LAS VEGAS – Hungarian striker Melinda Fabian (4-3-2 MMA, 0-0-1 UFC) nearly scored a highlight-reel finish of veteran DeAnna Bennett (8-3-1 MMA, 0-0-1 UFC) but ultimately settled for a disappointing majority draw. The women’s flyweight bout was part of the main card of today’s The Ultimate Fighter 26 Finale event at Park Theater in Las Vegas. It aired on FS1 following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass. Fabian looked to strike early, landing a right hand and a high kick in an early exchange, and Bennett immediately looked to get the fight to the floor. Fabian defended well against the cage, eventually spinning to the outside and driving an elbow into her opponent’s face. Bennett was relentless with her grinding attack, but Fabian’s defense eventually earned her a restart from referee John McCarthy.
