TEMECULA, Calif. –  Keri Melendez is a unique commodity on the Bellator roster in that she continues to be booked in strawweight bouts when the promotion has no formal division. Melendez (4-0 MMA, 4-0 BMMA) picked up another win in the weight class on Friday when she defeated Mandy Polk (6-5 MMA, 0-1 BMMA) by unanimous decision at Bellator 229, which took place at Pechanga Resort & Casino, and aired on Paramount following prelims on MMA Junkie. Thus far, Bellator only officially carries women’s featherweight and women’s flyweight classes. Melendez would like to see another added, and she hopes her latest victory contributes to the process of making it happen.
