One fight removed from a failed title bid, Claudia Gadelha showed she is still one of the top fighters in the strawweight division with a dominant decision win over Cortney Casey.
The women’s strawweight bout was part of the main card of today’s UFC Fight Night 100 event at Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo. It aired on FS1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.
The bout was marred somewhat by a blatantly illegal kick from Gadelha, but the referee didn’t see fit to issue a warning or point deduction. Despite the illegal blow, Gadelha (14-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) controlled Casey (6-4 MMA, 2-3 UFC) in every facet of the fight, dominating on the feet and ground en route to a 30-27 score on all three official scorecards.
