Saturday night at Invicta FC 21, rising Australian prospect Megan Anderson battered and bloodied Charmaine Tweet picking up the round two TKO win.

Anderson (8-2-0) is one of the most popular fighters in the 145lb featherweight division. Fans believe she is the next best after Cris Cyborg. But is she really?

In September 2015, Cindy Dandois (8-2-0) dominated Megan Anderson, eventually picking up the round two submission via Triangle Choke. Dandois competes at bantamweight and featherweight, she has made it clear she is willing to fight in both and has been campaigning for a chance at Cris Cyborg for a long time. She has faced a very high level of competition in her MMA career including Tonya Evinger, Yana Kunitskaya and Sheila Gaff. She’s undefeated in the featherweight division, with huge victories over (#2) Marloes Coenen, (#9) Daria Ibragimova and of course the number four,

Megan Anderson. Dandois was previously ranked at number two in the 145lb featherweight rankings (just behind Cris Cyborg) after her impressive victories over top ranked talent, however she has since been snubbed by the top organisations who promote the division.

Dandois is a woman who is always willing and ready to fight anyone, and is constantly being overlooked by organisations and the media. Her accomplishments and victories speak for itself, it’s only a matter of time before the MMA world takes notice of the 32-year-old and give her the opportunities she is more than deserving of.

Who do you feel deserves to fight the winner of Holm VS de Randamie UFC 145lb featherweight belt? Megan Anderson or Cindy Dandois?
