Holy Shit!!!!

 

[Black9]

I can't be the only one that doesn't get this one right?
There's no fighters in the female 145 division..

 

[TorontoTO]

Genuinely shocked, I imagine this is to get back at PFL by taking one of their more popular fighters.

Also BW?!?!?! No idea how that goes

Damn you're fast.



Edit - Would like to add that Holly Holm will be 42.5 years old by UFC300. She's 1-2 in the last 3 years. This is a gimmie fight for a huge debut at UFC300 that will be the face of WMMA for the next few years at least.

Yay? I don't know how Harrison cuts to BW. And both of them lost recently. This fight would have been a lot bigger 2 years ago.

Nice! Don't love the matchup against an old Holly....but maybe I do.....she should woman handle her really.

Guess this means we never see Cyborg Harrison fight.

Fixed the OP for you @Scafatl

I mean, 145? Holly is outta her prime, is this really a big fight? Kayla also lost recently at wsof iirc

Aspinall revealing ufc offered him stipe tells me all i need to know, this card is not gonna be what we expected at all,sadly.

It's good as a standalone fight but yeah. Unless UFC somehow stumbled across a couple dozen WFWs then I don't think this is anything other than a good standalone fight

No one actually watched the video it seems, he said she is fighting at BW

Amanda Nunes was teasing a return maybe this is a title eliminator type fight?

Holly holm fighting on ufc 300


dana should’ve signed Brock’s daughter and had her fight Kayla

 

[flektarn]

No way in hell she can make BW.

 

[OldBoy91]

Kinda figured she was going to the UFC when Ariel interviewed her right after the PFL/Bellator merger news happened.

He asked her how excited she was to fight Cyborg and for her future with the promotion, and she gave a super wishy washy "we'll see what happens" kind of response.

So this doesn't surprise me at all, but it still makes no sense. She fights at 155 no?

The UFC signing women without a division to support them hasn't paid off on the past. Can't see it paying off here either.
