UFC Hall of Famer Ronda Rousey pivoted on some of her past concerning admissions about her neurological health ahead of her MMA comeback.

Ronda Rousey nearly broke the internet when it was announced she’ll make her first MMA appearance in 10 years against fellow fighting pioneer, Gina Carano, in an upcoming Most Valuable Promotions main event. Rousey will return to the cage for the first time since a loss to Amanda Nunes at UFC 207.

After months of teasing a potential MMA comeback with impressive training footage, Rousey will look to earn a win in her admitted ‘dream fight’ against Carano. But some are concerned about the UFC Hall of Famer’s health ahead of fight night, after previous comments about her history with concussions.

It turns out, Rousey’s concussion history might’ve been misdiagnosed.

Ronda Rousey hints concerning concussion history might have been misdiagnosed

In a recent appearance on The Jim Rome Show, Rousey was asked about her health and hinted that her past comments on her neurological state might have been based on a misdiagnosis.

“I lose big chunks of my vision, my depth perception and ability to think clearly. Dr. [Charles] Bernick at the Cleveland Clinic said ‘I’ve listened to all of your symptoms, I’ve looked at all of your scans, your brain looks great.’” Rousey said.

“I was telling him about my history and as a kid I would get migraines all the time and epilepsy runs in my family. Every generation of my family, someone’s had epilepsy and there’s some sort of link between epilepsy and migraines. He was saying that people that get migraines are more susceptible to getting concussions, and the more concussions I get, the easier it is to get a migraine.

“What he thinks is happening is that I’m not actually getting a concussion every single time that this is happening,” Rousey continued. “He thinks it’s setting off what’s called migraine aura where you just lose big chunks of your vision and it’s called cortical spreading depression. Where I guess your neurons get overly excited and depolarize and shut down in a wave and that’s why I lose chunks of my vision when I’m getting hit.” (h/t MMA Fighting)

Rousey went on to admit that UFC CEO Dana White referred her to several doctors to get scans done on her brain before agreeing to the fight with Carano. As MVP has shared in recent weeks, Rousey and Carano will continue to undergo medical testing ahead of their bout.
