Rose Namajunas Discusses Knocking Off Tracy Cortez’s Fake Eyelash at UFC Denver

Rose Namajunas recently weighed in on arguably the most memorable moment of her latest win over Tracy Cortez.

Namajunas faced Cortez, who replaced Maycee Barber on short notice, in the main event at UFC on ESPN 59 at the Ball Arena in Denver on Saturday. Namajunas landed the crisper strikes and even got the better of Cortez in most grappling exchanges to earn a unanimous decision victory. However, the most memorable moment of the fight was arguably when Namajunas dropped Cortez with a left hook in the opening frame, which also sent one of the latter’s fake eyelashes flying.
