All signs point to them rescheduling the match. I was really hoping to see her fight this week.

She will probably fight Jessica in a few months :)

My guess for the replacement

This might not be a bad guess, I could see them making this fight as Calvillo is on a downslide, and she fought Eye not that long ago.
 
I hope she gets a replacement fight. I've been looking forward to watching her fight since her last fight.

The fact that I want to see that fight tells me that the UFC likely won't put it together.

Erin Blanchfield is 15 and Manon says she was gonna get a high ranked contender, so it's definitely not Erin.

I feel like it's too early for Manon vs. Erin, why derail one of these prospects so soon? Let them both build a little more hype if they can.

You guys might be left with blue balls. Keeping prospects away from each other in hopes for a bigger fight in the future is a gamble and it rarely works out. It's also a very artificial way to determine which fighters really are "prospects." The UFC often criticized boxing for this.

The real prospects will climb their way to the top regardless of the match ups.

It's the womens flyweight division. I'm not worried lol.

This. Plus its only good to get the rub. Like Arman became so much better after the Islam fight. He understood what elite means.

There's really no downside to prospect vs prospect matchups.

Like I'd rather them just take out the old guard in top ten like Murphy and Eye before knocking each other down

Yeah but prospect vs prospect protects people like Jessica Eye and Calvillo from having to defend their rank. It keeps undeserving fighters in the Top Ten while massively slowing down the ascent of people who have a lot of upside in their career.

I'm sorry but Joanne Wood shouldn't in the Top Ten or even the Top 15 anymore. She needs to be replaced by new blood. And she ain't the only one
