Marloes Coenen vs Cristiane Justino

At Invicta FC 6 on July 13th, 2013 at the Ameristar Casino Hotel in Kansas City, Missouri, Marloes Coenen (21-5-0) will be taking on Cristiane Justino (11-1-0) who was of course formerly known as Cris "Cyborg" Santos.
This match is the main event and will be a rematch.
The two last fought back at Strikeforce - Miami on January 30th, 2010.

To me this match is kind of a deal breaker for Cris.
If she wins, it proves that it wasn't steroids but skill that gave her all of those victories.
But even if she loses, it may just mean that Marloes was better that day.
Ms. Coenen is by no means a slouch.

Who do I think will win?
Please...if you look back at this blog you will see I cannot call a fight to save my life!
I'll just have to wait and see like everyone else.
 

The card will also feature almost every major female MMA fighter around that hasn't been snatched up by the UFC (it still feels funny typing that) including...
Veronica Rothenhausler, Rose Namajunas, Lauren Taylor, Jessica Penne, Bec Hyatt, Leslie Smith, Julia Budd and many more.

Invicta FC 5: Penne vs. Waterson

On April 5th, 2013 at the Ameristar Casino Kansas City in Kansas City, Missouri they held Invicta FC 5: Penne vs. Waterson.
This was notable for several reasons....

One, we had the return of Michelle Waterson "The Karate Hottie" (11-3) after a six month layoff and she defeated Jessica Penne (10-2).
Both ladies are very popular on this blog with good reason.
They are both lovely AND skilled.
Michelle won via Submission (Armbar) in 2:31 of the 4th round.

Also we had the return of  Cristiane Justino (11-1), who you may know better as Cris "Cyborg" Santos.
Cris defeated Fiona Muxlow (6-3) in 3:46 of the first round via TKO.

There were a ton of other events on the card as well....

Barb Honchak defeated Vanessa Porto

Female MMA - The UFC Women's Bantamweight Roster

I never thought I would be doing this, but here is the UFC WOMEN'S roster!
Yeah, the place where female mma would never have a home according to Dana White now has a home.
I have ragged him about this but actually I think maybe I should change my attitude and be grateful that he changed his mind.
It takes a big man to admit he was wrong you know?

Anyway, here is the UFC Women's Bantamweight Roster (so far....)

Ronda Rousey (7-0)
Liz Carmouche (8-3)
Germaine de Randamie (3-2)
Alexis Davis (13-5)

Sara McMann (6-0)
Amanda Nunes (7-3)
Miesha Tate (13-3)

These are all the women that I definitely know are there, not rumors.
