Stoliarenko came right out on the front foot from the opening seconds, looking to bring the pressure to McCann and control the fight right away. Stoliarenko did a decent job avoiding McCann's power and working her jab before scoring a takedown 90 seconds into the first round.
McCann looked to reverse and get on top, but Stoliarenko had her legs around McCann's arms and got the extension, forcing a tapout in less than two minutes and apparently breaking McCann's arm.
dark. Next. When is Conor McGregor's next fight?
