Rose Namajunas vs. Tecia Torres Full Fight Video Highlights

Rose Namajunas was on the rampage for revenge (and possibly a women’s 115-pound title shot) when she met Tecia Torres in the co-main event of tonight’s (Sat., April 16, 2016) UFC on FOX 19 from the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. ‘The Tiny Tornado’ had already handed Namajunas a decision loss in Invicta FC when ‘Thug’

‘The Tiny Tornado’ had already handed Namajunas a decision loss in Invicta FC when ‘Thug’ was a much younger woman, and this time the Grudge Training Center contender was ready to come out on top.

In what turned out to be an impressively hard-fought bout, Namajunas outlasted Torres with an effective mix of striking and takedowns despite getting rocked by a big two-punch combo in the first round. It arguably could have gone either way, but Namajunas took home the close unanimous decision with a late takedown.

Rapidly ascending the women’s strawweight divisional ladder with three straight big wins, there’s not much to suggest ‘Thug’ Rose won’t be in the next women’s strawweight title affair after champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk and Claudia Gadelha finally settle their long-held feud at the culmination of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 23 in July.

Watch the highlights of Namajunas’ gritty win right here:

Twitter Reacts To Glover Teixeira’s Big Knockout Of Rashad Evans

UFC on FOX 19 popped off tonight (Sat. April 16, 2016) on network television from the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida. Despite losing the much anticipated lightweight contender bout between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson, the night was not without compelling scraps or highly-ranked fighters. The new main event pitted former champion Rashad Evans against

The new main event pitted former champion Rashad Evans against former title challenger Glover Teixeira. The Brazilian won by scintillating first round knockout, finishing Evans for only the second time in his career. And the entertaining, back-and-forth battle between “Thug” Rose Namajunas and Tecia “Tiny Tornado” Torres became the new co-main event. See Twitter’s reaction to those two pivotal bouts here:

In other main card action, Khabib Nurmagomedov made his long-awaited return to the Octagon against late replacement Darrell Horcher. After a first round that saw “The Eagle” feel Horcher out and find his rhythm, he took over in round two for a ground and pound TKO from back mount. Here’s the reaction to Nurmagomedov’s return:

“I’m in the UFC, but I have to fight Khabib.” pic.twitter.com/ogHpat2Jkn

— Brett Okamoto (@bokamotoESPN) April 17, 2016

Haha, Joe Rogan dumps a gallon of shade all over Philipe Nover by saying Horcher’s “never fought anyone even remotely UFC calibre.”

Ref. Just…you know. Walk over there, tell Nurmy to stop. It’s easy.

Why did Khabib stop fighting bears? Because they started training. They’re coming for revenge! #UFCTampa pic.twitter.com/iW3Nsiy7Kf

Also in the featured prelim, Michael “The Maverick” Chiesa locked up the biggest win of his career, submitting jiu jitsu wunderkind and #7 lightweight Beneil Dariush. Check out the reaction here:

Chiesa just smashed through his jaw with crossface like Shinya Aoki. What a sudden finish. Chiesa’s RNC, what an outta nowhere MMA finisher.

— Jordan Breen (@jordanbreen) April 16, 2016

Chiesa does it again. 2nd high level MMA grappler he submitted. Jim Miller the other. Dariush has been in 50 BJJ tourneys all top 3 finishes

— Brian Stann (@BrianStann) April 16, 2016

“He’s got it across the neck!!” – J. Rogan, confused on neck location

— Suzanne Davis (@SoozieCuzie) April 16, 2016

Chiesa says fuck your jaw, your neck, your blood flow, and your favorite mixed drink. #UFCTampa

— Tommy Toe Hold (@TommyToeHold) April 16, 2016

Michael Chiesa w/ his 5th rear-naked choke sub in UFC, tied for 2nd most all-time. Still chasin’ your boy @kennyflorian (7). Don’t front.
