Over the past decade, Bellator has had crowned champions in three female divisions with a total of four fighters winning the belts.
Currently, just two of those divisions are active.
Cris Cyborg added Bellator gold to her UFC, Strikeforce and Invicta FC titles earlier this year, while Ilima-Lei Macfarlane is the only flyweight champion.
Zoila Gurgel held the strawweight title in 2010 for over two years, but the belt has been inactive since she left for Invicta FC.
