Former Bellator flyweight champ Ilima-Lei Macfarlane has no desire for an immediate rematch with Juliana Velasquez after the Brazilian took her title at Bellator 254.
That doesn’t line up with what champions usually say, but Macfarlane is honest to a fault. When she finally got around to watching the five-round fight, she told MMA Fighting, she thought it was “boring as sh*t” and looked at the positives of moving to the next chapter in her career rather than getting revenge.
“Nah, I’m good,” she said when asked about a second fight.
