Here's the match video of Cory McKenna vs Cheyanne Vlismas from last night's UFC show in Las Vegas. This fight was at Strawweight. The UFC looks at both fighters as prospects. But I don't think this fight did anything for either. Cory is from Wales. She trains at Team Alpha Male in Sacramento. Cheyanne trains at Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas. She's mostly a striker. Cory is probably a more complete fighter. But in round one they were just pawing at each other not doing much of anything. I would score a round like that 9-9 for doing nothing. But judges don't do that and they scored it 10-9 for Cheyanne for marginally better striking. Urijah Faber and Danny Castillo must have seen the same thing I saw because they told Cory to get her act together. She was much better in the other two rounds. So Cory won the fight 29-28. But I think the UFC was looking for one of these fighters to step up and neither of them did that. Very disappointing. Enjoy the video!
