"Lil Bulldog" is back.
Felice Herrig (11-6) returned to the Octagon after being out of action for over a year and submitted Kailin Curran (4-3) at UFC on FOX 20 earlier tonight (Sat. July 23, 2016). Herrig locked up a rear-naked choke in the opening round to earn the victory inside United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
The official time of the stoppage came at 1:59 of round one.
After a few early exchanges, Herrig, 31, caught the kick of Curran and landed her first takedown of the fight. The end would come only moments later. In a scramble, Herrig took the back of the Hawaiian and immediately hunted a rear-naked choke.
