PHILADELPHIA – Earlier this month, Joanne Calderwood said she would be prepared to step in should anything happen to a title fight between champ Valentina Shevchenko and Jessica Eye. The suggestion, Calderwood said in a chat with MMA Junkie, came from none other than UFC president Dana White. And it’s certainly not that crazy of an idea, considering Calderwood was already set to take on a fellow divisional contender in the same UFC 238 card in which the women’s flyweight title fight will take place. The small snag in the plan, though? The fact that Calderwood’s opponent, Katlyn Chookagian , says she got told the same thing.
