Here's the match video of Casey O'Neill vs Antonina Shevchenko from last night's UFC show in Las Vegas. This fight is at Flyweight. Casey is 23 years old. She was born in Scotland and she grew up in Australia. She now trains at Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas. She has looked great in her first couple of UFC fights. Antonina is the older sister of Valentina Shevchenko. She's nowhere near as good as her sister. At this point the UFC seems to keep her around to keep her sister company. Round one was close because Casey went for a takedown and wound up in bottom position. Later on Casey got a takedown followed by pounding. I thought Casey won the round 10-9. Casey was better in round two. After a takedown, she tried a couple of submissions. When that wasn't working, she pounded Antonina until the ref stopped the fight. I thought it could have been stopped sooner. This win should get Casey into the rankings. We'll see who she faces next. Enjoy the video!
