Fresh off a unanimous-decision win over Sijara Eubanks (2-2) earlier this month at Invicta FC 21, Ladd (5-0) said she wouldn’t hesitate to say yes should a spot on the UFC’s women’s bantamweight roster open. “My goal is to be in the UFC this year, so if they call, I’m going,” Ladd told MMAjunkie Radio. “My wish list is for my next fight to be in the UFC. It’s another step, and it’s another huge step, but for my entire career, from my first amateur fight, one little step at a time, keep on going. And I believe that is the next step now.” Ladd, who said she’d be open to taking on a short-notice assignment if that were the only option, is aware that a move to the UFC this early in her career would probably mean a slower climb up the 135-pound ranks – currently ruled by UFC champ Amanda Nunes.
