The UFC announced on UFC tonight that Rose Namajunas vs Nina Ansaroff has been added to UFC 187 May 23 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Rose did very well in the TUF 20 house. But she seemed way too nervous in her fight against Carla Esparza on the TUF finale for the Women's Strawweight Championship. She's only 22 years old so she still has potential. But she probably needs a win just for her own confidence. Nina was thinking about retirement when the UFC called. She didn't look very good losing to Juliana Lima in November. In fact, neither fighter looked good. So Nina may need to at least look better even in losing. And Rose should be the favourite.
