"That would be my dream matchup," Namajunas told ESPN. "Obviously I'm a huge admirer of [Shevchenko]. Just as a martial artist, I think she's like the best martial artist in the women's and just in general... I had this goal of being a two-division champion when I first started. And here we are, so it's sort of like my last goal... I really do admire her a lot and respect her a lot. So that would be kind of weird. But we also train together. So it would be like, at least we're getting paid for doing what we're doing."
"I think after Manon [Fiorot], yes," Namajunas said. "And I think [if] in spectacular fashion, then of course. I have seen a bunch of headlines of me saying that I wanna skip [Fiorot]... I never said that. I think she deserves it next but I would like to be next after that for sure."
