. "I finally feel like I'm super ninja good!"She said on People.
