Carla Esparza calls out Rose Namajunas

Carla Esparza put on an absolute clinic against Yan Xiaonan in the co-main event of UFC Vegas 27 in what was a dominating performance from the former champion. With the victory, Esparza picked up her fifth straight win and could well be the next title contender for Rose Namajunas’ belt.

Esparza cut Xiaonan in the first round after landing a takedown in the very first round. Esparza dictated the pace of the entire fight, controlling Yan for as long as the fight lasted. Needless to say, she showed holes in Yan’s game who had looked absolutely incredible so far in her UFC career. Xiaonan was undefeated in her UFC career, and the loss against Carla Esparza marked the first loss of her UFC career.

Esparza was ranked #4 in the UFC strawweight, and now with a win over the #3 ranked strawweight, Esparza has done enough to land a title opportunity.
