Top 10 Women's Bantamweight Rankings (135 lbs.): The Ronda Rousey Hit List


1 Ronda Rousey 6-0 (UFC Bantamweight Champion)      
The undefeated "Rowdy" one is heading up the newly minted and first women’s division in the UFC.  None of her victims have escaped the initial round against her but there is a murderers row of challengers awaiting the daunting task.  Here are the first female Bantamweight rankings by MMAFO that will most likely change as Zuffa signs talent to their inaugural women’s 135 lb. division.

2 Marloes Coenen 20-5 

"Rumina," the former Strikeforce Champion is coming off a her 1st win in Invicta and sports one of the most impressive records in all of women’s MMA.  The submission specialist (14 submission wins) lost at 145 lbs. to a roided up “Femborg” and got caught in a sub against Miesha Tate in the 4th round of their title fight.  The Golden Glory fighter is a perennial elite women’s MMA fighter that has yet to face the “Rowdy” one.

3 Miesha Tate 13-3

"Cupcake" fell, though she fought valiantly against the champion but everybody wants to see the rematch of the greatest feud in women’s MMA history.  Tate suffered a head kick against Julie Kedzie that would have felled a normal woman (or man) but battled back to get the needed Armbar win.  Also, I don't know if anyone has noticed, but Tate is also rather beautiful.

4 Liz Camouche 7-2

The Marine is riding a two fight winning streak from Invicta and her two losses come from former champions Sarah Kaufman (by Decision) and Marloes Coenen (by Triangle Choke) in the 4th round on short notice. The "Girl-Rilla" has KO power in her hands and no fear.

5 Sara McMann 6-0

The undefeated prospect is a well rounded and won a silver medal in the ’04 games.  The promo writes itself as two fellow Olympians compete with their plied skills. The challenger’s wrestling versus the champions Judo.

6 Sarah Kaufman 15-2 

Sarah suffered and humiliating loss to the champion but she is still one of the best in all of women’s MMA though she needs to develop the hands more.  The former champion still has game and refuses to stop improving.

7 Alexis Davis 12-5

The "Ally-Gator" defeated well respected veteran Julie Kedzie and TKO’d prospect Amanda Nunes with a 1st round RNC win.The  grappling wiz pits her blackbelt against Ronda’s gold belt.

8 Amanda Nunes 7-2

The “Lioness of the Ring” suffered a setback TKO loss to Alexis Davis but rebounded in Invicta 2 and fights out of the AMA Fight Club.  A beloved striker in the women’s game.

9 Cat Zigano 7-0 

The undefeated Jiu-Jitsu stylist has yet to taste defeat and has only gone the distance 1 time so far in her young career.  The "Alpha" Cat still needs to test the American waters but training at Black House means she shall be ready.

10 Shayna Baszler 15-7

The Josh Barnett student had a 4 fight winning streak snapped by Sara McMann but rebounded last out in Invicta.  She’s been around for a long time and faced many of the best.  14 of her 15 wins have come by way of the tap as the "Queen of Spades" would rather not take prisoners.  This girl rocks hard!
