UFC strawweight Joanne Calderwood is on the move.
According to Ariel Helwani on Wednesday's edition of UFC Tonight, the former The Ultimate Fighter 20 competitor will head to Montreal's esteemed Tristar Gym Saturday to see if the team is the right fit for her career moving forward.
"I want to be around a world-level professional MMA team that will help take me to the next level and be a better fighter," Calderwood told Helwani. "I knew I had to change unless I wanted to stay the same fighter, and that is not my case. I want to be the best and I've realized I need to go out there and be selfish and put my best interests first for my career. My dedication and my want for learning would be a waste."
"As for a fight, I'm going to give it four weeks to get settled and then see if Tristar would be happy [with] me fighting...April onward would be perfect," Calderwood said. "I'm not one for calling anyone out as you know, but Rose got my fight and we both got fight of the season [on TUF 20] and I think it'd be an even better fight outside the house with her being with her team and me being a whole lot better fighter all around. But apart from that, [I'll take] anyone."
