Women’s flyweight champion Juliana Velasquez (11-0 MMA, 6-0 BMMA) and challenger Denise Kielholtz (6-2 MMA, 6-1 BMMA) both hit their marks in the initial allotted hour – as did the rest of the card with the exception of two preliminary card fighters, who needed an additional hour. ]]></description>
