There will be much at stake for Rose Namajunas tonight (Sat., July 30, 2016) at UFC 201 when she takes on undefeated Polish sensation Karolina Kowalkiewicz from Atlanta, Georgia. Not only will "Thug" put her three-fight win streak on the line, but she can essentially lock down a title shot with a victory.
If she can do that, Namajunas will soon find herself across the cage from current Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk. While Namajunas fought for the 115-pound title once before, losing to Carla Esparza back in 2014, she has never faced someone quite like Jedrzejczyk.
