Rose Namajunas convincingly won her headlining fight against Tracy Cortez at UFC ON ESPN 59 last night by unanimous decision and then floated the idea of fighting for a women’s version of the symbolic ‘BMF’ title.
Of course naturally the former strawweight champion’s first priority is continuing to push on towards a flyweight title shot.
“Give me the belt, man, I want it,” Namajunas said in the Octagon after her victory. “I’m Colorado’s first UFC champion so I want to bring the second one back here.
However, it seems she wouldn’t mind a detour along the way to fight for a women’s ‘BMF’ title too.
“Either that or maybe a women’s BMF, I don’t know!”
That being said, ‘Thug’ Rose admitted later backstage that she may not have been entirely serious about that idea, though despite that it seems she must have given it some thought as she had a potential opponent in mind.
“I don’t know, I was just joking actually,” Namajunas said at the post-fight presser. “But I know Joanna [Jedrzejczyk] says she would come back for a women’s BMF, so that would just be for fun. I love her. I don’t know, I think I was just kind of joking there. I don’t know what I was thinking.”
Namajunas has already fought former strawweight champ Jedrzejczyk twice in her career, TKO’ing her in November of 2017 to win the 115lb title for the first time and then winning on the scorecards via unanimous decision in their immediate rematch in April of 2018.
Jedrzejczyk would go on to retire in 2022 after back-to-back losses against Zhang Weili, but clearly Namajumas still has a lot of respect for the popular Polish star to have name-dropped her first when discussing potential BMF opponents.
