There was a lot of big news that came out around UFC 133 this week. Zuffa is done with Golden Glory fighters and even bigger, the great Fedor Emelianenko is done with Strikeforce. But there's still a little unfinished business to tend to with regards to the Octagon Girls. Last month, it appeared fan favorite Brittney Palmer was dropped from the roster, then there was some confusion. Since then everyone's been mum on the topic.
The guys at MMAFix are dying to get an answer and tracked the tweets of Arianny Celeste, Chandella Powell and the lovely Brittney.
So? today the UFC Ring Girls flew out to Philly for UFC 133 as tweeted here by Arianny Celeste:
Great to be back 2 work! Weigh ins tommorow and shooting ultimate insider! Now ordering a movie..anyone seen Sucker Punch?
and by Chandella Powell:
Just landed! Hello Philly!!!!!;)
But when I read Brittney Palmer's tweets, things went a little different:
Had a blast today at th #USopenofsurfing with the fantastic crew from @daily_habit @FuelTV! Check it out @ 8pm tonight.. Pole dancing??
MMAFix says it doesn't sound like Palmer is going to pop up in the City of Brotherly Love.
Might I say first, yes Brittney (to pole dancing) and second? Hmmm? last time I checked, there's no Huntington Beach in Philadelphia. And I'm pretty sure she was definitely at this US Open of Surfing today as evidenced by this patriotic gentleman who posted this picture with Palmer:
Now the question that's weighing heavily on all of us - if the UFC has parted ways with Brittney, will it find a replacement or go with two-woman team for the near future? That's a lot of walking around the cage, smiling and taking photos. The Philly heat is brutal. Let's hope Arianny and Chandella are up to the task.
MMAFix followed up with an update that bright and early this morning Palmer tweeted she's headed to Philadelphia! Woo!
