It’s been debated at great lengths that the popularity or dare I say the lack of overall popularity of women’s MMA is due to the fact that they haven’t yet had that defining fight that captures the world’s imagination. WMMA has its stars and faces to better market and promote the sport and they have done a magnificent job and they wouldn’t be where it’s at now without standout performers and personalities like Gina Carano and Cristiane ‘Cyborg’ Santos.

It’s kind of unfortunate but WMMA still exhibits the appearance of being handled with “kid gloves” by many of the larger organizations that promote the female in the sport. The combination of lack of female competitors overall in the sport and the simple fact that it hasn’t been totally accepted by the masses is holding the women back. One thing WMMA does have going for them are a handful of “stars” that have shown they can put butts in the seats for their battles inside the cage.

There was action and drama, heroes and villains, and most importantly, something was always happening to keep you interested. Four big, important, events happened this past month, and one of them wasn’t even technically an event. We began the month with UFC 132: Faber vs. Cruz and closed it with Strikeforce: Fedor vs. Henderson. In between was arguably the more intriguing part of the month with the UFC 133 lineup changes and the Alistair Overeem saga.
