Namayunas will be only too happy to fight for the title.

"The last couple years of my life have been challenging. But I've never let the difficulty stop me. I feel good about myself at flyweight. I didn't like that I wasn't sharp enough, but there was enough strength. It's good that I'm developing in wrestling. It was weird to perform without an audience, I'm used to crazy press conferences and weigh-ins in front of crowds of people. Plus, the Apex arena has a smaller octagon, that's unusual too. Fighting for the title? If they give me a title shot, I'd love nothing more than that. I understand how things work - a fight for the belt has to be earned. It was weird that I'm not in the top 15 of my weight. I like the idea of coming up from the bottom in a new division."
