“I feel like it definitely should be (a title eliminator),” Blanchfield said at the UFC Atlantic City media day earlier this week. “I’m No. 2, she’s No. 3. The only two girls ahead of us are the girls that have been fighting for the title. So when I win Saturday, I feel like I’m definitely a lock for the title.”
