Two former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women’s bantamweight title challengers went toe-to-toe last night (Sat., Dec. 3, 2016) at TUF 24 Finale live on FOX Sports 1 from inside Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Nevada, as Sara McMann battled Alexis Davis. It was not a memorable performance for the returning mom.
After a back-and-forth first round, McMann was able to gain top control on Davis and proceeded to sink in an arm-triangle choke to earn the second-round submission win. The grappling sequence was especially impressive considering Davis is one of the best submission specialists in the division, holding a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, finishing 47 percent of her career victories by way of submission and never being submitted before tonight through 23 pro bouts.
