After a one-week hiatus, Ultimate resumes its activities this Saturday (13) at UFC Denver. In the main fight of the show, the former champion Rose namajunas is looking for the second belt, now at flyweight (up to 56,7kg), and to do so, he will need to go through the promise Tracy Cortez, which is undefeated in the organization. In total, 12 clashes are scheduled for the show, with three Brazilian athletes.

Sixth place in the flyweight rankings, Rose namajunas returns to the Octagon after achieving her first victory in the new category against the Brazilian Amanda ribas. 'Thug's' rival will be the promise Tracy Cortez, number 11 in the group, who has been standing out in the organization and is undefeated in five fights wearing Ultimate gloves.
Just two weeks after knocking out Charles Jourdain No. UFC 303, Jean Silva accepted the organization's last-minute call and will face the veteran Drew dober, in a duel in the lightweight division (up to 70,3kg). For the welterweight category, Gabriel Bonfim seeks to recover from the first defeat of his career, suffered in UFC Sao Paulo, last November, and to do so, you will need to go through the Congolese Ange Loosa, who was never beaten by the fast track as a professional.
First Brazilian to step into the Octagon at UFC Denver, Luana Santos arrives motivated by its two consecutive victories and the unbeaten record maintained in the organization. To continue with her immaculate record wearing Ultimate gloves and continue dreaming of the top of the flyweight division, the judoka will face off against the Kazakh Maria Agapova which comes from two consecutive defeats, three in its last four matches.
