The fight was the last fight of Paige Van Zant's UFC contract, with no intentions of re-signing, so possibly her last UFC fight ever.
The Fight[]
The first round began. Ribas lands a body kick and a left and a knee to the body. Good hip throw by Ribas to side control. Looking for a scarfhold as Bisping notes. Paige is cut, eating short rights. Paige trying to cagewalk. Unsuccessfully. Paige keeps trying to get the hooks and take the back too with no success. Her head is trapped though. Left nostril of Ribas is trickling blood now, might be her blood everywhere. Scramble, Ribas going for an armbar. Paige stacking her and defending. Ribas going hard for it now, she might have this. Paige taps repeatedly and the ref stops it, they hug.
