UFC 265 video: Jessica Penne taps out Karolina Kowalkiewicz with nasty armbar submission

After sitting out for nearly four years, Jessica Penne has now won two fights in a row including an impressive submission finish on the UFC 265 preliminary card.

Following a hard-fought split decision victory in her last outing, Penne looked better than ever on Saturday night after engaging in a ground battle with fellow former title contender Karolina Kowalkiewicz. Once the fight hit the floor, Penne was constantly looking for submissions, which eventually set up the armbar.

Despite a valiant effort from Kowalkiewicz to break free, Penne eventually extended the arm and left the Polish strawweight with no other option than to tap out or risk serious injury.
