As the fight progressed to the second round, Michelle was able to take Herrig down and put her in that position for most of the time. Herring did try to fought back and was almost transitioning to an arm bar but the time ran out. It was clear at this point that Michelle was on the lead so Herrig had to turn the tide around and she did with a beautiful hip toss as she reversed the take down. But Michelle fought from the ground and landed some vicious elbows as Herrig was unable to do much from the top position. A clean victory for Michelle who declared “I want to be the first UFC champ that’s a Mom.

But in the final round, Lewis delivered the BIG KABOSHHH landed right on the button as Drago dropped his hands low and was attempting a knee.

From there on it was a downfall for OSP who struggled to keep up the pace with Reyes. In the final round, OSP looked gassed out and took some heavy shots. His marginal error was capitalized by Reyes who ducked and pivoted to a clean straight left that dropped him on the mat right before the final bell rang.

He tool him down in every round and was on the top position for more than 5 mins as he landed vicious punches & elbows.
