The co-main fight of UFC 274, will mark a long-awaited rematch between Namajunas and Esparza. In the first duel, which took place in 2014, it was valid for the grand final of the reality show ‘The Ultimate Fighter’. Favorite in the tournament, ‘Cookie Monster’ submitted the then promising player in the third round, won the program title and, as a bonus, became the first champion in the history of the strawweight division. Eight years later, the veteran enters as a 'zebra' to try to dethrone the current owner of the belt.
