UFC 251’s Andrade wants to show that first Namajunas win was no fluke: ‘It’s how I fight’

Former UFC strawweight champion Jessica Andrade is ready to show everyone that she did not win the world title due to a lucky shot. Although the Brazilian was being picked apart by then-champ Rose Namajunas back in May 2019, only to then turn the bout around and knock ‘Thug’ out with a vicious power slam in the second round, ‘Bate-Estaca’ does not consider the finish a fluke.

Now paired up against Namajunas again at UFC 251, Andrade tells Combate she is eager to go out there and show the world how everything she does is part of the plan.
