Gallery Photos: ‘The Karate Hottie,’ Michelle Waterson through the years CHICAGO – UFC president Dana White seems to be undecided about the next strawweight title defense for Jessica Andrade . Saturday’s UFC 238 event was significant for the weight class since it featured what many considered to be a potential title eliminator that saw Tatiana Suarez (8-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) defeat Nina Ansaroff (10-7 MMA 4-3 UFC) by unanimous decision to put herself in the conversation to challenge for the belt. Although she won, Suarez’s inability to get a finish, along with a late charge from Ansaroff, created a situation in which the door is left open for someone else. That some someone, however, likely will not be Michelle Waterson (17-6 MMA, 5-2 UFC), who has been pushing for a title fight opportunity since her win over Karolina Kowalkiewicz at UFC on ESPN 2 in March.
