5 opponents for Valerie Loureda in Bellator

#2. Loureda vs. Hannah Guy 2

A fight that Bellator should revisit for Valerie Loureda is a rematch with Hannah ‘The Hurricane’ Guy. The two fought last May at Bellator 259, which saw Guy pull off an upset.

‘The Hurricane’ used her grappling to impose her will on the ground and picked up a unanimous decision win. Her toughness was on full display as she absorbed many significant strikes that could’ve knocked out others in the division.

The loss was a turning point for ‘Master’ Valerie as she made adjustments that she felt would better serve her career.

“My last fight was not a proper representation of the fighter I am although I showed a lot of heart and it was a fun fight to watch. She’s not better than me and I’m looking forward to a rematch of that fight in the future,” said Valerie Loureda to Vibe 105.5FM Toronto.

The pair meeting for a rematch would be interesting to see, especially if 'Master' has learned from the loss and worked on her game.

#1. Loureda vs. Diana Avsaragova

Arguably the biggest non-title fight that Bellator could book in the women’s flyweight division is 'Master' Valerie vs. Diana Avsaragova. The promotion clearly has high hopes for the two prospects as they continue to develop as MMA fighters.

‘Pantera’ and ‘Master’ Valerie have a large following on social media as well as highlight-reel knockout wins over Tara Graff. Bellator should definitely consider capitalizing on their following as a potential bout between the two could generate plenty of attention.

Avsaragova seemed to have taken offense to 'Master' Valerie's comments about her win over Graff and had quite an interesting response.

“Probably I’m in her head right now, that’s why she’s saying that,” said Diana Avsaragova at Bellator 262 Media Day.

‘Pantera’ is currently the tenth-ranked women’s flyweight, so another win by both stars could put the wheels in motion for a fight.
