About Rose Namajunas
Technique, movement and two reigns as champion
Rose Namajunas has built a career defined by big wins over some of the best fighters of her generation. She came to the UFC through The Ultimate Fighter and, after falling short in her first attempt at the title, produced one of the biggest upsets in women's MMA by knocking out Joanna Jędrzejczyk in 2017. She then confirmed the result by beating her again in the rematch.
Fighting style
Years later she regained the belt with a spectacular head kick against Zhang Weili and beat her again in her first defense. Namajunas is defined by very mobile, technical striking, with excellent footwork, speed moving in and out of range and the ability to mix straight punches with kicks. Her grappling experience also makes her a submission threat when the fight hits the mat.
A new chapter at flyweight
After losing the championship again to Carla Esparza, Namajunas left strawweight and began a new chapter at flyweight. At 125 pounds she has mixed important wins with losses to some of the best contenders in the division. Her experience and technical quality keep her in the competitive mix of an ever deeper division.
