UFC has announced that the main event of the UFC 157 pay-per-view will be Ronda Rousey vs. Liz Carmouche. It is the first female fight in UFC history. For more, visit TMZ.com.

Powell's POV: Carmouche served in the U.S. Marines and has a 7-2 record. The show takes place on February 23 in Anaheim, California. Rousey has become such a star that she's changed Dana White's mind on female fighting. White previously stated that women would never fight in UFC. As someone who enjoys competitive female fights, I'm happy to see he's changed his tune.
