Brazilian rising star Bethe Correia kept her undefeated record intact with a well-deserved victory on Saturday night at “UFC 172: Jones vs. Teixeira” in Baltimore. Correia outstruck “TUF 18″ quarterfinalist Jessamyn Duke en route to a unanimous decision win in a bantamweight bout on the televised preliminary card. Leading up to Saturday’s fight, some questioned whether Correia (8-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) would be able to contend with Duke’s (3-1 MMA, 1-1 UFC) significant height and reach advantage in the striking exchanges. Correia proved her doubters wrong and she repeatedly scored with leg kicks and right hands throughout the three-round bout
