I'd say Kara-France vs Askarov would fill it but I'd rather have another big fight for the main event, title contention worthy.

 

Not out of the question,  they might move the co-main up-

... that would leave Matt Brown or the Karate Hottie for a co-main ?

Sara McMann is still fighting at 41 years old. I've always liked her, but she's an example of what could have been. Had WMMA been bigger in the 2000s with more opportunities, she would've been dominant. However, I've always seen her as someone who peaked in her 20s and has been on a gradual decline ever since (you know, like most adults). By the time she got into MMA, her athletic prime was over but she still had a world class wrestling base and was an incredible athlete overall. It carried her this far but I just don't see her doing anything more than mixing wins and losses with middle-of-the-road opponents at this point.

I would've liked to have seen her rematch Rousey. Even though the first fight ended with a lucky knee to the liver by Ronda, you could tell that Sara's hips were so good that Ronda couldn't throw her. If that knee hadn't landed, it would've been interesting to see how things played out. It's all what ifs at this point.

Other notes...

I thought Matt Brown retired. Either way, Brown and Barberena has the potential to be a good fight.

What weight class is Waterson fighting at? She looked like a featherweight the last time she was pictured.

Neil Magny doesn't inspire confidence any longer, if he ever did.
