Rose Namajunas Hints at Retirement Following KO Loss in UFC 237 Headliner

Rose Namajunas attempted to make her second strawweight title defense in enemy territory Saturday night in the main event of UFC 237. Instead, Jessica Andrade slammed the champ on her head and knocked her out cold in the second round of their headlining bout in Rio de Janeiro.

Following the loss, Namajunas was uncertain on her fighting future.

“Going into this one I was like, ‘This might be the last time I ever do this.’ But we’ll see. We’ll take it one day at a time. Like, this is a lot. But it was super fun.
