UFC Vegas 123 video: OKTAGON double champ Lucia Szabova gets late TKO in debut
OKTAGON double champion Lucia Szabova bloodied her opponent for a stoppage win in Saturday's UFC Vegas 123 debut.
Lucia Szabova, the undefeated UFC women's flyweight champion, made her promotional debut at UFC Vegas 123, defeating Tainara Lisboa by TKO in the third round. The 1-0 UFC fighter, who boasts an impressive record of 13-0 MMA and 1-0 UFC, overwhelmed her opponent and finished her at the 3:20 mark of the third round. Lisbon's corner grew increasingly concerned about her condition as the fight wore on, and commentators Daniel Cormier and Laura Sanko questioned their handling of the situation following the stoppage.
Szabova, while demonstrating her skill in the ring, also shared her emotional motivation behind the victory, explaining that it was for her son, whom she had not seen since he was in Slovakia for a month of training.
