Signings/Scouting WMMA Discussion #29

[Necrocrawler]

She might be first daughter of UFC fighter. There were father and son before - Couture and Gilbert and Elijah Smith.

There were a girl on TUF who was the daughter of a UFC veteran.
Still... It was on TUF and she lost on the house prelims.
Idk her name though.

Dern on Weili:
"I would love to fight Weili, but not right now," Dern said. "I'm not there yet. I saw her fight Tatiana … I feel like I could do good with Weili compared to how Tatiana did with her, but on a personal level, I'm not ready for Weili right now. But if I were to fight Virna and get the belt, and Weili comes back down, I think that would be enough time to (be ready)."

Mackenzie Dern keeps it real about UFC champ Zhang Weili: 'I'm not there yet'

Mackenzie Dern has heard the rumblings about the strawweight champion, and she's very much interested in a decision soon.

Refreshingly honest.

Refreshingly honest.

Does that mean that Weili moving up is already confirmed?

 

[Girubgez]

Also



wondering if Grasso has decided to do some cross camps after recent fiascos. Anyway, training with Weili is gonna be good experience.

Man, what a slow weekend for WMMA

 

[werepig]

There were a girl on TUF who was the daughter of a UFC veteran.
Still... It was on TUF and she lost on the house prelims.
Idk her name though.

for the life of me i cannot figure out who is this. the closest i can think of is maia stevenson, who is/was married to joe "daddy" stevenson

 

[leto1776]

Jessica Penne has a new job. Angela Hill had the best reply

 

[WillyWarminski]

Is Rena still fighting? My Japanese sweetheart. She has tapered off and nothing for a year.

 

[LoneLynx]

Is this the end of the road of One Championship?

Say it ain't so

 

[Necrocrawler]

It was Revelina Berto, who lost to Jessica Razoczy at the house prelims. She's the son of Dieusel Berto, who fought at UFC 10

now that's a deep cut!

 

[Eater of Souls]

Does that mean that Weili moving up is already confirmed?

Not my intent, sorry. Just that Dern needed some more time to develop.

 

[Shelter]

Paulina Wisniewska runs through Jessica Cunha at PFL Europe. I hope they keep her busy because she could be a fun future challenger for Ditcheva

Women’s flyweight is so deep. There are quite a few really good prospects coming up, Paulina is definitely one of them.

Alice *Pereira (5-0) vs Montserrat Rendon (6-1) Noche UFC Sept 13th
I’ve never seen Alice fight. Surprising to see someone get signed straight to UFC, but it’s bantamweight, so let’s go/


Not to be confused with Aline Pereira, the sister of Poatan

iirc, rendon is a bit slow but has nice hands, possibly from a boxing background.

with this signing and kennedy freeman recently, is ufc finally committing to bulking up women's bantamweight?

if so, who else do they need to sign? show us what ya got, thread!

my pick would probably be hope chase - she's 26 and has already fought in both invicta and LFA. never mind the 4-3 record, just go watch tape
