MMA DieHards Radio: Rose Namajuanas, Tara LaRosa, Chad Elliot

MMA DieHards Radio welcomes back a pair of WMMA combatants and a gentleman who is becoming a regular as of late.

Hosts Jason Kelly (Twitter @JayMMADieHards) and Joe Rizzo (@rearnakedchoke) are joined by UFC strawweight Rose Namajunas (@rosenamajunas), WMMA pioneer Tara LaRosa (@TaraLaRosa) and Lights Out Fight Management owner Chad Elliot.

Howard is on a three-fight win streak, most recently defeating TUF 17 finalist Uriah Hall via split decision at "UFC Fight night: Rua vs. Sonnen."  "Doomsday" meets Siyar Bahadurzada at UFC 168 on Dec. 28 in Las Vegas.

Namajunas is one of eleven women selected to compete on TUF 20 and join the UFC's latest addition to to their divisions, the women's 115-pound weight class.  Namajunas, along with the other 10 females, were adopted from Invicta, the world's premier WMMA league.

LaRosa, a fighter who has been putting work in for years, recently got inducted into the New Jersey Martial Arts Hall of Fame.  We'll discuss her body of work and what it means to achieve such an honor.  And with the unfiltered LaRosa, we never know what other topics we'll cover.

Elliot (@FTFAcademy), owner of the Fear the Fighter Training Academy and M and A Sports Media, will join Kelly at the beginning of the show to share some information on functions the academy has coming up.
