SAO PAULO – Claudia Gadelha dominated Cortney Casey from bell to bell, but her victory was marred by a blatantly illegal kick that received not even a verbal warning from the fight’s referee. When the final scorecards were read, Gadelha’s (14-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) lead was such that a point deduction wouldn’t have changed the result. A unanimous 30-27 was the result, but Casey (6-4 MMA, 2-3 UFC) didn’t entirely get a fair shake. The women’s strawweight bout was part of the main card of today’s UFC Fight Night 100 event at Ibirapuera Gymnasium in Sao Paulo. It aired on FS1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.
