‘Tractor’ Jessica Andrade reveals strategy to beat Rose Namajunas at UFC 237

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil — Jessica Andrade doesn’t mind disclosing her game plan for her upcoming bout against UFC strawweight champion Rose Namajunas at UFC 237, scheduled for May 11 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

“Bate Estaca”, who earned another shot at UFC gold after scoring big wins over Claudia Gadelha, Tecia Torres and Karolina Kowalkiewicz in a 12-month span, spoke with reporters during a media day recently in Rio de Janeiro and analyzed Namajunas’ game.

Andrade has only lost one of seven bouts since moving down to 115 pounds, the lone defeat coming when she challenged Joanna Jedrzejczyk for the title at UFC 211.
