It is reported that R. Namajun, 28, will compete with the reigning champion of the Straw weight class (48-52 kg), Zhang Weili of China.
The fight will take place at the UFC 261 event on April 24.
The 31-year-old Chinese has lost his entire career on the mixed martial arts (MMA) scene just once, in his first fight in 2013.
Still, he has beaten his rivals 21 times in a row since then, including five fights in the UFC ring.
Back in 2019. In August, Zh.Weili tied then-champion Jessica Andrade in just 42 seconds and tightened her belt.
In 2020, the Chinese defended the belt against the Polish Joanna Jedrzejczyk.

Namajun, meanwhile, last entered the UFC ring in 2020 in July, when he gave up Andrade for defeat a year earlier in the title match. It is true that J. Anddrade had already lost the champion title at that time, so R. Namajun was unable to regain the belt.
J. Anddrade will also appear at the UFC 261 event, who will attempt to beat current Kyrgyz champion Valentin Shevchenko in the flyweight fight (53-57kg).
