Marina Rodriguez still aiming to fight for UFC strawweight title: ‘That’s why we’re here’

LA VEGAS – Despite being on her worst career run, Marina Rodriguez is not ready to forget about the UFC title.

The strawweight fighter is determined to break her two-fight losing streak at Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 228 and make another run for the belt. Rodriguez (16-3-2 MMA, 6-3-2 UFC) takes on former Invicta FC champion Michelle Waterson-Gomez (18-11 MMA, 6-7 UFC) in a rematch on the main card of the event.

Rodriguez, 36, feels another win against Waterson-Gomez could get her back in title contention.
