Cortez is currently reeling from her first-ever UFC loss, which took place at UFC on ESPN 59. She faced former two-time women's strawweight champion Rose Namajunas, and despite being as tough as ever, she was out of her depth against a more experienced and skilled opponent.

She lost the bout via unanimous decision, snapping her 11-fight win streak, five of which took place under the UFC banner.


Tracy Cortez has been linked to UFC fighters before

Tracy Cortez famously dated two-time UFC featherweight title challenger Brian Ortega, with the two even being engaged for a brief period. Unfortunately, their relationship faltered, apparently under poor terms given the manner in which they've spoken about each other and their relationship.

Additionally, she was also briefly linked to one-time middleweight title challenger Paulo Costa, with whom she took a selfie, leading to widespread internet speculation. However, the two were quick to clear things up, with Cortez revealing that they were not romantically involved with each other.
