He wanted to move strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk's title defense against Valerie Letourneau, which had been set for UFC 195, to Melbourne as the co-main to Rousey-Holm, but it is too soon for Letourneau to be ready.

Looks like this was the plan before Rousey vs. Holm moved to UFC 193.

I'm thinking this must be another screw up by Iole. When was Letourneau scheduled to fight Jedrzejczyk? He must have meant Gadelha.

Claudia might not be ready to fight in January, apparently Valerie is UFC next choice for tilte fight.

This.
UFC wanted to hold women main and co-main event.
Now Rousey vs. Holm was moved, they may push back Jedrzejczyk's title defense and wait for Gadelha's recovery.

make Joanna vs. PVZ, she will be 3-0 soon

Maybe.

Remember that Gadelha is injured so it's unclear when she'll be able to return to action. The UFC didn't actually officially announce JoJed's opponent (at least that I recall) so while Gadelha may be preferred, she may not be available.

If Letourneau isn't ready I hope that they move JoJed to 193 and find someone who can make the schedule. It really makes sense for her to be co-main with Rousey if they are looking to build JoJed's profile and the 115 division.

I feel like UFC 193 is going to get a thorough revamp now that Rousey is on it. Dana isn't going to want the biggest gate and PPV ever to be a dog shit card full of Aussies...

Giver her jojo. A brutal ko will get her some attention.

 

[SpiderCrawl]

[curryjunkie]

NYE card can be :

Werdum vs Cain 2
Silly Dilly vs Cruz
Fedor vs AA/Mir winner

And considering they love doing the FOX card the week before SB weekend, give us Condit vs Lawler live and free on FOX in January.

SB Weekend :

DC/Gus winner vs Shad/Bader winner or a returning Bones Jones.
JJ vs Claudia

kinda ironic...it would seem to be,Moroz,after derailing a Jojo/Joanna title scrap in Germany...was in fact in their thoughts to fight for the strap,only for her to lose.

Valerie can barely make 116 without looking like she's dying.

She has a big chance of missing weight. That would've killed 193

 

[bonghead420]

make Joanna vs. PVZ, she will be 3-0 soon

They wont be making that fight for a long time.

 

[NoSmilez]

Valerie is too slow to fight, Jo champion

 

[mmafan559]

Whatever gets Joanna in the cage for some more beautiful destruction is fine by me.

 

[llama de lrey]

Who cares...

 

[JKS]

make Joanna vs. PVZ, she will be 3-0 soon

Oh god no, Paige in no way is ready for that. It would be brutal to watch

 

[vkram]

Letourneau struggled to make 116, gonna be harder to drop that extra pound

 

[Jblizzle]

Who cares...

You do
