didn't catch that you sure? I heard she got a fight but thought it would be Kerri Melendez who posted she is on that card? also Jordan Young 8-0 on vs Jamal pogues 4-1 the card too

Yep!

Keri confirmed she will be in there. I assume in the prelims and young vs pogues is also confirmed plus some prospects in the prelims.

I just put the main card in the post
 
FINALLY Robbie Peralta HAS COME BACK to Cokerland

As for Kristina Williams, I’ve seen her twice and both times her opponents bled profusely. So <{JustBleed}>

If you enjoy wmma at all, this is a great fight happening outside Invicta and UFC.

Williams' pro debut was a tko over heather hardy and in her next fight she beat Emily Ducote ( just fought for bmma 125 title) .

Fighting Valerie on the same card as the 125 title fight could mean, with a win, that she will be up next for a title shot.

Williams is a tkd black belt iirc and has pretty good striking. She's worth seeing.
 
she destroyed heather hardy
 
She is fighting a seasoned vet.

Can’t remember how good she is on the ground, but she can denfinitely crack standing.

I didn't expect heather hardy to be a world beater but when i saw her opponent was 0-0 i thought for sure it was a tomatoe can. She got some nice stand up! Val is a huuge step up though.
 
Kristina has shot up the division quickly. It's not like the division is deep but she could realistically fight for the belt within her first year of being pro. Ducote was a tough fight for her 2nd fight and Val would be even tougher. Definitely a #1 contender fight.
 
Kristina’s grappling and wrestling looked improved from her last ammy bout versus Ducote, but it is worth mentioning Williams had a huge size advantage there.

Val is more competent standing than Ducote, her wrestling ability is similar, but she is not as dangerous on the ground. She’s also not going to be dramatically outsized by Williams, and she has a huge experience edge in MMA. If she fights smart and mixes her offense up well she should get it done.. but if she makes it exclusively a kickboxing fight, she could definitely lose.
 
Juan archuleta 18-1 vs Robbie Peralta 19-8
totally forgot that archuleta inked with Bellator... and it looks like they added Peralta to, FW looks so good in Bellator right now, they have tons of prospec ad already seasoned vets in that div.

I looked her up - I like her . Beat the shit out of this boxing champ .Kristina Williams mma.jpg
 
Interesting match definitely #1 contender here, I'm surprised bellator pitting them against each other Williams could use more of a record. I thought they'd have Valerie beat up ellen then fight for the title, and Williams beat up one or two others then title fight. Valerie better bring it like her fight with joanna or she will lose here. Both are better contenders than that Lara girl.

I’d really like to see a Fw tourney next year.

Bellator has a very healthy feather weight division. A lot of these fighters aren’t known though.
 
I don't think Williams is a world beater by any means but Letourneau isn't a terrible matchup for her. Kristina has length and kicks and we saw Valerie against someone similar, Calderwood, in the very first women's flyweight bout in the UFC a couple of years ago. Won't be too surprised if Warhorse wins.
