Jessicka Havok vs Mia Yim

Victory is only by knockout. If you’re used to seeing the usually dominating Havok win matches with ease, that pattern will be broken with this hard fought match. Yim takes Havok down repeatedly, tying her up in the ropes, choking her, keeping her dizzied with a barrage of vicious kicks to the head and back. A tight early Sleeper has the larger lady gasping for air and a sharp snapkick to the head nearly takes all the fight out of her. Nearly. One mis-timed move gives Jessicka the opening and Mia pays for it dearly, suffering through grinding Sleepers, neck-snapping Full Nelsons and more knee punishment than you can, well, shake a leg at. In the final minutes, one lady maneuvers out of a Fireman’s Carry to clamp on a consciousness-sapping offensive that ends with her opponent flat on her back and out like a light.
