Tyron Woodley: Aspen Ladd was ‘saved’ by Herb Dean at UFC Sacramento headliner

Aspen Ladd had to go through a grueling weight cut just to make the 135-pound limit for her UFC Sacramento headliner against Germaine de Randamie. Fight night became a tad bit worse for her after what looked like a controversial stoppage by referee Herb Dean that led to her first-round TKO loss.

Ladd was hit by a right hand that instantly dropped her to the canvas, followed up by a few more punches from de Randamie. Dean immediately stepped into stop the fight, despite Ladd looking like she was not at all taken out by the shots.
