Alexa Grasso Earns The Win In Flyweight Debut
4 years agoAfter a move down from the strawweight division, Alexa Grasso looked solid in her flyweight debut against ranked South Korean Ji Yeon Kim. Grasso outstruck her opponent, landing a total of 123 strikes (88 significant strikes.) She only collected one takedown, but it came at a crucial time near the end of the bout. After defeating the No. 14-ranked flyweight, Grasso may be competing inside the division's top 10 her next time out. The bottom half of the top 10 will be interesting bouts in which Grasso has a big shot at winning and continuing to build on her new winning streak.
