Rachael Ostovich - Women Fighters

Female MMA fighter Rachael Ostovich likes to dress up like Wonder Woman and fight people.
No...really.
She is five foot three, 126 pounds and has a 4-3-0 MMA record.

Back to the Wonder Woman thing...
I have to give her props because she cares enough to do a photo shoot pose imitating one of my favorite WW pics ever, done by Alex Ross.

Though she doesnt always dress up like Wondy....

Alexa Grasso - Women MMA Fighters

Alexa Grasso is cute.
Yeah I know she is a grown woman and a MMA fighter with an 8-0-0 record.
And 4 of those 8 wins were knockouts.

But I mean seriously...look at how cute she is.
She is Mary-Louise Parker cute and to me that is pretty damn cute.

Anyway, Alexa was born on August 9, 1993 in Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.
She is a strawweight that fights for the UFC.
Alexa is 5 foot 5 and weighs 115 pounds.

And she's cute.

Women's MMA at UFC 202 - Diaz vs. McGregor 2

At UFC 202 - Diaz vs. McGregor 2, there were two women's MMA fights.

Raquel "Rocky" Pennington (8-5-0) defeated Elizabeth Phillips (5-4-0) by Decision (Unanimous).

Cortney 'Cast Iron' Casey (6-3-0) defeated Randa Markos (6-4-0) in the first round via an armbar submission.

Andrea Lee - MMA Fighter

Female MMA fighter Andrea Lee was born on February 11, 1989 in Atlanta, Texas.
She currently fights for Invicta FC in the Flyweight division.
But at the moment, she is on a nine month suspension.

The Nevada State Athletic Commission gave her the nine month suspension after she tested positive for diuretics after a submission loss to Sarah D’Alelio at Invicta FC 16 on Mrach 11th, 2016.
Nine months is not bad since the standard suspension for drug violations is two years.
But the suspension is retroactive to the date of FC 16 which means she'll be eligible to fight again on December 11th, 2016.

Her current MMA record is 4-2-0.

Aleksandra Albu - MMA Fighter

Alexandra "Stitch" Albu is a Strawweight UFC fighter from Vulcănești, Gagauzia, Moldova.
She is five foot two, 115 pounds and is represented by Red Fury Fight Team.
Alexandra has only had two Pro fights, but she won them both.
She is currently 2-0-0 and so far she is not ranked in the Unified Women’s Pro MMA Rankings.
But I did a write up on Ronda Rousey long before she was ranked too...and you see what happened with her.

Angela Lee - MMA Fighter

This is Singaporean MMA fighter, Angela Lee.
Angela is fair new to the MMA scene but so far she is 5-0-0 and those fights were pretty impressive.
Ronda Rousey impressive actually.

Her longest pro fight has been 2 minutes.
And all 5 were won with submissions.

And before that, her 3 amateur fights all were under 1 minute. 

Expect big things out of Angela "Unstoppable" Lee.

Miesha Tate defeats Holly Holm at UFC 196

I gave up a long time ago and I really have no idea why I even try now.
Ronda Rousey crushed Miesha Tate every time they fought.
Then Holly Holm beat Ronda Rousey.
So Holly should have whipped Miesha easily.
Right?
Wrong.
Miesha got a fifth round submission victory with a rear naked choke.
Of course she had to because Holly was leading in scoring with the judges.
So now Ronda says that she is all ready to get back to training because she knows she can beat Miesha and get the belt back.

Paige VanZant - MMA Women

Five foot four, 115 pound, twenty one year old beauty Paige "12 Gauge" VanZant is one of the up and coming female MMA fighters in the world today. She's not only a cage fighter but a model as well.
And she's also a dancer, former cheerleader, ring girl and she plans to become a gourmet chef.
Sounds like she has a plan doesn’t it?

Paige started out in martial arts taking classes with her dad because he wanted her to learn and she had been on the receiving end of some bullying in school, so Paige gave it a shot. She became a ring girl but wanted closer to the action and finally got her wish, training first at the House of Ryu Gym in Las Vegas, and then with Team Alpha Male.

Paige had her first fight on June 30th, 2012 against Jordan Nicole Gaza at UWF - Tournament of Warriors Finale. She won that fight via Split Decision.

Her next fight was a Unanimous Decision win over Amber Stautzenberger at PFS - Premier Fight Series 2 on September 22nd, 2012.

Paige's first loss came at the hands of Tecia Torres on January 5th, 2013 at Invicta FC 4 - Esparza vs. Hyatt via a Unanimous Decision.

Her last fight was a win over Alex Chambers at UFC 191 - Johnson vs. Dodson 2 on September 5th, 2015 via Submission (Armbar)

Given time, I think Paige may be right up there with the big names in just a little while. The difference in her between her third and fourth fight was pretty incredible.

Megan Anderson - MMA Women

Female MMA fighter Megan Anderson is from the Gold Coast, Queensland, Austrailia.
Tapology.com has her listed as five foot eleven, but Sherdog has her listed as five foot seven.
So...
Anyway, she is ranked number 7 in Featherweights (136-145 pounds) in the May 2015 Unified Women’s MMA Rankings.
Her MMA record stands at 4-1-0 and she is currently on a four win streak.

MMA - Invicta FC 7: Honchak vs. Smith

Last night was Invicta FC 7: Honchak vs. Smith at the United States Ameristar Casino Hotel in Kansas City, Missouri.

There was a ton of good fights and to quickly recap....
Barb Honchak defeated Leslie Smith
Lauren Murphy beat Miriam Nakamoto
Tecia Torres won over Felice Herrig
Joanne Calderwood defeated Katja Kankaanpää
Julia Budd beat Charmaine Tweet
Vanessa Porto defeated Zoila Frausto Gurgel
Tonya Evinger beat Sarah D'Alelio
Nina Ansaroff won over Munah Holland

The Barb Honchak vs. Leslie Smith fight was awarded "Fight of the Night" and Nina Ansaroff earned "Knockout of the Night" in her victory over Munah Holland.
And the bout that won "Knockout of the Night" was on the Preliminary Card.
I imagine that Nina "The Strina" Ansaroff will be moving up in the rankings....

Invicta FC 6 - Female MMA

In the last post I said that on July 13, 2013 at Invicta FC 6, Marloes "Rumina" Coenen will take on Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino for the first Invicta FC Featherweight Championship.
But that's just scratching the surface of what will be going on at FC 6.
There will be 13 matches with some of the best in female mixed martial arts in the world, including four of the top ranked featherweight female MMA fighters.

Marloes Coenen vs. Cristiane Santos
Claudia Gadelha vs. Ayaka Hamasaki            
Sarah D'Alelio vs. Lauren Taylor            
Leslie Smith vs. Jennifer Maia   
Jessica Penne vs. Nicdali Rivera-Calanoc            
Joanne Calderwood vs.TBA.                
Ediane Gomes vs. Julia Budd
Bec Hyatt     vs. Mizuki Inoue                
Miriam Nakamoto vs. Duda Yankovich            
Tecia Torres vs. Rose Namajunas            
Ashley Cummins vs. Emily Kagan    
Mollie Estes vs.Veronica Rothenhausler            
Cassie Robb vs. Livia Von Plettenberg

So it looks like on July 14th I will be changing a lot of win-loss records on blogs.....

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
Sarah Kaufman defeated Leslie Smith
Jennifer Maia  defeated Zoila Frausto Gurgel
Lauren Taylor defeated Kaitlin Young
Julia Budd defeated Mollie Estes
Bec Hyatt defeated Jasminka Cive
Simona Soukupova defeated Cassie Rodish
Miriam Nakamoto defeated Jessamyn Duke
Katja Kankaanpää defeated Juliana Carneiro Lima
Rose Namajunas defeated Kathina Catron
Alex Chambers defeated Jodie Esquibel

Coming up at Invicta FC 6...Marlos Coenen will be taking on "Cyborg" to crown the first Invicta FC Featherweight Champion.
That will take place in July of this year.

Dana White, Ronda Rousey and the UFC

Dana White, Ronda Rousey and the UFC 

Well either UFC President Dana White had a huge change of mind...or he's getting ready to get into politics!
In a flip-flop that would make any candidate envious, Dana told Sports Illustrated that a female division of the UFC IS going to happen...mainly because of Ronda Rousey.
Dana, who has sworn up and down that women would NEVER fight in the UFC (although he had NO problem with using Gina Carano to promote things) now says that "It's absolutely going to happen,".
Although he does add that it "could happen tomorrow, it could happen a year from now."

Uh-huh.....

Julia "The Jewel" Budd

Looking make over the entries here I just noticed that I have not done a write up on female MMA fighter Julia Budd.
Considering that she was ranked eighth last month in the top female MMA fighters (Featherweights) by MMARising...I guess I had better mention her huh?

 Julia "The Jewel" Budd was born in Port Moody, British Columbia on July 4th, 1983.
She has a current record of 3-2-0.
Of course 3-2-0 may not sound that impressive but you have to remember that her two losses were to Amanda Nunes and Ronda Rousey, who are by NO means slouches.
Her first fight was a win against Shana Olsen via TKO (Punches) at Strikeforce - Challengers 11 on October 22nd, 2010 at the Save Mart Center in Fresno, California.
Julia's last fight was a win (via TKO) over Elina Nilsson at Invicta FC 2 - Baszler vs. McMann on July 28th, 2012

Besides being a mixed martial arts fighter, Julia is also a fitness model and personal trainer.
And the owner of some of the most incredible abs in MMA.
You can find out more about her at her website here:
