In 2017, Rose Namajunas captured the UFC strawweight title with a first-round knockout win over Joanna Jedrzejczyk. The stoppage gave Namajunas four finishes in the UFC 115-pound division. Her victory also ended the 14-fight winning streak of Jedrzejczyk. On Saturday, Namajunas gets the chance to win that title back, take the top spot in UFC strawweight history in finishes and end the 21-fight winning streak of current 115-pound UFC champ, Weili Zhang.
Namajunas’ reign at the top of the division was a short one. She defeated Jedrzejczyk in a rematch, but lost the belt in her next outing when Jessica Andrade, who fights for the flyweight title at UFC 261, slammed Namajunas on her head.
