Round one begins and Suarez starts off quickly. She presses forward but Grasso greets her with a low kick. Suarez continues to press and lands a kick tot he body. She shoots in and presses Grasso against the cage. Alexa with some elbows from the position. Suarez eats those shots and secures a takedown. Grasso quickly scrambles back up to her feet but Suarez still has her pressed against the cage. Another takedown for Tatiana. She immediately moves to side control. Grasso rolls for an armbar but it is not there. Suarez moves to Grasso’s back and locks in a rear-naked choke. This is deep. Grasso is fighting hard but she is in all sorts of trouble. Tatiana Suarez with another hard squeeze and that is it! This one is all over as Grasso is forced to tapout.
