Viviane Araujo Goes The Distance But Loses Decision
4 years agoRunning into her toughest task to date, Viviane Araujo (10-3) was unable to score the much-needed victory over top-ranked contender Katlyn Chookagian on UFC 262's main card on Saturday. Araujo had her moments on the mat, but overall she could not go the distance with the veteran. If Araujo wanted the next title shot, this matchup was the one she really needed to impress in. Statistically, Araujo landed 89 significant strikes (129 total strikes) along with landing one of her three takedown tries. The 34-year-old will still continue to impress, and a title shot is never totally out of the picture if she can string together a few victories.
