Jake Paul’s Promotion Hit With Rigging Claims as Viral Ronda Rousey Backstage Clip Goes Viral
Ronda Rousey delivered a perfect ending to her legendary MMA career by submitting Gina Carano in just 17 seconds. It was an iconic performance by “Rowdy.” However, everyone in the arena was shocked when the fight ended quickly, and fans on social media started claiming it was scripted.
Fans accused Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions of rigging the fight. Netflix showed Rousey practicing the takedown during her warm-up, and after that clip was caught on camera, fans started talking about how the UFC Hall of Famer was rehearsing the script before the “fight.”
