Rose Namajunas has gone just 2-2 since making the move up to 125 pounds but some mixed results aren't making her contemplate a switch back to her old stomping grounds at strawweight. Ahead of her co-main event fight against Miranda Maverick at UFC Atlanta on Saturday, Namajunas addressed what it would take for her to actually consider a move back to 115 pounds, her opinion on current strawweight champion Zhang Weili moving up to flyweight to challenge Valentina Shevchenko and her expectatiosn for the highly antipated showdown between new champion Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunes.
