Felice “Lil Bulldog” Herrig has given Alexa Grasso her first MMA loss.
Herrig took the center of the cage early, peppering her opponent with lefts and rights. Grasso had counters of her own, but Felice seemed to be the more active fighter.

The fighters stayed on their feet for the most part, though Herrig landed a solid double leg takedown in the third. She wasn’t able to hold it, though, and the fighters went right back to trading punches.
Grasso turned up the heat at the end of the round, attacking with punches and kicks. It wasn’t enough to sway the fight in her favor, though, and Herrig took the win.
Lil Bulldog wasn’t done there, though. During her post-fight interview she not only paid respect to her deceased brother, but called out Paige VanZant and Michelle Waterson.
Winner by unanimous decision: Felice Herrig
