New Womens Ultimate Fighter coming

[blackceasar]

So I've been seeing promos on TV for this I coming I think in Sept? Introducing another women's weight class and championship. Do we know who the coaches are going to be? I think this UF is going to be all women this time around, not half and half. At the end of the day there will probably be some super fight down the road where Dana gets his girl Rousey to move up or down in weight to take that new belt too.

Update.. its Strawweight, like 115.. Rousey is way too big for those chicks lol.. also the coaches are Pettis and Melendez.. man I hope Gilbert bets Pettis.. I like them bad boys (Melendez and the Diaz brothers) from the Strikeforce days.

Yeah this has been planned for months. The UFC took all of the top strawweight fighters from Invicta and put them on TUF.

Rousey will never drop down to 125 or 115. She has trouble making 135 easily so thats not an option.

Don't the say Ronda walks around at 155-160?

I am really pumped for the 115 division and I really am looking forward to this season of TUF. I feel like there will be some really good scraps there.

I hope the Final is the Tecia Torres vs Carla Esparza match we were supposed to see before they left Invicta for this.

I doubt she gets to 125, but she has said the cut is much easier than from the first couple times now. The roughest one she said she had was the Carmouche fight. I wouldn't say she has trouble making 135 at this point and she has never missed, or been afforded a 1 lb allowance due to always being in a championship fight. But I agree it's still not an easy cut, and there is a snowballs chance in hell she cuts any lower.

Yeah, she is working with Dolce now so the cut is easier than it was. I cant see her making it to 125 though.

Seems like it's going to be a pretty great season. I just wish TUF wouldn't show soo many spoilers. Great upset last night.

Womens MMA is starting to grow on me. These ladies seem to have some skill.
