Lol, the UFC should just cut their loses and scrap this shallow ass division. They desperately want to exploit and squeeze Cyroid for every last penny tho. Hopefully this chick pulls off the upset. Im sure the UFC would love to have this chick be the face of WMMA... lol

The division...In fact even the thought of this division is pure bullshit.

There are literally ZERO active fighters in the division. And no champion.

Shut this shit show down...It's fuckin embarrassing.
 
It's been cursed since the day Cyborg beat Gina Carano. They should just shut down the division but won't because they want to stop Cyborg from going to Bellator not to mention scrapping the division would mean the UFC would have to actually admit it made a mistake.

Thing is, Cyborg is a star- easy to market, fan-accessible style, finishes. So either they keep giving her one offs in which blown up bantamweights get thrown to the wolves or they try to create a division and get several actual 45ers to join up and vie for the belt.

Obviously we are in the midst of a real shit show- first with GDR being stripped of the title because of a refusal to fight Cyborg and now Meg Anderson not being able to compete.

UFC faces a difficulty whether you have a women's featherweight division or not. Not many people will be chomping at the bit to fight Cyborg.

The problem is that most the most of the decent 145lb fighters are in Bellator. The 145lb division would still be thin if only one promotion had the division but with it split between two major promotions and Invicta it simply isn't going to work.

Fighting blown up up 135lb fighters in one off is only going to work for so long before she runs out of decent opponents willing to come up and fight her.

They either keep giving her one offs in which blown up bantamweights get thrown to the wolves or they create a division where blown up bantamweights get thrown to the wolves.

Of the five fighters to have been signed to the division at different points, only 2 are legit FWs: Meeeegan and Cyborg. The other three including the former champ De Randamie, former contender Holly Holm, and number one contender Tonya Evinger are all bantamweights.
 
they should of never created 135lb for women.

105lb womens division

120lb women's division

130lb women's divison

145lb women division

boom that is all you need.

Like I said fighting 135lb fighters coming up to 145 is only going to work for so long until she simply runs out of opponents willing to come up to that weight. Then even if the UFC starts signing 145lb fighters how many are actually committed to staying in the division? My guess for every three 145lb fighters they sign within a year 2 of them will be at 135. Unless the UFC can find between 20 an 30 of 6"0 Amazons like Megan.
 
Once again, people are trying to call it a division when there are not enough fighters to even form a ranked 15. Please don't.
 
Just give Cyborg the fucking belt and be done with it.

Why a 10lbs jump between 120 and 130 while a 15 lbs jump between 105/120 and 130/145? Makes no sense at all.

If there's larger jump somewhere, it should be between the 2 heaviest divisions.
 
Lol. That recent video of cyborg boxing sparring that olympic chick is scarying everyone.
 
This whole division seems like a bad joke.
First titlefight between 2 bantamweights, 2nd titlefight between a featherweight and yet another bantamweight.
They can't even match 2 featherweights to fight for the title.
And yes I know Anderson is an actual featherweight and had to pull but it's still a joke they can't get another real featherweight to fight for an UFC title.

There is really small pond with fit/sport ladies that weigh 170 lbs

haha. Well said.
 
It's not a division. Dana only created the belt so Cyborg would shut the fuck up, and that didn't even work.

They should have washed their hands of cyborg years ago
 
Hopefully this chick pulls off the upset.

She won't. Evinger could fight at 125 if she were the least bit disciplined. She won't make it out of the first round with a 170lb 'roid monster.

It's just another Cyborg fight that belongs in Rizin.
