Two of the reasons I'm impressed with the upstart MMA promotion Bellator Fighting Championships are that it has put together some very good women's fights, and that it puts its best highlights on YouTube. Both of those facts are on display above, with a video of Stefanie Guimareas knocking out Yvonne Reis with a knee to the chin.
The 19-year-old Guimareas was appearing in only her second MMA fight, and she's actually a Braizlian jiu jitsu specialist, not a striker. But she showed off some good Muay Thai skills in using the clinch and the knee to defeat Reis, a former Golden Gloves boxing champion.
The Guimareas-Reis fight was part of Bellator's final event of its inaugural season. For more Bellator highlights, click the links below.
