Drops decision in UFC debut
Bannon lost to Bruna Brasil via unanimous decision (28-29, 28-29, 27-30) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in London.
ANALYSIS
Making her UFC debut in just her sixth professional fight, Bannon rebounded a bit in Round 3, but the damage was already done. She lost the first frame on the feet and spent a good portion of the second round on the mat, ensuring she had no chance of winning a decision. Bannon has solid technical striking skills, but it's absolutely volume-over-power, and the rest of her game is a work in progress -- understandable given her inexperience. Set to turn 30 years of age in late-October, Bannon will be learning on the job for as long as her UFC run lasts.
