Jessica Andrade is officially back as a contender in the strawweight division. She successfully dropped back down to the division with a first-round submission win over Amanda Lemos in the main event of UFC Fight Night 205 from the Apex Facility in Las Vegas.
Lemos actually started with the early lead. She started off the fight with aggressive leg kicks and appeared poised to pick apart Andrade on the feet.
But Andrade's experience proved to be a key to the fight. She kept calm, closed the distance and grabbed the unorthodox submission. According to Michael Carroll of UFC Stats, the standing arm-triangle choke was the first of its kind in the UFC.
