Dakota Ditcheva wants it. John Martin now wants it. Liz Carmouche has said she wants it.
It sounds like the stars are aligning for a high-profile PFL women's flyweight ***** le fight – it's just a matter of when.
"I've talked to her," Martin told reporters Friday after PFL New York at UBS Arena in Elmont, N.Y. (h/t Home of Fight). "She wants to stay busy. She's been out of the cage for a year. I think in the first round tonight, we saw her kind of feel Denise (Kielholtz), and there was a little bit of cage rust, maybe. But she got over that really quickly. So yeah, she's going to be back pretty soon, and I think Liz is the fight we make."
Martin hopes it's a fight PFL can get on the books by the end of the year, prior to their official branding merger with MVP. That timeline seems to align with Ditcheva (16-0), who voiced desire for a quick return and frequent activity after a year out of action, partially due to a hand injury.
"I think so," Ditcheva said, if a crack at the champion should be on deck. "That makes sense, yeah. I think it makes more sense before she shouted out the 135-pound division. But anyway, we'll see what happens. She changes her mind every second."
