Namajunas is on a quest for flyweight gold and has two solid options that she feels will help her earn a shot at the 125 pound championship title.

Namajunas lost a points decision to Erin Blanchfield in her last outing in November, describing it as hitting a "speed bump" and has also been beaten by title contender Manon Fiorot. The Milwaukee native, who is 13-7 overall in her MMA career, says her goal is to earn a title shot.

Former champs Kamaru Usman, Rose Namajunas and Cody Garbrandt went 2-1 at UFC Atlanta, setting them down varying paths forward.

After ‘Bullet’ got past Manon Fiorot at UFC 315 in May, she was quickly called out by the queen from below, strawweight titleholder Zhang Weili. Having cemented herself as the dominant force at 115 pounds, the Chinese star is after the opportunity to join Nunes as only the second two-division female champ in UFC history.
