Always appreciate feedback when we've gotten something wrong. Next time I'll make sure I get the commissioner on record with the precise call on why something was scratched.

Also Christa lost via a submission victory not a KO to Jody. That Christa was the only fighter to not bother to tap was what put her to sleep. Congratulations to Jody it was a good first fight performance for her. Janna and Jessica are going to fight in January, assuming Jessica can make weight.

Sorry I was not told that the other fighter was over. In any case it was a shame those two couldn't fight, it would have been a really excellent bout. I updated the article to reflect this new info.
