Despite being dropped in the first round by Brooke, VanZant was able to battle back to a split draw. Brooke left the event with her title still around her waist.

Each fighter earned a 48-46 decision while the third scored it 47-47.

In the co-main event, former NFL superstar Le’Veon Bell topped Tristan Hamm via unanimous decision.
