Miranda Maverick faced Rose Namajunas at UFC Atlanta, competing with a torn ACL sustained in the second round yet managed to keep the fight competitive. Although Maverick lost by unanimous decision, she threatened Namajunas with an arm-triangle choke and argued that her injury affected her balance, leading to a knockdown in the third round. Post-fight, she expressed gratitude for the experience and indicated plans for recovery before her return to the octagon after her four-fight winning streak.
Not the result I wanted but I fought with what I had. My ACL was torn in the second round... I'm blessed I was able to make it to the end of the fight.
I'll take this layoff in stride and you will see me again! But for now, time to recover and figure some things out.
