A women’s bantamweight superfight between UFC champions Weili Zhang and Alexa Grasso could be part of the UFC 300 anniversary event on April 13 in Las Vegas.
The girls announced their willingness to share the octagon on social media.
Whaley: “Hey champ. Fans might want to see us fight at UFC 300.”
Grasso: “I admire you so much! And I would love to come out against you for a title defense. Will you move up to flyweight?”
Whaley: “I’m in! Now is the time.”
Grasso: “Let’s do it!”
In March of this year, Alexa Grasso sensationally took the UFC flyweight championship belt from Valentina Shevchenko with a fourth-round rear-naked choke victory, and in September, the Mexican retained her title with an immediate rematch with “Bullet”.
Last November, Weili Zhang regained the UFC featherweight championship belt with a second-round rear-naked choke victory over Carla Esparza, and in August of this year, the Chinese woman successfully defended her title with a unanimous decision win over Amanda Lemos.
Alexa Grasso and Weili Zhang are currently ranked No. 1 and No. 2 in the UFC’s P4P women’s rankings, respectively.
