Latest strawweight addition
Thainara defeated Rose Conceicao via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at Dana White's Tuesday Night Contender Series. After the show, she was one of five fighters to be officially awarded a UFC contract.
ANALYSIS
She didn't get the finish, but Thainara put on a formidable performance as a slight betting underdog. She dominated the significant striking total in all three rounds, in addition to securing a trio of takedowns (at a success rate of 100 percent) and 2:23 worth of control time. The 26-year-old Brazilian is now headed for the UFC's strawweight division.
