UFC Fight Night: Dawson vs Green Prelim Results
JJ Aldrich defeats Montana De La Rosa by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27)
Former training partners JJ Aldrich and Montana De La Rosa opened up Saturday’s fight card, pairing off for a technical, competitive battle to get things started.
The fundamentally sharp Aldrich controlled the exchanges for the most part, using her quick hands and sound footwork to get in, land, and get out, frequently making De La Rosa miss or hesitate.
When De La Rosa would land, Aldrich was right there to respond in kind or stifle her advances, continuing to land the better blows throughout.
After 15 minutes of action, the judges were called upon to determine the victor, and all three saw it the same way, awarding Aldrich the unanimous decision win. That’s two wins in six weeks for the 31-year-old veteran, and a third consecutive loss for De La Rosa.
