Following Li Jingliang's defeat to the "Wolf King" Chimayev at UFC 267, and immediately after the "Gun and Rose" battle was about to be staged in New York's Madison Square Garden on November 7, Ross Namajunas was nicknamed "Mob Rose" and Zhang Weili's nickname was "Magnum" (a revolver of the largest caliber). Zhang Weili's first meeting with Ross Namajunas was in UFC 261, when, just 78 seconds after the match started, Ross Namajunas kicked Zhang Weili's head with a high sweep and then won in the form of a TKO, ending Zhang Weili's 21-game winning streak.
After the defeat, Zhang Weili was very unwilling, very depressed, and even cried and lost sleep, she has been looking forward to the second battle with Rose Namajunas, until the UFC officially announced that it will be held on November 7 in Madison Square Garden in New York, as the game time approaches, can Zhang Weili "revenge" succeed?
As the saying goes, "Knowing the other, you can survive a hundred battles", whether Zhang Weili can "revenge" success depends entirely on her opponent Ross Namajunas, a mixed martial artist and one of the most technically gifted women in the octagon today, who has become the 4th youngest female champion in UFC history at the age of 26.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="9" >" "Mob Rose" from the slums</h1>
Ross Namajunas was born on June 29, 1992 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Usa, to Lithuanian refugee parents, and Ross has an older brother. Her mother was a classical musician by training, and she developed Ross's fighting skills and creativity. Ross' experience in music has made her an important advocate for art education in schools, but her passion remains sports.
Ross Namayunas grew up in a slum where black people were all over the world, filled with drugs and violence of all kinds. She was the only white girl there, and she grew up with a lot of bullying and violence, having burned down her family's garage, stabbed to death by acquaintances around her, and sexually assaulted. To protect herself, her face always showed an evil expression, which led to her being called "Mob Rose" by her friends.
As a way to escape and protect herself, Ross turned to the world of martial arts, and she helped her overcome many of the difficulties she faced in life by learning martial arts. Rose began practicing taekwondo at the age of 5, received a juvenile black belt at the age of 9, and later studied karate and jiu-jitsu. Trained in taekwondo and mixed martial arts during her high school years, she was also an excellent cross-country runner, and her good performances at MMA were all due to her childhood experiences and her crazy way of training.
Since 2010, Ross has been competing in MMA competitions as an amateur. She trained at the Minnesota Martial Arts Academy and set an amateur record of 4-0. On January 5, 2013, Rose made his professional debut in Invikta and won the race in the form of a TKO.
As a professional athlete and martial artist, she had to sacrifice a lot for most of her life to reach the peak she had reached, even if it meant cutting off her once beautiful long blonde hair just to improve her level of competition. She is known for her impressive technique and has beaten some of the best women in the sport. She later signed up for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and competed in the women's strawweight competition, where she eventually won the championship.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="25" > second, Zhang Weili's terminator</h1>
Since the debut of MMA, Zhang Weili, the "first woman's UFC" from China, has been invincible all the way. Zhang Weili is 163cm tall and weighs about 55kg, known for her physical strength, explosive strength and strong blowing power, and she has defeated Danielle Taylor, Jessica Aguilar and Tiscia Torres on the way to the championship.
In August 2019, Zhang Weili defeated Brazil's Jessica Andrade (nicknamed "Piling Machine") in 42 seconds to win her own sketch W8 belt and become China's first UFC champion. She retained the title in a war with former champion Joanna Yedel Zesik.
But unfortunately for Zhang Weili, during the match against Ross Namajunas, early in the first set, Zhang Weili was distracted by the influence of the audience, and Rose knocked her down with a beautiful high sweep, making Rose the first woman to win a two-time UFC championship.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="40" >3, can Zhang Weili succeed in "revenge"? </h1>
Ross. Namayunas is characterized by playing very smart, the ability to seize opportunities is very strong, even if it is an instinctive reaction, but also know how to fight, on the field she plays sharply, her body is strange and changeable, off the field, she behaves calmly and peacefully, has faith, not arrogant, not rampant, and even "stupid" state, but you can feel her strength from her calm, her two defeats "Arrogant Queen" Joanna is proof, shouting and psychological warfare are useless, the results of the battle are all based on strength. As Rose said, "Fighting isn't just about honing your skills, it's more about being strong inside." This belt is nothing, the most important thing is to be a good person. ”
The light that can still be emitted after experiencing pain will be more dazzling, the rainbow after the rainstorm will be brighter and more delicate, and the rose with thorns will still leave the fragrance to the world, which is the best gift that the "mob rose" brings to all those who have experienced suffering in the world.
In terms of probability, Rose, Joanna, Andrad, and Zhang Weili are currently the four strongest in the women's grassweight, and it is not surprising that any of them won the gold belt. In the fighting arena, especially in the order of magnitude, which is very competitive, there is no claim between the high rankings who wins steadily, and everything is possible.
Undoubtedly, for Zhang Weili, Ross. Namayunas is a difficult opponent, Rose has skills, is calm and talented, but Zhang Weili is very strong, very strong, and very good at technology. So, I believe in Zhang Weili more, I think she will definitely be able to beat Rose.
