After a hotly-contested first four rounds, Lee succumbed to Xiong’s body blows and finished via TKO in the fifth round. It was a miraculous comeback win for Xiong as she almost got submitted with an armbar in the previous round. Analyzing how the finish transpired, Hardy cited some interesting points.
Explaining how the body attacks led to the end of the fight, ‘The Outlaw’ said:
Hardy concluded with:
This is true. Once you get hit with a solid blow to the body, it can shut your entire anatomy down. Add this to the fact that Angela Lee is on the last few drops of her gas tank, and that first body shot was truly the end of the fight.
