Bellator MMA closed out their 2020 events schedule on Thursday with Bellator 254: Macfarlane vs. Velasquez at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut.
The eight-bout fight card was headlined by a women’s flyweight title bout between champion Ilima-Lei Macfarlane and Juliana Velasquez. Both women entered the cage with undefeated records.
The bout went the distance. The title changed hands, and Macfarlane’s championship reign came to an end. Velasquez put in a dominating performance, kept her undefeated record intact and walked out with the women’s flyweight belt.
Macfarlane had difficulty getting inside Velasquez’ reach advantage. She was left with having to rush in with a flurry to close the distance. Velasquez landed her jab and kept Macfarlane on the outside.
