UFC Denver Preview Show | What's At Stake For Rose Namajunas, Tracy Cortez In Main Event?

MMA Fighting

Former UFC champion Rose Namajunas has a new opponent for Saturday's UFC Denver headliner as it shifts from Maycee Barber to Tracy Cortez. Are the stakes the same for "Thug Rose" in a hometown fight, and if Cortez can pull off the upset, where would that put her at 125-pounds?

Ahead of this weekend's UFC Fight Night event, MMA Fighting's Mike Heck, José Youngs, and Alexander K. Lee preview the card, the headliner between Namajunas and Cortez, and discuss the chances of the winner sneaking into a title fight. Additionally, the panel will talk other standout fights, the excitement surrounding Drew Dober vs. Jean Silva fight at 155-pounds, and more.
