Is it possible that UFC195 could be the first UFC event in history to have 3 women fights on a PPV card? It sure does look that way. Yesterday the huge announcement was made that Ronda Rousey will be defending her title for the 7th time against decelerated Holly Holm.
Dana White had an interview with New York Times and he said that he’s aiming to have Miesha Tate vs Amanda Nunes on that same card. It doesn’t stop there though because White also said he looks to have Joanna Jedrzejczyk defend her straweight title against challenger Claudia Gadelha in the co main event. However this all depends if Gadelha’s injuries are healed by January.
Jedrzejczyk and Gadelha have met once before, during last December in what many believe was a razor thin split decision victory for Jedrzejczyk. The rematch between the two has been inevitable for quite sometime.
The champ has a professional MMA record of (10-0) she is coming off a 3rd round TKO victory that she earned in June against top contender Jessica Penne. The challenger has a record of (13-1). She is coming off a UD win against Jessica Aguliar that she earned at UFC190 from this month. The one blemish in Gadelha’s record was of course delivered at the hands of Jedrzejczyk so you can bet she’ll be looking for some redemption.
It seems like we are now living in a day and age where women are dominating in sports, we have serina Williams in tennis, Hope solo in soccer, we have the divas revaluation in the WWE making waves in professional wrestling, and now we have both Ronda Rousey and Joanna Jedrzejczyk representing the UFC/ MMA world in thier respective divisions.
Everything is up in the air as it pertains to Jedrzejczyk vs Gadelha, but if this fight happens along with the possible Tate vs Nunes and the already set Rousey vs Holm UFC195 should be named ladies night.
How do you guys feel about a possible women’s dominated card? I for have faith that these 6 ladies have what it takes to put on a stellar show and bring the house down.
We here at WNB will be sure to keep all of you updated on the happenings of UFC195 as they continue to surface. UFC195 Is set to take place at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas and will be live on PPV on January 2nd 2016
