Casey O’Neill showed how devastating she can be from top position against Antonina Shevchenko on Saturday at UFC Fight Night 193 . After facing some compromising positions in the first round, O’Neill (8-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) rallied in a big way in the second round of her women’s flyweight fight with Shevchenko (9-4 MMA, 3-4 UFC) at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The 23-year-old O’Neill stayed unbeaten in her young career by getting into full mount on Shevchenko and pounding away with strikes until the fight was mercifully stopped at the 4:47 mark of Round 2.
