What’s Next For The Women Of UFC Fortaleza

This past Saturday, the UFC returned to Brazil for UFC Fight Night 144. While most eyes were on the main event and co-feature, two interesting matchups took place in the promotion’s women’s divisions. Taila Santos met Mara Romero-Borella at 125 pounds. Former Invicta FC titleholder Livinha Souza met Sarah Frota. The bout between Frota and Souza originally was a strawweight affair. Yet the weight changed into a catchweight bout when Frota missed by seven pounds. Now that the dust settled, let’s take a look at what’s next for the women of UFC Fortaleza.
