This card is a reflection on the state of the women’s bantamweight division. It could be argued the two most important contests of the year for the division are taking place on this card. Should Irene Aldana beat Holly Holm, she could earn herself a title shot. Should Juliana Pena beat Germaine de Randamie, she could earn herself a title shot. Regardless, this card isn’t getting a lot of attention, even for a televised card. In other words, women’s bantamweight is a disaster area. No doubt the UFC is hoping at least one of the younger competitors emerges victorious as they’re running short on contenders to throw at Amanda Nunes.
