Bellator Women’s Flyweight Champion Ilima Macfarlane In No Rush To Return

– Following her win at Friday’s Bellator 186 event, new Bellator women’s flyweight champion Ilima Macfarlane spoke with MMA Junkie about her next fight. She doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to defend her title…

“People are asking me, ‘Oh, are ou going to fight on the L.A. card at The Forum?’ I’m like, ‘No way!’ I’m going to relish in this for as long as I can. I’m going to hang out as the champion – I don’t have any need to fight immediately and defend the belt. I’m good. I can fight in six months.”
