LAS VEGAS – After notching the first submission win of her career, Angela Hill is as confident as ever, and believes she is ready for one more run for the UFC strawweight title. At UFC Fight Night 241 , Hill (17-13 MMA, 12-13 UFC) wrapped up Luana Pinheiro with a Performance of the Night-winning guillotine choke, forcing her opponent to tap in Round 2 . The self-dubbed “Grappler Ange” has arrived, and will likely enter the promotion’s top 10, which means big things opportunities are ahead. The finish of Pinheiro (11-3 MMA, 3-2 UFC) itself was a surprise for Hill, which speaks to her continued growth in the training room, and her ability to adapt to what occurs inside the octagon. “I didn’t think she was going to shoot on me, so it wasn’t even really in the gameplan,” Hill told reporters during a post-fight news conference
