The UFC on FOX 24 co-main event witnessed the #4 strawweight Rose Namajunas choke out the #6 Michelle Waterson in the second round of the co-main event. With the impressive win over Waterson, Namajunas will more than likely compete next for the UFC’s 115 title.
Waterson was able to score a head and arm throw to start the fight, but Namajunas cleverly transitioned to the back, and then to top position. Namajunas landed some mean elbows from top control, and although Waterson threatened with submission attempts, Rose seemed to do enough to snag the first round.
