Tracy Cortez did not hesitate to seize the opportunity of a lifetime when she was offered a main event slot against Rose Namajunas in the UFC. In a last-minute effort to make weight for the fight, Cortez resorted to cutting off a fistful of her hair to hit the 126-pound mark. Despite this unorthodox method, Cortez made weight and is ready to face Namajunas in the headliner in Denver. Originally stepping in as a replacement for Maycee Barber, Cortez is determined to make the most of this significant opportunity. With an impressive record of 11-1, Cortez will look to extend her winning streak against the favored Namajunas. The stakes are high, but Cortez is prepared to give it her all in this historic showdown.
