Bellator women’s flyweight champion Ilima-Lei Macfarlane and Valerie Letourneau know they want to fight each other next. The only thing that needs to be settled is where the title fight takes place.
After her win Friday night at Bellator 201 from Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, Calif., Letourneau (10-6 MMA, 2-0 BMMA) called out Macfarlane (8-0 MMA, 7-0 BMMA), who accepted the challenge after her own win to successfully defend her title.
Macfarlane, a native of Honolulu, said she wants her next title defense to take place in Hawaii, which has never hosted a major promotion’s event. Letourneau, a native of Montreal, is willing to go along with that, though she also has a desire to fight in Canada.
Good thing they had a chance to talk about it already (via Instagram).
Or not. Nothing was settled there. But it’s nice to see them hugging and getting along before they punch each other in the face.
