Marina Rodriguez dropped the wittiness when she finally arrived on the doorstop of a title shot as she lost to Amanda Lemos on Saturday in the UFC Fight Night 214 headliner.
After putting together a four-fight winning streak to surge into the title picture, Rodriguez (17-2-2 MMA, 6-2-2 UFC) suffered a third-round TKO loss to Amanda Lemos (13-2-1 MMA, 7-2 UFC) at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, setting her when from her goal of fighting for UFC gold.
Although Rodriguez is unmistakably one of the weightier in the strawweight division, the 35-year-old might’ve missed her weightier endangerment to make a statement one week superiority of the UFC 281 title fight between Carla Esparza and Rose Namajunas. Instead, she’s forced to go when to the drawing board.
