Cage Warriors announced today that their Women's Flyweight Champion Molly McCann will face Gillian Robertson on UFC Fight Night 130 May 27 at the Echo Arena in Liverpool, England. It's a no brainer because Molly is from Liverpool. Her record is 7-1 and in her last fight she won the Cage Warriors title with a win over Bryony Tyrell. Molly is currently on a six fight winning streak. The competition level of her opponents is probably not that high. But we'll find out soon enough where she fits in the UFC. Gillian is probably not much better than any of Molly's previous opponents. Gillian is 22 years old from Niagara Falls, ON but she now trains at American Top Team in Florida. Her record is 4-2. She lost in the first round of TUF 26. But she won over Emily Whitmire on the TUF 26 Finale. The fighters on that show were really bad but Emily was one of the worst. So I don't think I have seen enough of Gillian to know how good she is. And she is going into enemy territory where the fans are going to go nuts for Meatball Molly. At least she already had her debut so Gillian shouldn't have any UFC jitters.
