Canadian Randa Markos battles Rose Namajunas in TUF 20 semi-finals
December 4, 2014
PrintWith the quarter final matchup’s complete, four female fighters will compete in the semi-finals of the Ultimate Fighter 20.
Canadian Randa Markos is the only Canadian in the house and has managed to find success by making it to the semi-finals with ease. Her next opponent is highly talented Rose Namajunas.
The fight will air next week (Wed., December 10, 2014) on Sportsnet in Canada and will feature the other semi-final bout between Carla Esparza and Jessica Penne.
Esparza, the #1 seed will look to prove why she is number one by defeating her friend Jessica Penne. If you all have been following TUF 20, you already know there is “bad blood” between Randa Markos and Carla Esparza.
Markos defeated Esparza’s good friend Felice Herrig, and some “war of words” were exchanged between the two following the bout. Markos successfully defeated Tecia Torres and Felice Herring to advance to the semi-finals. Her bout with Namajunas will most certainly be one of the most anticipated fights of the season.
The TUF 20 finale takes place at The Pearl at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. Good luck to our Canadian superstar Randa Markos in the semi-finals, as she has a chance to bring gold back to Canadian soil!
