A win for Waterson will put her on her first three-fight winning streak at 115-pounds since 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prior to her UFC debut in July 2015, the JacksonWink MMA product had established herself as one of the world&#8217;s best atomweight fighters as she would earn the Invicta FC title in her second fight after dropping down to the division in October 2012. Waterson would dethrone the then champion, <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/exclusive-interviews\/exclusive-jessica-penne-and-the-journey-to-self-discovery\/\">Jessica Penne<\/a> in an instant classic before going on to defend the belt once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 105-pound atomweight class isn&#8217;t currently in the UFC, but the former champ, <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/carla-esparza\/carla-esparza-calls-for-ufc-to-create-atomweight-division-it-needs-to-be-brought-in\/\">among others at 115-pounds<\/a> including Penne, believes that now is the time for the continually expanding weight class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf there are girls fighting at atomweight, then they should make a division for that in the UFC,\u201d Waterson said at UFC Philadelphia&#8217;s media day (via <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Cageside Press (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/cagesidepress.com\/2019\/03\/29\/ufc-philadelphia-michelle-waterson\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cageside Press<\/a>). \u201cIf you build it, they will come. Give them a place to shine, and they will come and they will perform and they will pour their hearts out just like the rest of the girls have coming into the UFC. Dana White\u2019s seen it, and he\u2019s been able to reap the benefits of the passion that all the females bring to the UFC, to the sport of mixed martial arts, and to martial arts in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are little girls who have trained since they were three, four years old doing karate, jiu-jitsu, and they want a platform when they grow up.
