Former two-time UFC strawweight champion Namajunas (12-6, fighting out of Denver, Colo.) aims to remain undefeated in 2024 and break into the flyweight Top 5.

She now plans on being the first person to stop Barber with a statement performance.

Dober (27-13 1NC, fighting out of Denver, Colo.) intends to secure a record-breaking knockout for his first UFC fight in his home city.
