Losing streak hits three
Santos lost to Karol Rosa via split decision (28-29, 29-28, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It's a crushing result for Santos considering she easily won Round 1 and appeared to be in firm control most of Round 2. Yana had an overwhelming strength advantage, easily pinning Rosa to the cage whenever the two women engaged in the clinch, but she struggled mightily at distance and it only got worse as the fight progressed. There's zero question Rosa landed the more damaging blows and that appears to be what judges value these days. Set to turn 34 years of age this coming November and the loser of three fights in a row, the odds are against Santos earning another shot with the company.
