Miranda Maverick announced a fight against Rose Namajunas on June 14, expected to take place at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. This event marks a return for UFC to Georgia, being the first non-pay-per-view event held there. Namajunas, a two-time strawweight champion, has had mixed results in the flyweight division, while Maverick is on a four-fight winning streak. The two fighters have shared training experiences, and Maverick expressed admiration for Namajunas, emphasizing her impact on women's MMA and their upcoming bout's significance.
Rose Namajunas has been an inspiration for so many women, especially in WMMA, and I am no exception. I watched her fight as I was coming up in the sport.
If this remains the case, it will be the first non-pay-per-view show held in the capital city of Georgia.
