I just re-watched the fight and not too sure how that was a split. Rodriguez had literally zero takedown defense. I think she literally stopped one that was pretty out of range but then Esparza took her down shortly after. Her striking is dangerous but against a wrestler she can't do anything. Her saving grace in that fight to have any success is Esparzas dumb ass decision to go for a leg at the end of rounds. Her corner even told her after the first not to do that again because she was winning the round clearly then she does it again in the second and the same thing happens. Waterson should just force the takedown for an easy win.
