Former UFC strawweight champion Rose Namajunas meets Tracy Cortez in the women’s flyweight main event of UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Denver.
The fights at Ball Arena will be on ESPN and ESPN+, with the main card starting at 10 p.m. ET and prelims at 7 p.m.
Namajunas (12-6), ranked ninth at flyweight, is coming off a unanimous decision win over Amanda Ribas in March, which ended a two-fight skid.
Cortez (11-1) has not lost since her MMA debut in 2017. Her most recent victory was a unanimous decision over Jasmine Jasudavicius in September.
Cortez was originally scheduled to fight next week but was called upon as a replacement after Namajunas’ opponent, Maycee Barber, withdrew because of injury.
