LAS VEGAS — UFC president Dana White had zero plans to add any more women’s divisions to the 11 current weight classes under the UFC banner.
That is, until he did.
White says he was sitting in his office one day when he officially decided to unveil a new women’s 125-pound division. But before he could even work out 100 percent of the logistics, the news had already broken just a few hours after he made his decision.
“I was literally sitting at the office, two weeks ago or whenever this all came together,” White said during the tryouts for the 26 season of The Ultimate Fighter.
