Rose Namajunas continues her flyweight journey when she takes on Tracy Cortez this Saturday night at UFC Fight Night Denver.
Let’s be honest, Namajunas endured a rough start to life at the new weight as she fell to a unanimous decision loss against Manon Fiorot.
Despite this, the two-time UFC strawweight champion was able to bounce back when she picked up a unanimous decision win over her own against Amanda Ribas back in March.
Thug Rose was meant to take on Maycee Barber in her next bout, but due to health problems she was replaced by Tracy Cortez.
Since her victory on Dana White’s Contender Series, Cortez has followed up with five-straight UFC wins.
The 30-year-old is undefeated with the organisation but has never faced anyone of Namajunas’ quality.
Elsewhere, welterweight veterans Muslim Salikhov and Santiago Ponzinibbio will go head-to-head.
Salikhov has lost three of his last four outings and takes on Ponzinibbio who has tasted four defeats from six.
