Here's the fight video of Casey O'Neill vs Luana Santos from last night's UFC show in Perth, Australia. This fight is at Flyweight. Casey is 26 years old from Queensland, Australia. She trains at Fight Ready in Arizona. Her UFC record is 4-2 and she's on a two fight losing streak. When her original opponent Tereza Bleda pulled out, Luana was brought in. She's 24 years old from Sao Paulo, Brazil. She trains at 011 Fight Team. She's 3-0 in the UFC But Casey is a big step up in competition level. I think Luana is better than Tereza but not that much better. And the UFC wants Casey to win at home in Australia. So the fight went as expected. Casey had a big reach advantage and used that to keep Luana away. I thought Casey won easily. But I would have liked to see a finish. I scored the fight 30-27 for Casey. Two of the three judges scored it the same and the third scored it 30-26. There was not a 10-8 round in this fight. I need to see Casey beat a ranked fighter. She hasn't done that yet. Enjoy the video!
