Irene Aldana vs Talita Bernardo added to Jan. 14 UFC show

Irene Aldana posted on her Instagram that she will fight Talita Bernardo on UFC Fight Night 124 Jan. 14 at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis. This will air on the prelims on Fox Sports 1 in the US and The Fight Network in Canada. This fight will be at Bantamweight. Irene is 29 years old from Guadalajara, Mexico. She is a teammate of Strawweight prospect Alexa Grasso but she's not as good as Alexa. Her record is 7-4 but she lost her first two UFC fights. She hasn't looked good and I didn't like her in Invicta either. She's a striker with no power or ground game. And she lacks aggression. Talita is 31 years old from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She trains at PRVT so Jessica Andrade is her teammate. She made her UFC debut on short notice and lost to Marion Reneau. Talita started out OK. I thought she won round one. But she ran out of gas and her striking is terrible. So I guess she can win if she can take Irene down. Or Irene can win if she can keep the fight standing. Either way, I don't think either belongs in the UFC.
