UFC 232 results: Megan Anderson kick to the eye stops Cat Zingano

Cat Zingano tried to avoid getting caught by Megan Anderson’s long limbs. But as she tried to escape one exchange, Anderson showed how dangerous she is at distance.

A high kick from Anderson (9-3 MMA, 1-1 UFC) sliced into Zingano’s (10-4 MMA, 3-4 UFC) eye and ended their fight at the 1:01 mark of the opening round.

The women’s featherweight bout was part of the preliminary card of today’s UFC 232 event at The Forum in Inglewood, Calif. It aired on FS1 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead of a main card on pay-per-view.

Zingano winced immediately after taking the kick and immediately sought refuge at the fence. But because it was a legal blow, referee Marc Goddard could do little other than inform her to fight back. When she didn’t, Anderson’s follow-up punches brought a swift stoppage.

It was a much-needed turnaround for Anderson, who was in line for a shot at women’s featherweight champion Cris Cyborg after seizing the belt she relinquished in the all-female Invicta FC promotion. A lackluster debut against ex-bantamweight champ Holly Holm dashed her immediate hope to challenge for the belt.

Zingano also hoped to rebound making her first octagon appearance as a featherweight, which came after a 1-3 run 10 pounds lighter that included a blowout loss to then-champ Ronda Rousey.

Initially, Zingano played a smart game against Anderson, attacking the legs and getting out of range. Anderson missed on attempts to counter, and Zingano appeared to enjoy a speed advantage. But after her first approach, Zingano was caught unaware by Anderson’s long legs, and the fight quickly slipped away.
