I'm curious before dropping down to a more natural 125 lbs did Valentina Shevchenko ever
win a fight by TKO/KO or submission or was that something that came when she finally found
a weight class that didn't involve giving up a bunch of strength to bigger fighters.

Didn't she submit Pena at bantam? I'm not sure of any others.

By arm bar.

I always love it when the ladies get a bonus.

The step over into the armbar finish was well done. Funny to hear the commentators mention Ronda was influential in getting her into the sport, she did look young.

Nice with all the finishing I was sure Hansen would be left out as a favorite on the undercard. Good fight for both Frey had a great 1st round excited to see her back and Hansen probably cashed more then her entire fight career.

Nice to see that there is a thirst for fights, and that they sold out.

Also, lol at this

Just watched Hansen-Frey. Good fight. Glad they received well-deserved bonuses.

 

[Mittens]

I also liked Frey/Hansen - both had their moments and rounds 1 and 3 were pretty darn entertaining. Excellent groundwork by Hansen and Frey had her moments on the feet, and while her TDD held up, even that was neat enough. But yah, cool finish and glad Hansen was chosen to get a (public) bonus - kinda tells that UFC is planning to promote her to the demographic who roots for blondes with Statue de la Liberté tattoo Not that it wasn't worthy, but kinda obvious choice promotionally if they wanted to go with that. Anyway...

Just Hansen. Poirier and Hooker got FotN.

Shino Van Hoose moving to Syndicate

Strange signing. 2-0, hasn’t fought mma since 2014, but fought under the custom rules of Seiza seven times in 2017, going 6-1 there.

[msm1981]

Actually I went back and checked come to find out 13 of the 19 wins that Valentina Shevchenko
have has come by KO/TKO/Submission with only 6 being by decision.

Hopefully Tabatha Ricci is more professional out of the box then what Mackenzie Dern was but
Ed Soares seems like a professional minded gym owner so I wouldn't expect bad behavior out
of Tabatha Ricci knowing that.

I know there’s gonna be some degenerates on here trying to get one of these Team DATE keychains

good move. i like to think of syndicate as the go-to gym for women who would benefit from more sparring/training with other female fighters.
