The second battle between UFC women's grassweight Zhang Weili and Rose ended on November 7, this "revenge battle" is based on the background of Zhang Weili being KO for 76 seconds in April, everyone is looking forward to it, helplessly, even though Zhang Weili is fully prepared, the first four rounds performed well, but in the fifth round, she was forcibly held down by Rose for more than 4 minutes, thus ruthlessly announcing her defeat, she lost to Rose again.
The result of the post-match match was controversial, and some people supported Zhang Weili's victory, believing that she had performed better in the previous few rounds, but Zhang Weili was a challenger and needed to overwhelm the opponent with an absolute advantage in the game to get back the golden belt, so the referee thought that Rose's victory was reasonable.
The outcome of this game has a great impact, at least for Zhang Weili, she almost temporarily lost the possibility of fighting Rose again, after the game UFC chairman Bai Dana made a clear statement, Rose already has the next competition candidate, and this person will not be Zhang Weili.
In addition, the new UFC ranking is released, according to Zhang Weili's performance, her record in the UFC is 5 wins and 2 losses, and its specific ranking is as follows:
Surrounded by many foreign players, Zhang Weili ranked fourth, or "China's first sister".
As a former Hebei women's sanda athlete, Zhang Weili's career is quite legendary, after she turned to MMA, she became famous in 2019, defeated Tesia Torres, and raised the UFC ranking to the top ten, in August of the same year, Zhang Weili took only 42 seconds to take Jessica Andrade KO, won the grassweight world gold belt, this moment attracted attention, because this honor made Zhang Weili become Asia's first UFC world champion, the well-deserved UFC "China's first sister"
2020 is also the year of Zhang Weili's outbreak, she and Joanna successfully defended the title, which further improved Zhang Weili's world ranking to the third place, and in 2021, Zhang Weili ushered in her career rival Rose, a defeat, her world ranking slipped to fourth, and now after the end of the second battle, she is still stuck in the fourth place.
Even if Zhang Weili loses this time, under the trend of "siege" by foreign strong players, Zhang Weili is the only Chinese in the top ten, and the second is Yan Xiaonan, who ranks 11th in the list.
Some time ago, China's Li Jingliang also regretted defeating Qimayev, unlike Zhang Weili's five rounds of entanglement, Li Jingliang was countered in the first round, strangled in the ring, after the game, many professionals have analyzed the reasons for Li Jingliang's defeat, and the famous Zheng Huanyu is even more blunt about China's lack of MMA soil, and the players are fighting alone.
There is no mature event, it is difficult to find training objects, the audience is limited, these are the facts of the lack of growth soil, even in today's "harsh" environment, China still rises Zhang Weili and Li Jingliang and other strong people, so that Chinese martial arts continue to develop.
The charm of sports competition comes from perseverance and struggle, Zhang Weili's defeat in the second battle is only for a while, no matter whether she can organize three battles in the end, her courageous and enterprising spirit is worth learning, under the lack of soil, she is still the pillar of Chinese fighters and fans, looking forward to her rise one day!
