Women's Strawweight Champion - Joanna Jędrzejczyk (13-0)
Joanna Champion, with Mighty Mouse, is the other champ to enter and exit 2016 with an intact belt. She was roughed up a bit by Karolina Kowalkiewicz at UFC 205, but she was ultimately successful. No challenger.
The coming weekend's event will probably have title implications for this division; there's three strawweight bouts on it. Joanna was interviewed last weekend and claimed she'd know her next opponent 'in a few days', and apparently Jessica Andrade (who fights Angela Hill on the 4th) was already offered a straight title shot in April/May but didn't want to go that long without a fight after her Dec. 30 bout fell through.

Going to guess Andrade gets the shot if she wins; if Overkill manages to derail her I dunno what happens. Hill may get it, but Grasso is second on the card (not sure if they consider it a co-main) so if she wins she could get fast-tracked I guess? Also Tecia Torres is fighting Bec Rawlings on the undercard but I'm not sure either of those are in contention.

Err, from the article you linked it was injured before she went to help Ronda?

Someone at Capcom liked Angela Hill's weigh-in:

Carla is seeking to preserve her ranking in lucite by never fighting anyone ever again.
She's slated to fight Randa Markos this weekend! But yah, she's spent the last year ducking Gadelha and Andrade while complaining about not getting fights.

She's got TUF beef with Randa at least, so they have something to play up if they want.
