Female fighter Liz ‘Girl-Rilla’ Carmouche (5-1) almost pulled off a huge upset last March after dominating Strikeforce Women’s Welterweight Champion Marloes Coenen through almost four rounds of their fight. Coenen would defend her title by pulling off a fourth round triangle submission.
Carmouche is preparing to step back in the cage again on July 22, when she meets former champ Sarah Kaufman at the upcoming Strikeforce Challengers: Bowling vs. Voelker III event.
