Yana Santos outworked Macy Chiasson at UFC 320, earning a big unanimous decision victory over the fifth-ranked bantamweight contender.
Chiasson walked into the bout as a 2-to-1 favorite, but it was Santos who appeared to have the advantage on the feet, bloodying the TUF 28 alum in the opening round. Santos continued to find success in the second, throwing over 150 total strikes in the first 10 minutes and landing a nasty front kick that popped Chiasson’s head back in the closing seconds of the stanza.
Still, Chiasson continued her relentless pursuit as Santos started to show signs of fatigue.
