Before Germaine de Randamie fights Holly Holm at UFC 208, watch her brutally dispatch Anna Elmose with a vicious knee.
Germaine de Randamie will be fighting Holly Holm for the UFC’s inaugural women’s featherweight title at UFC 208 on February 11th. Before that happens, how about watching “The Iron Lady” in her most recent bout in May 2016?
De Randamie fought the now-retired Anna Elmose on the main card of UFC Rotterdam, with the Dutch crowd fully supporting their home fighter. The boisterous fans erupted in excitement when de Randamie finished Elmose with a vicious knee to the body, which capped off an excellent Muay Thai clinic. You can watch the full video at the top of the page.
Here’s Tim Burke’s play-by-play of the fight:
Round 1 – Elmose closed the distance and worked over De Randamie in the clinch against the cage. The crowd is very loud for Germaine here. She gor GDR to her knees but no further. Thai clinch from GDR and a couple of big knees. Elmose ends up on her back, but De Randamie lets her up. GDR firing off the jab. Big right, and an uppercut. Huge knees in the Thai clinch against the cage. Monster body shot and Elmose is down! One more shot and it’s over. The crowd is losing it.
