UFC Paris event was co-headlined by a key women’s flyweight matchup between Rose Namajunas and Manon Fiorot.
Rose Namajunas (12-6 MMA) was returning to action for the first time since losing the strawweight title to Carla Esparza at UFC 274 in May of 2022. Prior that setback, ‘Thug’ was on a three-fight winning streak, which included back-to-back victories over reigning strawweight queen Zhang Weili.
Meanwhile, Manon Fiorot (11-1 MMA) entered the Octagon this afternoon sporting a ten-fight win streak, her most recent being a unanimous decision victory over Katlyn Chookagian in October of last year. ‘The Beast’ had gone a perfect 5-0 under the Ultimate Fighting Championship banner ahead of today’s contest.
Today’s UFC Paris main event proved to be a closely contested back and forth affair. Rose Namajunas attempts to get the fight to the floor on numerous occasions, but Manon Fiorot did a great job of keeping the fight standing for the majority of the fifteen-minute contest. While both fighters landed some big shots, it was Manon who got off the better volume. With that, Fiorot pulled off an impressive unanimous decision victory.
