After nearly a year without fans, the UFC returns to pay-per-view with 15,000 in attendance for UFC 261. Headlined by Usman vs Masvidal 2 in the Vystar Veterans Memorial Arena, Saturday’s card features a trio of title fights and six current or former champions.
Saturday’s co-main event behind Usman vs Masvidal 2, is a strawweight title defense in the women’s division between Weili Zhang (21-1) and Rose Namajunas (10-4). The champion, Zhang, has won her last 21 fights and looks to defend her title once again from a former champion in Namajunas.
Zhang vs Namajunas brings the belt full circle for the challenger, who has worked her way back to the top spot behind Zhang. In 2017, Namajunas took the strawweight belt from Joanna Jedrzejczyk, then defended it in a rematch against Jedrzejczyk in 2018. In May 2019, Namajunas lost the title to Jessica Andrade (21-8), who then lost the title that August to Zhang. Zhang then defended the belt against Jedrzejczyk last May, and Namajunas’ revenge victory over Andrade last summer then put her in position for Saturday’s challenge to reclaim her championship.
