In the just-concluded UFC 300 match, Zhang Weili defeated Yan Xiaonan by unanimous decision and successfully defended her title. But there were several flips along the way, and it was arguably one of the greatest women's fights in UFC history.
In the first round, Zhang Weili took the lead with consecutive kicks, while Yan Xiaonan countered with punches and hit Zhang Weili after a leg catch. Subsequently, Yan Xiaonan knocked Zhang Weili down, but he was not able to suppress and strike for a long time. Three minutes into the game, Yan Xiaonan's punch punch hit Zhang Weili, and Zhang Weili got up immediately after falling to the ground.
Then Zhang Weili's leg method opened the way and then turned around and whipped Yan Xiaonan to pose a threat, and then threw Yan Xiaonan down, and formed a naked strand behind her back, at this time the naked choke was fully formed, but Yan Xiaonan couldn't hold on, and resisted until the end of the first round, she was also a little dizzy due to lack of oxygen when she got up, but she recovered quickly.
Shortly after the start of the second round, Zhang Weili landed another takedown, and the two kept switching positions on the ground, and then Zhang Weili got Yan Xiaonan to hammer the back, and the arm triangle choke almost reached the submission again, and Yan Xiaonan once again survived with a tenacious will, and successfully flipped the position and returned to the standing. Towards the end of the round, Yan Xiaonan also seized the opportunity to hit the punch.
In the third round, Yan Xiaonan was quicker in his boxing and knocked Zhang Weili down with a single punch, but Zhang Weili defended tightly on the ground and did not give Yan Xiaonan a chance to suppress on the ground, and the referee also allowed the two to return to their feet.
At this time, the physical fitness of both sides declined, and the pace of the game also slowed down, and the two of them exchanged punches and elbows at a great threat, and then Yan Xiaonan threw Zhang Weili down to occupy the upper position to suppress, but was soon swept up by Zhang Weili. Zhang Weili swept Yan Xiaonan in a middle sweep and fell successfully, but it did not form a long-term suppression.
In the first two rounds, Zhang Weili had an advantage because she was close to the finish and had a long time to press on the ground. Yan Xiaonan gained the advantage in the third round with one knockout and two takedowns, so each of the next rounds will determine the winner.
Less than a minute into the fourth round, Yan took advantage of Zhang's kicks to knock her down with another punch, and now has the absolute dominance on the feet, while Zhang Weili is a distant lead on the ground. Subsequently, the two entered the ground, Zhang Weili occupied the upper position to suppress, at this time Yan Xiaonan must get up as soon as possible, otherwise it is very likely to lose the advantage of knocking out the opponent once. With a minute left in the fourth round, Zhang Weili managed to control Yan Xiaonan with her back until the end of the round.
In the last round, Yan Xiaonan's eye was injured, and Zhang Weili entered the ground again to form a suppression, but was picked up by Yan Xiaonan. With three minutes left in the round, Yan Xiaonan was dropped again and taken on his back, and Zhang Weili kept Yan firmly in control from top position until the end of the bout.
In the end, Zhang Weili won by virtue of the point advantage. But with a few flips and near-finishes throughout the race, it was a great race.
