When Marina Rodriguez and Michelle Waterson-Gomez squared off in the feature fight of UFC Fight Night 228 on Sept. 23, both were in need of some redemption, but not equally so. Rodriguez entered the cage on a two-fight skid, but as those losses had come against ranked fighters in Amanda Lemos and Virna Jandiroba, Rodriguez only needed to prove that she was still Top 10 material herself and that at 36, she might still be a factor in the Ultimate Fighting Championship strawweight title picture.
