    Erin vs Manon is good enough to be for an interim belt. Too many title fight rematches always messes up the divisions. Erin could have fought for a belt already. The winner should be the backup fighter for the belt next.

      I agree with your general premise but the Valentina-Alexa rematches actually make sense and plus Erin’s only 24…she’s got plenty of time. I think taking a few extra fights will be good for her in the long run once she actually gets the title shot

    Erin better sharpen her striking up. It’s extremely questionable. I hope she made massive improvements on her striking. Obviously her grappling is top flight her striking is subpar. I hope she cleans that up. She should go to that place that Khalil roundtree went to. His striking is vicious! I think that will help her out tremendously.

Rose já está mais adaptada ao peso mosca e enfrentará de igual para igual a Erin se se enfrentarem. Rose quer voltar a ser campeã e enfrentará pra valer as adversárias do peso-mosca. A Erin, antes de pensar em disputar o cinturão, terá que vencer a Manon Fiorot, o que não será nada fácil. É muito difícil derrubar a Manon. O ponto forte da Erin é derrubar e poderá ficar frustrada e perder para a francesa.
