Watch the title rematch from UFC 268.

The co-feature of UFC 268 was a strawweight title rematch between Rose Namajunas and Weili Zhang. In their first contest, Namajunas took the belt by catching Zhang with a perfectly placed lead head kick, this was completely different. It was close and competitive, and went all five rounds.

I’m not sure how anyone could score that 4-1 for Namajunas, but she took home the belt in a split decision.

Check out the highlights from the bout below, along with a snippet from our play-by-play of the contest.

Rose Namajunas vs. Zhang Weili, Round 5

Weili with a right and a leg kick. Weili ducks under but is rebuffed. Rose with a beautiful double leg takedown. Namajunas with rights. Weili is trying to pop up but Rose is very effective on top. Not much happening, but Rose is still on top. Weili is given some space, but still looks for upkicks instead of scooting away. 10-9 and 48-47 Namajunas.

Rose Namajunas defeated Zhang Weili via split decision (47-48, 48-47, 49-46)
