Former Strawweight Champion Rose Namajunas takes on Tracy Cortez in the main event at UFC Fight Night at Ball Arena in Denver on Saturday night. Namajunas (12-6), who recently moved up to women’s flyweight after losing the strawweight title in May 2022, struggled in her 125-pound debut against top contender Manon Fiorot last September, losing by unanimous decision. However, she bounced back with an impressive unanimous decision win over Amanda Ribas in March. On the other hand, Cortez (11-1) has put together an impressive 11-fight win streak dating back to November 2017. Most recently, Cortez beat Jasmine Jasudavicius by unanimous decision at Noche UFC last September. Cortez accepted this fight on short notice after Maycee Barber withdrew.
