UFC Fight Night 241: Angela Hill taps Luana Pinheiro for first submission, most wins in division history

Angela Hill He finally has one submission victory on his professional record, but that wasn’t all.

Hill (17-13 MMA, 12-13 UFC), a UFC strawweight veteran, put a nice feather in her cap at UFC FN 241 at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, while also securing the most wins in division history by defeating Luana Pinheiro at 4:12 of Round 2.

Hill performed well in Round 1 thanks to his well-known striking game, finishing the round in a dominant position on the mat. In the second round, Hill continued his aggressive offense and saw an opportunity to jump into a guillotine attempt, locking Pinheiro (11-3 MMA, 3-2UFC). Hill held his ground and eventually rolled into a mounted guillotine, forcing the tap.

Hill’s finish gave her the most wins in UFC strawweight history with 11. It’s now two in a row for “Overkill,” who came in on the heels of a unanimous decision win over Denise Gomes in November.

During her post-fight interview, Hill called for a BMF women’s title fight in a rematch with Jessica Andrade, to avenge a 2017 loss that snapped a four-fight winning streak.
