At #8 in the women's flyweight rankings, Wang Cong — "The Joker" to fight fans — is past the "prospect" stage. This is contender territory, and every fight from here is a title eliminator in disguise.
He fights at a pace most of the division can't hold — 6.82 strikes landed a minute, every minute. By round three, opponents are usually fighting his fight. Add the southpaw stance, and the puzzle gets harder still.
The form line is loud: 4 straight wins, the latest over Tracy Cortez (Decision - Unanimous). Momentum like that forces the division's hand.
