Holly Holm to debut at UFC 181

Female boxer turned UFC MMA fighter Holly Holm will debut at UFC 181: Hendricks vs. Lawler II on December 6, 2014 at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Her opponent will be Raquel Pennington (4-4-0).
I have liked Holly ever since her boxing days.
She is 33-2-3 in boxing and 7-0-0 in MMA so far.
And yes...a lot of people are talking about Holly vs Ronda.
Which is a much better idea than Rousey vs Carano.

Felice Herrig - MMA Women

According to the Unified Women's MMA Rankings, Felice "Lil Bulldog" Herrig is the #10 ranked female strawweight fighter in the world.
Her current MMA record is 9-5-0 and before she was stopped by Tecia Torres at Invicta FC 7 - Honchak vs. Smith on December 7th, 2013, she was on a 4 win roll.
Yeah, it's been almost a year since she fought last, but you may have seen her on The Ultimate Fighter 20.

Rachael Cummins - Female MMA Fighters

This beautiful young lady is female MMA fighter AND model, Rachael Cummins.

Michelle Waterson - Female MMA Fighters

With all the other stuff going on I totally forgot (okay missed) that Michelle Waterson had her first MMA fight in over a year on September 6th, 2014.
At Invicta FC 8 - Waterson vs. Tamada, she defeated Yasuko Tamada (who was 15-8-3 going in).
This brings Michelle up to 12-3-0.
She is also still the Invicta FC Atomweight Champion.

A lot of people get all excited because Miesha Tate has won two matches in a row and they say that she is on a roll.
Michelle has won six in a row and she is the #9 ranked pound-for-pound female MMA fighter in the world by MMARising.com.
And yes, that's over Miesha.

Bethe Correia - Female MMA

Like the gunslingers of the "Old West", Bethe "Pitbull" Correia (9-0-0) has called out Ronda Rousey and her "Four Horsewomen".
I'm sorry, as a pro wrestling fan from way back I still have trouble typing that term associated with Rousey.
Anyway...like a gunfighter, Bethe said she was coming for Rousey and her title and she was gonna go through the Four Hor...the others to do that.
The thing is...she has already been through two of them.

Bethe has already taken out Shayna Baszler at UFC 177 and Jessamyn Duke at UFC 172.
That just leaves Marina Shafir....and Ronda Rousey.
So Bethe is moving up through the ranks.

Can she do it?
I dont know.
But it will be fun to watch.

Bethe Correia vs Shayna Baszler Highlights

Miesha Tate vs Rin Nakai at UFC Fight Night

On September 20th, 2014, Miesha "Cupcake" Tate is gonna take on Rin "I dont have a cute ring name because I dont need one" Nakai.
I swear this match up looks like a fitness model going up against a bodybuilder.
They will face each other at UFC Fight Night at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.

Miesha is 14-5-0 and Rin is 16-0-1.
Miesha's wins have been 3 KO/TKOs, 6 Submissions and 5 Decisions.
Rin on the other hand has 4 KO/TKOs, 6 Submissions and 6 Decisions.
Pretty darn close huh?

Who's gonna win?
I have been wrong in every female MMA fight I can remember.
So there is no way I am calling this.
But just from their body types I wonder what kind of match up this will be.

Cristiane "Cyborg" Justino - Female MMA

Female MMA fighter Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino (12-1-0, 1 ND) the Invicta FC World Featherweight Champion.
The #2 ranked pound-for-pound female MMA fighter in the world and the #1-ranked 145-pound female fighter according to the Unified Women's MMA latest rankings.

Miesha Tate Getting Ready

Female MMA fighter Miesha Tate getting ready for her UFC on Fox: Werdum vs. Browne match against Liz Carmouche.
Miesha is 13-5-0 and coming off two straight losses.
One to Ronda Rousey and one to Cat Zingano.
Liz is 9-4-0 and her last fight was a loss to Alexis Davis.
