Bellator have women's flyweight and featherweight divisions.

However Keri Melendez fought at strawweight at Bellator 165: Chandler vs. Henderson and now Elina will fight at bantamweight at Bellator 169: King Mo vs. Ishii.

Anyone know whether they plan to get Elina to move down to 125 or is this just a one-off to fill the card due to injuries to Bruna x 2? Or is this Bellator testing the waters before creating more women's divisions?

@Macca According to press release sent by Bellator, the fight is at 145 pounds. I assume due to the short notice for Elina. Sinead was already scheduled to fight someone else in the BAMMA card. This fight was most likely arranged by BAMMA for their card and ended up bumped up when the Bruna Vargas fight got scrapped.

However, if Elina impresses, Bellator could offer her a deal for 125 (she doesn't seem too big for 135 and has fought at 125 iirc), but I doubt it.
