The UFC women’s strawweight champion Weili Zhang is booked to face the former champion Rose Namajunas in her next title defense at UFC 261. Zhang defended her title against Joanna Jedrzejczyk at UFC 248 in the fight that won the hearts of UFC fans around the world.

This is going to be Weili Zhang’s second title defense and many people believe Rose Namajunas is going to be the toughest test for her. Even the boxing legend Mike Tyson believes the same.

Speaking to Dana White on the recent edition of ‘Hotbox’, Mike Tyson suggests that Rose Namajunas will completely destroy Weili Zhang. The champion certainly doesn’t like it and in her latest interview with China Global Television Network Zhang fires back at Mike Tyson.
