Hottest Women MMA Weigh-Ins Ever

The face offs at the ceremonial weigh-ins before the MMA fights are great.
Sometimes I wish they happened in the ring ringht before the match.
But I guess that would be a bit too much like a schoolyard brawl huh?
Anyway, here are some of the best female MMA face-offs ever.

Lena "Hunter" Ovchynnikova vs Julia Budd

Paige VanZant vs  Kailin Curran

Ronda Rousy vs Cat Zingano

Miesha Tate vs Jessica Eye

Jessica Eye vs. Julianna Peña

MMA Women - Julia Budd

The number two ranked Featherweight MMA fighter in the world, Julia "The Jewel" Budd (10-2-0).
Julia was born on July 4th, 1983 in Roberts Creek, British Columbia, Canada.

She is five foot eight and weighs 145 pounds and was/is the first Bellator Women's Featherweight champion.
Julia started out in Muay Thai and is the only woman to defeat Gina Carano in Muay Thai competition.
In MMA, the only two women she has lost to are Ronda Rousey and Amanda Nunes, which is pretty impressive.

Rose "Thug Rose" Namajunas Defeats Michelle "The Karate Hottie" Waterson

On Saturday night, April 15 2017, Rose "Thug Rose" Namajunas pounded Michelle "The Karate Hottie" Waterson at UFC on FOX 24 live on FOX from inside Sprint Center in Kansas City, Missouri
Michelle got a sweep takedown in the first round but after that it was all Rose.
She gave the "Karate Hottie" a head kick that floored her and from there it was ground-and-pound and a rear-naked choke finish.
Rose now goes to on to face the winner of the Joanna Jedrzejczyk vs. Jessica Andrade fight later this year.

Also, as opposed to some MMA fights we have seen lately, these two ladies showed real class after the fight.

Ana Julaton - Women Fighters

Like a lot of other female MMA fighters, Filipino-American Ana Julaton started out as a female boxer.
As a boxer, Ana has a 14-4-2 record.
But in 2014, she signed a contract with ONE FC to fight in MMA for them.
Not without reason though, Ana has a black belt in Bok Fu and also a black belt in Taekwondo.
Her current MMA record is 2-2-0 and her last MMA fight was in 2015.
Ana was born on July 5th, 1980 in San Francisco, California.

Megan Anderson vs Charmaine Tweet Results

At Invicta FC 21 - Anderson vs. Tweet, Megan Anderson defeated Charmaine Tweet via TKO (Punches and Head Kick) in 2:05 of the second round.
This puts Megan at 8-2-0 and Charmaine at 9-6-0.
The only two women who have been able to stop Megan at this point are Cindy Dandois and Zoie Shreiweis.

Arlene Blencowe - MMA Women

Female MMA fighter Arlene "Angelfist" Blencowe was born on April 11th, 1983 in New South Wales, Australia.
Arlene started out in boxing like a lot of other MMA fighters these days.
She held held titles in both the World Boxing Federation and the Women’s International Boxing Association.
Her boxing record when she retired was 4-4-0.
Arlene made the change over to MMA in 2014 and currently has a 7-6-0 record.

UFC 207: Nunes vs Rousey - Results

Well it's a good thing that I didn't predict the UFC 207: Nunes vs Rousey fight.
Again.
I really thought that Amanda would win...but not in 48 seconds with a KO.

And I really didn't think that Amanda would almost immediately go to Twitter and post this....

And here I thought Ronda was a bad sport.

UFC 207: Nunes vs Rousey

At UFC 207: Nunes vs Rousey, on December 30, 2016 at T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, we get...well... Ronda Rousey vs Amanda Nunes.
I quit trying to predict MMA fights a long time ago.
Actually after Strikeforce: Carano vs. Cyborg...I just gave up.

Amanda is 13-4-0 and coming off a 4 win streak.

This will be Ronda's first fight since her loss to Holly Holm at UFC 193 - Rousey vs. Holm in November of 2015.

Nicdali Rivera-Calanoc - Women Fighters

I haven't done anything on MMA fighter Nicdali "The Night Queen" Rivera-Calanoc since 2102.
Currently she has a 9-9-0 record and though she announced her retirement in 2014, she has come back for two more fights, winning her last one against Ronni Nanney at FCF - Freestyle Cage Fighting 51 on March 12th, 2016.
Oh yeah...she is also a model.

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.

UFC Fight Night 80 Results - Rose Namajunas vs Paige VanZant

At UFC Fight Night 80, Rose Namajunas pretty much dominated Paige VanZant.
Rose (4-2-0), soundly defeated Paige (6-2-0) in what everyone thought would be her big night.
You have to give Piage credit though.
Even after being cut open by an elbow early in the fight and basically outclassed in every round, she hung in there and took the punishment.
She finally had to tap to a rear-naked choke in the fifth round.

And I know it has nothing to do with fighting, but everyone talks about how hot Paige VanZant is (and she is) ....
Well here is Rose when she isnt kicking ass and taking names (and her head isn't shaved)....

The Current UFC Women MMA Fighters - 2015

Last year I did a post about the then Current UFC Female roster.
