Sydney based Brazilian MMA star Faine Mesquita has scored her second win under the ONE Championship banner this past weekend.
The 36-year-old needed little more than two minutes to choke Japan’s Yuka Okutomi unconscious at ONE Friday Fights 71 on July 19.
The women’s strawweight MMA contest opened the show at the historic Lumpinee Stadium in Bangkok, Thailand.
Mesquita wasted no time closing the distance on Okutomi, bravely looking to impose her grappling game on the judo specialist.
The Family Fight Team representative then spun to the back from a standing position and jumped the rear-naked choke. Before long, she slid the choke under her foe’s chin as the pair fell back to the mat.
Okutomi stubbornly refused to tap, and the referee was forced to call a halt to the action as she went to sleep at the 2:15 mark of the opening frame.
With the win, Mesquita improves to 3-0 as a professional. He second win on the ONE Friday Fights proving ground adds to the former IMMAF world champion’s unanimous decision win over Kyrgyz phenom Baktygul Kurmanbekova.
