- MVP Promotions has assembled one of the most stacked MMA cards of 2026 for its first-ever MMA event on Netflix, and it rivals the UFC's biggest shows this year.
- Three featured bouts bring together a former UFC bantamweight champion, a former UFC heavyweight champion and one of the most recognizable names in combat sports history.
- The undercard adds former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos, undefeated flyweight Muhammad Mokaev and former Bellator welterweight champion Jason Jackson.
Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano was a major draw on its own, but MVP Promotions has put together a card for its first-ever MMA show on Netflix that rivals anything the UFC has done this year. One could argue it is as good--if not better than the UFC White House card.
In addition to Rousey and Carano's return to MMA, the show will also feature Francis Ngannou taking on Phillipe Lins and Nate Diaz facing Mike Perry to round out the featured presentations. Quite honestly, that would have been more than enough for the promotion's first show. The undercard is also very strong. Here is a breakdown of the full card and all of the viewing information.

The event takes place Saturday, May 16, 2026, at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. The prelim card starts at 5 PM ET with the main card beginning at 8 PM ET.
The entire card streams live globally on Netflix at no extra cost for subscribers. All bouts are sanctioned under the Unified Rules of MMA with 4-ounce gloves inside a hexagonal cage. Tickets are available through Ticketmaster.
Key Names on the Undercard
The depth here is what separates this card. Junior dos Santos, a former UFC heavyweight champion, returns to MMA for the first time since 2022 against Karate Combat champion Robelis Despaigne.
Muhammad Mokaev (15-0) is one of the best flyweights in the world and faces three-time ONE Championship titleholder Adriano Moraes. Mokaev was dumped by the UFC and has been campaigning to rejoin the promotion. Landing a fight on the MVP card is huge for him.
Former Bellator welterweight champion Jason Jackson takes on veteran Lorenz Larkin. Aline Pereira, sister of UFC two-division champion Alex Pereira, also competes on the card.
