Women’s Featherweight, time to go?

It will be interesting to see how the PFL uses Kayla this year since she is still signed to the PFL but opted out of the PFL season. I assume she will just fight once or twice on a PPV card but who is gonna be her opponent?

Also, will Claressa Shields be back in MMA this year? I hope so but she is absolutely not ready for a fight against Kayla. If she does come back it would be another PPV fight but she needs a shittier opponent than Kayla.

Shields will unlikely ever fight mma again after getting embarrassed by a legit nobody.

Pacheco had kind of a lackluster fight in her last outing at 145. After bulking up to beat Kayla at 155 she wasn't the same fighter at 145. She's still good, hopefully next time will be better.

I think Budd is just really tough. Pacheco is still dangerous and her frame is better suited to 145 IMO.

she lost a split decision in her second pro fight but she's still my girl

Can that female tree trunk even make 145? I thought it was tough for her to make 155? I don't see the point either considering she'd be doing just what she's already doing and fighting scrubs outside of a Nunes fight.

Yeah she made it for a one off fight in Invicta.

A few facts about this division.

-26 total fights in approximately 6 years.
-Approximately 4 fights a year.
-7 total title fights all involving fighters that primarily fight at 135 or have since retired/changed promotions.
-Belt last defended 2 years ago with no obvious fight on the horizon.
-Currently only 3 fighters that primarily compete at this weight class.
Norma Dumont (3-2)
Zarah Fairn (0-3)
Danyelle Wolf (0-1)

So what do we think? Time to fold this division?

Good point. Let's shut down all WMMA Divisions to be on the safe side.

I think at this point in their careers Pacheco would fuck Nunes up and make it look easy.

Difference of opinion? This is the reason I'd really like to see this fight. She's really the best by far 145ler out there for Nunes to fight.
