You can still catch PXC 44 livestream if you check this link out. You need to rewind to about 1:58 (hour) or so to see Cortney Casey's fight.

Casey moved to Hawaii, Maui, fairly recently. This is Casey's strawweight debut, previously fought at flyweight. I think she walks around at mid 130s. She was 128 two-three weeks ago when she had been preparing to fight.

I've been looking for Iron Girl fight footage. I finally found a little bit of it, a "how the event went" piece in Portuguese. Only about 2:22 but there is some interest bits and pieces including Carina Damm vs. Elaine Albuquerque as well as ... ring card boys ... Hahahahaha.

Kirstin Murphey vs. Allanna Jones (Was set for Bantamweight but ended up Catchweight)



I haven't seen it yet but have heard it was a brawl. Jones missed weight due to a variety of issues, many of which were beyond her control. Two changes in weight from the original plan.

Polk is an ammy MMA fighter who will be turning pro soon.

A Sit-Down Talk With Mandy Polk: How Can You Not Be Inspired?

1. For those of our readers who don’t know a great deal about you, why don’t we start with a bio of sorts.

I grew up in a suburb of Memphis called Germantown and went to a small private school until about 7th grade. I was in gymnastics and did exceptionally academically. I was also exceptionally weird. One day I decided I’d like a social life and to pursue cheerleading, they seemed to go hand in hand, and given my gymnastics background that seemed feasible. I enrolled in a public school that had the most national championships in cheerleading at the time and I met boys for once. That was sort of a let down haha.

Thank You for that Jarl.

My pleasure. Glad I can contribute something to the thread.

For people who are interested in Rin, I want to point out that I have never really heard her use casual/vulgar Japanese. Even in the fetish videos and her post-fight interviews, she always speaks very formally/politely. This is a slightly unusual thing about her.

Apparently Tina Lahdemaki has asked for Claudia Gadelha to get tested.

Yep. Inside MMA had a video clip of her on AXS TV dealing with her desire to set a high example for the incoming Strawweight Division into the UFC of no PEDs.

I was reading her blog the other day and didn't see her bringing that topic up though. Maybe she mentioned it elsewhere. Hrm.

From Lahdemaki's blog -

Midsummer was now more than a better intervention, and I could finally get to update again a little catch up on my blog. News of the agreement struck by the UFC definitely the majority, if not all, like a fist around the corner. But that is no surprise, because I do not have myself a couple of months ago did not think astuvani even during the summer's most prestigious mixed martial arts scene in the cage. This agreement made in one fell swoop all my wishes, my dreams and my fears true, but more importantly, it forced me to take a big step as a fighter, as well as grow and be strong as a person.
