Michelle Waterson-Gomez ‘gutted’ after loss to Amanda Lemos at UFC Long Island

Michelle Waterson-Gomez is disappointed after her loss to Amanda Lemos at UFC Long Island this past Saturday.

The ‘Karate Hottie’ fought for the first time since dealing with a potentially ‘career-ending’ injury that forced her out of fights with Amanda Ribas at UFC Vegas 52 and UFC 274, respectively. She hoped to return to form against Lemos, but Waterson-Gomez left the Octagon with a loss—after getting caught in a guillotine choke during the second round of their fight.

The loss to the Brazilian was an unfortunate outing, but Waterson-Gomez has vowed to continue on with her career.
