If Waterson was fighting the cure for cancer... I'd still have a hard time not picking the Karate Hottie.

Tough fight for Michelle, but I think she'll take it.

I think Daly will win the fight. She's a big 115er with a well rounded game and a lot of experience.

Karate Hottie is a blown up 105er. She's a hottie though.

Aisling repped us when most wouldn't. War Daly! :D
Nice.

I understand she really wanted to be on this card, so the UFC gave her a fight.

She did an interview where she said it's basically almost impossible for her to take a short notice fight at 115 because of the massive weight cut. Aisling is one of those fighters who could fight a lot more at 125 and probably look better at that weight, like JoJo Calderwood.

I'm glad Aisling has been given this opportunity, but I can't help but think she is totally, utterly overmatched here. At this point in her career, Michelle is good to great or even elite in EVERY phase of MMA. Her one glaring weakness was offensive wrestling and she is now good at takedowns as evidenced by her last fight.

I know I'm at Waterson homer and I'm glad she is getting a fight, but I don't see much else this fight does for her except provide an easy win to pad her record with.

Judging by these pics, Aisling's "massive weight cut" to 115 is because she blows up between fights like Hendricks.

Its because they should have a 125 division. Most of the girls fighting at 115 are actual 125ers killing themselves to make the weight.

I wouldn't put her into this category though.

This is her weighing in at 125:


This is 115, right? Seems fine.


If that cut kills her, it might be more of a diet issue.
