Weili has to be on this card, Zhang vs Lemos 
Maybe Moreno vs Pantoja 3
Amanda needs to fight but there isn’t anyone unless you give Raquel a rematch for beating Ketlen (I think she lost)

I think that Zhang will only fight once a year and it will not be in a place like Canada.  I think only LV or China.

It’s not as if the last Nunes/Peña fight was close- it was Nunes primarily winning most of the time. The trilogy no one wanted…

Shaping up to being a great card tbh. Would love to see Poirier/Gaethje but something tells me we’ll see that during International Fight Week

I say this, Is they a fight you care more to see with Nunes at the moment???, Do you really care who gets it because it just such a lame division, Anyone clamering for a Holly Holms or Raquel Penninton title shot???. 

i want an Aldana title shot because she the only fun women batamweight beside Nunes
