#TUF20Finale: Carla Esparza Defeats Rose Namajunas to Become First UFC Strawweight Champion

The latest season of The Ultimate Fighter came with the tagline "a champion will be crowned" and--well, a champion was crowned. Carla Esparza met Rose Namajunas in the Octagon to battle it out for the right to be the first strawweight champion.

In the end Carla won via submission (a rear naked choke hold) in the third round:
