Former UFC strawweight champion Rose Namajunas commented on her unsuccessful debut in the flyweight division.

Recall that last weekend the American was defeated by the decision of the judges from the Frenchwoman Manon Firio, during the fight she broke her finger. The fight took place as part of the UFC Fight Night 226 tournament, which took place in the homeland of the latter - in Paris.

“I want to stay in this division. I will not return to the minimum weight. I felt better because I didn’t have to lose a lot of weight. I'm definitely going to work harder in the gym and get stronger. Fioro and I had the same arm span. She was bigger than me, but not so much that I had no chance, ”quotes Namajunas MMA Fighting.
