Letourneau v Calderwood at UFC Ottawa - First Women's Flyweight fight in the UFC

[CanMMAfan84]

Alright sherdoggers.. Thoughts and/or predictions?

This is a Flyweight bout, so i guess the Women will get a 125 pound division as well. My thoughts are- get rid of the Men's 125 pound division, and i am fine with a Women's 125 pound division. Decent fight.

First Women's FLW fight in UFC history. Looks like that rumor yesterday is true.

War Jojo!

 

[SirKratos]

[CanMMAfan84]

I did promise VL that I would cheer for her in her next fight.. But Jojo is also a fave..

Thicker JoJo is hot. Too bad she's gonna get smashed. I'm sad now.

 

[Sonny Qc]

WOW !!!
YES!!

Good guy Joe Silva

 

[MayhemMonkey]

WAR Jojo

thats a good fight, if Jojo wins that she could put herself in line for a shot at the belt

edit: just noticed its at flyweight..... wtf?

 

[Buff]

Tough fight... They're both gonna be battered after this one.

 

[SmilingBuddha]

Massive JoJo fan but why would she want to move up in weight? Maybe they made a mistake in the advertisement?

 

[Askafan]

Big news, at 125 Letourneau should take this

 

[Daniel4802]

Good because both belong at Flyweight as do several others.

The bout marks the UFC’s first ever women’s 125-pound fight, but is not the launch of a new division. UFC officials are looking into possibly opening a women’s flyweight division in the future, but until the time when or if such a division is permanently announced, there remain two women’s divisions (bantamweight and strawweight) and there will be no rankings set up for a 125-pound women’s class.

Not yet.

Nice

(Assuming UFC is starting a Women's FLW division in the future)

1)She would be much closer to a title shot
2) Worse competition than SW
3) No champion in the division yet

Valérie gonna win that!!

 

[EffinCraig]

Cool fight. No matter who wins I'll be bummed for the loser.

 

[THRP45]

I have Letourneau.

 

[Woliwo]

Good thing that Letourneau doesn't have to look like a corpse in the weight-in.
Think she wins this one.
