Filed under: News , UFC , Videos DETROIT – Felice Herrig may not embrace the “veteran” title when it comes to her career, but she hopes her years of work eventually pay off in the form of a UFC title shot. Herrig (13-6 MMA, 4-1 UFC) made her pro MMA debut in February 2009 following a lengthy run in kickboxing. She’s arguably at her best now, though, bringing a three-fight winning streak into Saturday’s strawweight showdown with Cortney Casey (7-4 MMA, 3-3 UFC) at UFC 218, which takes place at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. The fight airs on the FS1-televised prelims following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass and prior to the pay-per-view main card. Although improving her current run of victories to four would be a colossal achievement, Herrig said she’s not going to beg for a 115-pound title shot.
