TUF 18, Episode 11 fight recap

Semifinal elimination fight #2 — Julianna Pena vs. Sarah Moras:

Round 1: Low kicks by Moras and Pena makes her pay with punches. Pena continues to press forward and is landing, so Moras clinches but gets taken down and has to work from guard. Pena postures up and ignores advice from Caraway to get out of the red zone. Pena plops back into guard and tries to muscle in some ground-and-pound with little success. Moras tries to create space and eats a pair of elbows. Pena pushes her into the fence and drops a big right hand to the face. Pena gets side control and Moras wall walks but goes nowhere. Round ends with Pena on top smothering. 10-9 Pena.

Round 2: Same as round one. Leg kicks by Moras get her punched in the face. This time it’s Pena who clinches and once again slams her to the floor. She’s in side control now and Moras briefly rolls out — only to get dumped right back down again. Pena on top but not doing a whole lot. Moras with an armbar attempt but it’s denied. Moras — bleeding like a stuck pig — rolls over and looks to escape and gets trapped in a guillotine. Game over.

Result: Pena def. Moras via submission (guillotine choke)
