I did think it was a fairly dull fight at the time. Mostly due to Gadelha holding and pressing and not doing much. I'm surprised when I see so many people say it was a great fight. It's actually listed as the #1 strawweight fight of all time on Tapology which just shows how dumb their lists turn out. #2 is Mizuki vs Grasso and #4 is Mizuki vs Karolina, so Mizuki is drawing excitement but then #3 is VanZant vs Curran... lol.
At the time I thought Gadelha would get the dec but was glad when she didn't because she did nothing offensively.
I think the rematch will be more interesting though due to it being 5 rounds coz Gadelha has sucky cardio (due to having Brazilian muscles) although she's a bit less inflated these days so we'll see. Gadelha looked much improved already in terms of wrestling and boxing in her fight vs Aguilar (and also gameplanning) too so maybe she can get something done this time.
The other thing which stands out about the first fight - much more than the punch after the bell (shit like that happens all the time, not a big deal IMO unless it's something extreme like Daley) - is the amount of eye gouging Joanna did, and how little it was acknowledged until recently (because everyone loved her until recently).
