Now that one dream is fulfilled for Michelle Waterson, it is time to get on to the next.
The former Invicta atomweight champion checked an item off of her mixed martial arts bucket list by signing with the UFC, as reported by Ariel Helwani on Monday's installment of UFC Tonight (h/t MMAFighting.com's Shaun Al-Shatti).
But simply arriving isn't enough to fulfill her personal goals. The 29-year-old Colorado native is aiming at nothing short of championship gold, and is excited to get the next portion of her journey underway.
Granted, she had to come up in weight to make it all possible, but that was a sacrifice The Karate Hottie was willing to make in order to compete on the biggest stage in MMA.
