Actually either way the winner of that fight deserves the next shot no matter what as they'd have basically cleared the rest of the top 8 plus who else would Grasso fight if she beats Shevchenko the 3rd fight, and also it is clearly a title eliminator matchup anyways.

People acting like Blanchfield and FIorot are not coming off one of the most boring fights in the history of the division, and acting like Valentina isn't coming off giving the best fight in the history of that weight class... with that last fight she deserves a trilogy, she almost beats Grasso (she won 2 rounds). So yes, they the winner of Fiorot vs Erin deserves to fight for the belt, but also Valentina deserves the trilogy. That said, people keep overrating Erin. She's only 24 and getting better, she will likely be a champion one day. With the skillset she has, she is not beating the top girls right now, and she will never beat Natalia Silva ever either which is a prospect of her same generation. She is not beating Manon, unless it is by a robbery decision in her hometown of New Jersey, cause Erin's wrestling is extremely overrated and her striking is just pretty much that of a toddler@@EverythingMMA

Yessir! I mean, it's been nearly 2 years, but finally I am back and ready to grind this year and no more breaks glad to see you're still here!
