Results
The defense took the night off as Priscilla Cachoira won a slugfest at UFC Vegas 49 with Ji Yeon Kim in an electrifying flyweight fight.
Kachoira was able to get the job done thanks to her tremendous power which supported Kim several times during the fight and then closed the fight with a series of bad elbows that opened up several cuts in the South Korean’s face. While it was a close fight, Kachoira did enough to secure the victory and all three judges turned the fight 29-28 in their favor.
During all three rounds, the flyweights were more than happy to stand up and trade with Kachoira’s wild shots, while Kim was a bit more technical with her combinations. While it wasn’t the most tactical game plan, Kachoira was certainly throwing with power behind every punch and Kim began to be a little careful to fire in multiple exchanges.
Recognizing that her activity was declining a bit, Kim became more active as the second round went on as she began to increase her production, while attempting to keep Kachoira on her backfoot more often. Kim begins to find a home for a slick jab of the left hand and then a stern right jab behind her, causing some swelling on Kachoira’s face.
Highlights
Islam Makhachev streams his unbeaten streak live on ESPN from inside UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada at UFC Vegas 49 earlier tonight (Saturday, February 26, 2022), when the lightweight contender experienced a first-round TKO Bobby Green demolished. (punches).
Green did well in the opening round to keep Makhachev away and even broke the fence during a tie-up. However, once Makhachev went for his double leg he was able to put the green on the canvas and go to work. Eventually, Makhachev will regain the full mount and force Greene to overturn with punches. Makhachev kept up the pressure as “King” tried to break free and referee Herb Deb stepped in for stoppage.
Makhachev, who hasn’t lost since 2015, is hoping that this win over Green will eventually give him his shot at the UFC lightweight title. But with the return of Conor McGregor on the horizon, Michael Chandler trying to get back in another title fight, and a plethora of other moving parts in the 155-pound division, it’s unknown whether this victory was actually Makhchev’s title shot. will result in.
