The UFC swings back into action on Saturday, July 13. The promotion heads to Ball Arena in Denver, CO, where former two-time UFC Strawweight champion Rose Namajunas will continue her quest for flyweight gold when she faces No. 11 ranked Tracy Cortez in the main event.
The one in Denver is an upper-echelon Fight Night event. Initially, Namajunas was set to face top flyweight contender Maycee Barber, but the latter had to pull out due to an injury. Cortez is a solid replacement, and the rest of the card fits the bill to make for a strong Fight Night. Cortez is a magnetic star with an impressive 11-1 professional record. Grabbing a win over Namajunas would do wonders for her career moving forward and perhaps set her up for a fight with someone on the cusp of a title shot. In addition to Ponzinibbio-Salikhov, Dober-Silva could easily win the fight of the night honors.
We’ll also see the return of the dynamic Gabriel Bonfim. The uber-talented Brazilian had his hype train derailed in his last fight, a loss to Nicholas Dalby. Bonfim was dominating that fight, but he ran out of gas and was finished by the grizzled veteran in the second round. Bonfim will be looking to rebound with a win over Ange Loosa.
