Former two-time UFC women's strawweight champion Rose Namajunas would appear to have her first assignment of 2025 in the calendar.
Namajunas (13-7) has gone 2-2 since moving up to flyweight following a lackluster end to her second reign at 115 pounds opposite Carla Esparza in 2022.
While a debut defeat to Manon Fiorot stalled her plans for two-division glory, "Thug Rose" rose the ranks in her new weight class by outpointing Amanda Ribas and Tracy Cortez.
But after Erin Blanchfield stalled the veteran's plans for a perfect 3-0 year in 2024 and surge into title contention, Namajunas must defend her ranking next time out.
The 32-year-old Wisconsin will return at the UFC Fight Night expected for Atlanta on June 14, where a showdown with the #12-ranked Miranda Maverick (15-5) awaits.
The news, which was first reported by @realkevink on X, was confirmed by Maverick in a post on Instagram.
