UFC on ESPN 53 took place Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, and the headliner saw an ex-champion return to form. Rose Namajunas (12-6 MMA, 10-5 UFC) snapped her two-fight losing skid with a unanimous decision win over Amanda Ribas (12-5 MMA, 7-4 UFC) in their women’s flyweight bout, but that wasn’t the result that captured the most headlines.
