Alexa grasso, who was coming off a defeat before the UFC Seattle, held this Saturday (28), was not intimidated by the status of favorite of Maycee barberAgainst the American, the Mexican controlled the action from start to finish and showed efficiency by taking advantage of the right moment to finish the fight in a frenetic manner.
In the opening minutes, the fight was marked by caution, with both athletes working at mid-range and testing their strikes. However, Grasso quickly adjusted her pace and found openings in her opponent's defense. Still in the first round, the Mexican landed a precise cross that dismantled Barber, creating the perfect opportunity to end the fight.
Without hesitation, Grasso went to the ground and was clinical in applying a well-executed rear-naked choke, giving the American no chance. The submission confirmed the fighter's superiority, who knew how to capitalize on the best moment of the fight.
With this result, Grasso extends his record to 17 wins and five losses, reinforcing his consistency in the organization. Barber, on the other hand, now has 15 wins and three losses in his career, interrupting his winning streak.
Enjoying a good run in the division, the Mexican fighter is once again approaching the top of the flyweight category (up to 56,7 kg) and gaining momentum in the fight for another title opportunity, potentially facing her opponent again. Valentina Shevchenko soon.
