Rose Namajunas

Rose Namajunas just seems like a fragile girl. In fact, the elegant physique does not prevent her to remain a fighter of mixed martial arts, a champion of UDC and the owner of the nickname Thug Rose (Murder Rose).

Rose Gertrude Namajunas was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on June 29, 1992, to Lithuanians. The girl's childhood was difficult: her father suffered from schizophrenia, and Rose herself was repeatedly sexually harassed.

Even before school Namayunas began to engage in martial arts: at the age of 5 she became interested in taekwondo, and at 9 she earned a youthful black belt. Later the girl mastered karate and jiu-jitsu.

In mixed martial arts and kickboxing she came at the age of 16, when she was in high school. Rose was coached by Jeffrey Duke Rufus. Namajunas made her debut in amateur MMA in 2010. During the period of biography, she trained with Greg Nelson at the Academy of Martial Arts of Minnesota. She had no defeats during this period, the athlete turned into professionals with 4 victories: 2 - by TKO and 2 - by the referee's decision, and all fights ended in the 1st round.

The girl's first professional fight was against Emily Kagan on January 5, 2013 as part of Invicta FC 4: Esparza vs. Hyatt. Rose won in the 3rd round with a suffocating reception. The second time as a professional Namajunas fought in April with Katina Catron. The scrum earned Rose another victory, this time in the 12th second of the 1st five-minute. But against the undefeated Tiscia Torres girl did not resist and on July 13, 2013 lost on unanimous decision of the judges.

In December 2013, Rose signed with the UFC to participate in the 20th season of The Ultimate Fighter. It became the 1st women's tournament in the history of the organization in its weight category. First Namajunas defeated Alex Chambers, in the quarterfinals in the 2nd round defeated Joan Calderwood, and in the semifinals, after a fight with Randa Marcos, won the right to compete for the title.

In 2014, as part of "The Ultimate Fighter: A Champion Will Be Crowned Finale", Rose entered the ring against Carla Esparza in an attempt to challenge the title. It did not work - the opponent defeated Namajunas in the 3rd round. However, the loss in the final did not prevent the girl to receive the results as a reward for the fight with Joan Calderwood 2 prizes of $25,000.

After that, it was announced that Rose would fight Nina Ansarov on May 23, 2015. However, the rival a few hours before the fight fell ill, and the battle was canceled. Later there were reports that perhaps the girls will meet in the ring, but in a few months.

On October 3, Namajunas met Angela Hill and won, and on December 10, she fought Paige Vansant at UFC Fight Night 80, replacing Joan Calderwood, who was unable to fight due to injury. During the contest, Rose quickly took a dominant position, but the fight lasted all 5 rounds; in the last Namajunas won by a sub-supermish.

In 2016, she again came out against Tiscia Torres, and the rematch was more successful than the first fight - by unanimous decision of the judges the victory was awarded to Rose. The next opponent was Michelle Waterson. Rose also overcame her, and quickly - in the second five-minute fight.

On November 4, Rose's new fight took place. This time the opponent was the world champion in the minimum weight Joanna Jedrzejczyk, and, according to all calculations, the victory was not counted on. However, Namajunas surprised MMA fans by winning the fight in the 1st round by knockout. To defend the title, Rose again met her defeated opponent on April 7, 2018, and proved her superiority for the second time.

Rose doesn't have a husband or children yet, but she's fine with her personal life. Namajunas meets Pat Berry, a UFC heavyweight champion. The girl says that she liked the guy at once, but for a long time they did not even talk. Then the fighters sparred, and Pat missed a blow to Namajunas in the face. With a laugh, Rose says that, apparently, that's when he fell in love with her.

The girl admits that her father's illness, violence and family problems had a great impact on her. Therefore, she has repeatedly stated that people should not hide their problems and pretend that everything is normal.

Namajunas is proud of its Lithuanian roots, loves nature and national Lithuanian cuisine, emphasizing its striking contrast with American fast food.

Now fans of the girl can follow her life in the Instagram account. There, Rose posts photos from training, fighting and everyday life. The girl has a beautiful figure (at the height of 165 cm her weight is 52 kg) and is not shy of her body. On the internet you can easily find her photos in a swimsuit, and in 2017 the athlete starred nude for the magazine "Women's Health".

After two consecutive victories over Jedrzejczyk Rose decided to take a break and devote some time to herself - fights for the title exhausted the girl. However, in November 2018, Namajunas announced that she returned to training and started planning the next fight.

As the first opponent after the break, the athlete named Jessica Andrade and said that she does not see any other rivals except her.
