"The mixed martial arts world will see a new product this weekend with the launch of Most Valuable Promotions' MVP "Rousey vs. Carano" as Jake Paul puts his brand in a showcase event on Netflix, featuring the return of Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano."
"Paul has shown that he is open to new opportunities and challenges with his promotion, searching for ways to elevate the sport between multiple companies. During an appearance on 'Undefeated & Undisputed' with Chael Sonnen and Ian Parker on Smash Cast Media, Paul talked about the future of MVP, going as far as to say he'd be open to co-promoting with the PFL."
"When talking to Sherdog.com, Carmouche, who is coming off a 2025 year in which she won the PFL women's flyweight tournament, is quite interested in a crossover fight.

""That would be amazing," Carmouche said. "I think for one, Jake Paul's doing a great job with being able to get the fighters the money they deserve, showcasing them, and getting attention on them. Whether people are like 'Oh this isn't a real fight' or not, people are tuning in, they want to see the fights regardle"
