Natalia Silva Edges Rose Namajunas in Razor-Thin Decision at UFC 324

Silva earned a unanimous decision over Namajunas (29-28 across the board) after a slow start and strong finish. The No. 2-ranked contender dropped a low-activity first round but rallied with body and leg kicks, stuffing takedowns and scoring one of her own late. Namajunas’ speed and R2 control weren’t enough, as judges favored Silva’s R3 surge amid loud crowd displeasure.
