High-Level Flyweights Clash In Canada As Erin Blanchfield And Rose Namajunas Make Their Bid For A Title Shot
With Valentina Shevchenko back on top of the flyweight division following a memorable trilogy with Alexa Grasso, the rest of the contenders at 125 pounds have a window of opportunity to announce themselves as the No. 1 contender. That’s where the five-round co-main event at UFC Fight Night: Moreno vs Albazi comes into play.
Erin Blanchfield and Rose Namajunas could very well earn themselves a title shot should they get their hand raised in Edmonton. While Manon Fiorot holds wins over both women and is likely getting the next crack at Shevchenko, timing is everything, and a win over a fellow top contender always bodes well in a division as open as women’s flyweight.
