Does this not happen on every level of MMA short of the UFC? Of course it does. Now let\u2019s add back the players real slow and see why there is nothing wrong with the equation and we can look across the board at promotions and sanctioned events all the way up to the big leagues and see that having a fill-in opponent happens quite a bit. Ilima Macfarlance who makes her Pro debut is a terrific amateur fighter, Katie Castro who at the time is 0-2 is a not so terrific fighter, but a willing and game competitor\u2026Ilima\u2019s opponent pulls out, she has family that has flown in from Hawaii and across the country and we all have a decision to make. It\u2019s a cold evening so the fighters are wearing a top and bottom Katie unfortunately did not have a politically correct top\/bottom for the viewers out there, hence the term Soccer Mom but, she is agreeable to step in last minute. Do we look to make a fight happen with the resource that is available or do we cancel the fight\u2026<br \/>\n<\/em><br \/>\n<em>&#8220;First person we ask is her Trainer is he accepts the fight, then we ask Katie if she accepts the fight. We then get her pre fight with the doctor, wrapped up and they fight. Ilima wins by knocking Katie out and that is it. If we were not in San Diego, no one would care. If we did not have tons of talent that has come through our show no one would care. But in the end 6 months later and now everyone cares.&#8221;<br \/>\n<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[source: <a href=\"http:\/\/collateraldamagemma.com\/xpolde-fight-series-owner-gregg-sharp-speaks-out-against-controversial-fight-between-ilima-macfarlane-and-katie-castro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Collateral Damage MMA<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chad Mendes Strips, Gets VanZant Flustered During Important Interview &#8212; WATCH!<\/strong><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/players.brightcove.net\/3674338004001\/eaee41e3-5171-4ead-a4ec-4e7670e9e465_default\/index.html?videoId=4288504234001\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So remember that video of the &#8216;soccer mom&#8217; looking fighter who got knocked out quick?
