2. Rose Namajunas
Despite always carrying an inherent vulnerability, ‘Thug Rose’ is a superb talent, and arguably technically the most complete fighter on this list. Her takedown and submission game is slick, while she managed to outstrike twice one of the greatest Muay Thai fighters in all of MMA.
The way she knocked out Joanna Jedrzejczyk was breathtaking. However, her unanimous decision win was even more impressive because it showed it wasn’t just a lucky break and she could hang with the best. Until she got slammed on her head by Jessica Andrade, she was putting on the performance of her career. But those are the breaks in MMA.
