The Ultimate Fighting Championship returns to the Apex Facility in Las Vegas for a second consecutive week with UFC on ESPN 53. The event will be headlined by multi-divisional contender Amanda Ribas going up against former two-time strawweight champion Rose Namajunas.

Ribas is determined to seize the opportunity of her maiden main event and deliver a resounding statement. The Brazilian boasts a commendable resume adorned with remarkable triumphs over the likes of Viviane Araujo and Mackenzie Dern. She has oscillated between triumphs and defeats across seven preceding bouts and will look forward to rupturing this cyclic pattern with a victory over Namajunas.
