Poliana Botelho (7-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) kept her record perfect in the UFC, earning a quick win over a previously undefeated Syuri Kondo (6-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC).
The women’s strawweight bout was part of the preliminary card of today’s UFC Fight Night 129 event at Movistar Arena in Santiago, Chile. It aired on FS2 following additional prelims on UFC Fight Pass and ahead of a main card on FS1.
The two women met quickly in the center, looking to trade, but it was Botelho who landed first. A big kick to the liver saw Kondo’s frozen in pain, and Botelho sensed the opportunity for a quick finish. With Kondo backing away and trying to cover, Botelho unleashed a flurry of punches. A right hand sent Kondo to the floor, and the ensuing strikes ended the fight in just 33 seconds.
