In a close affair where Carla Esparza may have sacrificed her elbow joints to get a win over Alexa Grasso after escaping a deep armbar, the ‘Cookie Monster’ edged out the local opponent at UFC Mexico via majority decision. On Twitter, professional fighters had diverging reactions about the result.
Surprisingly to me, Esparza is up 2 RDs! She’s leaning on that wrestling and landing some good GnP strikes as well. Grasso needs something big to get the W here, IMO #UFCMexico

Esparza just let her arm dislocate to escape then right away started hitting grasso with it.
