Here's everything you need to know about the women's flyweight main event on Saturday in Las Vegas.
The main card at UFC Apex will be on ESPN and ESPN+ at 10 p.m. ET, with prelims on ESPN+ at 7 p.m.Namajunas , ranked ninth at flyweight, has lost two fights in a row. She made her debut at 125 pounds in September, dropping a decision toIf Namajunas hopes to make a title run at 125 pounds, it all starts with a potential win over Ribas. In her last fight, Namajunas had trouble finding her rhythm and lost a decision to Fiorot.
Stylistically, this fight favors Namajunas. Ribas has taken a lot of damage in her three UFC losses and she had to come from behind to get the win in her last bout after almost being KO'd early. I have a hard time seeing where Ribas wins this fight, as Namajunas is better no matter where the fight goes, and we have seen Namajunas knock out her opponents in the past.
