Utilizing a more wrestling-heavy approach than fans have been used to seeing, Shevchenko utterly dominated her opponent. Andrade couldn’t hang on the feet, but it was even more crushing when she began wrestling, and she secured multiple dominant takedowns. In the second round, she secured a mounted crucifix, and after a few elbows, Dan Miragliotta stepped in to stop the fight.
