Looking like she needs to drop to 115 as well but maybe it’s harder down with people her own size since 125 is so shallow

Imagine being on the main card of an mma event this big while being that bad at mma. Like I said this women’s fight had no place on the main card. Put it to prelims and just have a 5 fight main card like normal

Wasn’t expecting a sub from Lauren but she showed she’s improved and added tools to her arsenal. Respect.
