Stop us if you’ve heard this one before: Gabi Garcia scored a win over a smaller-sized opponent. Garcia moved to 5-0 today when the Brazilian jiu-jitsu specialist choked out Veronika Futina (0-1) in an open-weight bout at ROAD FC 47. The event took place at Cadillac Arena in Beijing, where Garcia entered the cage with a massive size advantage. At Friday’s official weigh-ins, Garcia weighed 106.7 kilograms (235 pounds); Futina, who had a contentious build-up with Garcia ahead of the fight, was 86.6 kilograms (191 pounds). The physical advantages were obvious today once they entered the ring.
