Well its a brand new division in the ufc but it's not a brand new division.It's a brand new division, nobody has 'earned' or 'deserves' it (other than herself).Therefore it matters not. Her point is moot.
In fact the entire top 15 in the ufc rankings have fought at 125, includes one invicta champion, an invicta title contender. The fighters ranked two and three in the world at 125 prior to tuf..
So its not really new.. And the vast majority of the fighters have fought multiple times at 125 in other orgs
The exceptions being Davis and carmouche who fought the other night and Lauren murphy
So yes, there are fighters who have earned at least being in contention for the title. Andrea Lee when she is cleared to fight (legacy 125 champion), Jennifer Maia (invicta 125 champion) when she is brought over..
Mma does exist outside the ufc you know
