Another weight miss, fight canceled
Carolina will not fight Melissa Mullins at UFC London on Saturday, according to UFC.com.
ANALYSIS
Carolina, with an extensive history of missing weight before fights, has missed again, this time by eight pounds. With how much weight Carolina missed, it is unsurprising that the bantamweight's fight was scrapped.

Can't defend takedown in loss
Carolina lost to Michelle Montague via unanimous decision (26-29, 25-30, 26-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Perth, Australia.
ANALYSIS
Carolina gave up five takedowns totaling 10:43 worth of control time and was docked a point for an illegal upkick in Round 2, so she had zero chance of winning a decision. That's the bad news. The good news is that she busted Montague open with a huge shot from the bottom early on and nearly scored a knockdown after connecting with a few huge blows early in Round 3. It ended up being nowhere near enough. Carolina entered having won three in a row, but all came against lower-level competition. Expect the 32-year-old to hover around the .500 mark moving forward.
