It took Weili Zhang less than a minute to make Ultimate Fighting Championship history.
Zhang became the first Chinese champion to compete in the Las Vegas-based promotion, as she blitzed Jessica Andrade with a barrage of punches, knees and elbows for a stoppage 42 seconds into the first round of the UFC Fight Night 157 headliner on Saturday in Shenzhen, China. In claiming strawweight gold, Zhang turned the tables on an overly aggressive Andrade, who had defeated her previous two opponents via brutal knockout.
