Two women's matches have been added to UFC on ESPN+ 24 Jan. 25 at PNC Arena in Raleigh, NC. in a Bantamweight bout, Sara McMann will face Lina Lansberg. And in a Strawweight bout, Brianna Van Buren will face Hannah Cifers. The last time we saw Sara she lost to Marion Reneau in Feb. 2018. She is now on the comeback trail from a knee injury. Of course Sara is a 2006 Olympic Silver Medal wrestler. Her MMA record is 11-5. She is currently on a two fight losing streak. She now trains at Team Alpha Male in Sacramento. Here she is returning from a major injury at 39 years old. Who knows what she will be like? Lina is 37 years old from Malmo, Sweden. She trains with former UFC fighter Akira Corassani. Her record is 10-5 and 4-3 in the UFC. She is currently on a two fight winning streak. Lina is a kickboxer. She doesn't do anything else well. But she is capable of pulling off an upset if her opponent is off her game. Brianna is 26 years old from Gilroy, CA. Her record is 9-2. She won the Invicta Strawweight Championship in a tournament. She came to the UFC in July as a late replacement and she beat former Invicta Strawweight Champion Livinha Souza. Hannah is 27 years old from Oxford, NC. Her record is 10-3 and 2-1 in the UFC. She's on a two fight winning streak but this is a big step up in competition level for her. Hannah is a hard puncher but she is otherwise limited. I expect Brianna's higher competition level to catch up to her.Elbow Queen! 💪👑@LinaLansberg looks to make it 3️⃣ straight when she faces @Sara_McMann at #UFCRaleigh! pic.twitter.com/rcDWOzLskv

Welcome to Frank Pozen's Big Bad Blog. A lot of folks have been asking me to update them about my recovery. So I thought I would start a blog primarily to do that but also to talk about other topics of interest including the wrestling business and whatever else I can think of. I plan to update this on a regular basis so check back and leave a comment if you wish.
