Jessica Andrade scored an insane slam knockout to become the new strawweight champion at UFC 237. On Twitter, pro fighters reacted to the stunning ending.
The strawweight division has a new champion.
In an insane finish, Jessica Andrade came back from a tough first round, in which Rose Namajunas picked her apart, to score a slam knockout after throwing ‘Thug Rose’ to the mat with all her might early into the second at UFC 237’s main event. On Twitter, pro fighters lost their minds over the ending.
I think Rose must’ve started a cult, her and her corner all have the same outfit and haircuts. #UFC237

It’s pretty simple. @rosenamajunas is looking like a ninja assassin right now. Andrade started to claw back but that is some clean technique from Rose.

— Nick Newell (@NotoriousNewell) May 12, 2019
Rose’s footwork is looking reminiscent of Cody Garbrandt vs Cruz #levels #ufc237
