The fight started with both accepting the actions standing up. Charles, a jiu-jitsu specialist, applied good kicks to Jury's legs, although the fight had not developed in a more forceful way until then. However, Do Bronx took advantage of Jury's hesitation during a kick and took the fight to the ground, falling on top.

The American tried to react with an armbar, but Do Bronx easily escaped and went to the back. Jury got up, but the Brazilian took the opportunity to land a guillotine choke, which made his rival tap out shortly afterwards.

Right after the fight, Do Bronx sent a message to the new UFC featherweight champion, Conor McGregor, which comes from a recent victory over José Aldo. “Conor, don’t be happy with something that isn’t yours. I’m here to take the title to Brazil”, she said.
