Appearing on Fox Sports’ “The Herd,” the UFC president confirmed Rousey will face Amanda Nunes on at UFC 207 on Dec. 30. The 29-year-old has kept a low profile since her loss to Holm, so her return will surely draw a lot of attention.

“It was never really about a psychological problem with Ronda,” White said about the long delay between fights. “The thing with Ronda is she wanted time off.”
Nunes (13-4) won the bantamweight title in July when she defeated Miesha Tate at UFC 200 by first-round submission. Tate had previously taken the title from Holm.
No other fights have been announced for UFC 207.
