First Brazilian to climb the circular cage in Bellator 283, Vanessa Porto was unsuccessful at the event held this Friday (22), in Tacoma (USA). The São Paulo native had a balanced confrontation with Veta Arteaga, but ended up making a mistake, trying to get into a takedown and neglecting her neck. Aware of the Tupiniquim's slip-up, the North American took advantage, used a guillotine choke and forced her opponent to give up in the second round.

With the result, Porto loses the opportunity to reach the top 5 in flyweight (up to 56,7kg). Current number seven in the ranking, the Brazilian also failed to achieve her second consecutive victory in the organization.

The fight

The Brazilian had the distance advantage and controlled the actions. After an attempted high kick, Porto ended up being blocked and taken down by his rival. The São Paulo native managed to get up and move away from her opponent. Halfway through the stage, the Brazilian risked a fall, but Arteaga defended herself well. Near the final minute, the combatants started to exchange franks and sought the knockout. The assault ended with the combatants facing each other in the center of the circular cage.

The second round started off busy, with the fighters exchanging punches and kicks. With just over a minute of fighting, Porto launched long-range strikes and tried to intimidate his opponent. Veta bet on low kicks and punches to the São Paulo native's torso. Just like in the first stage, Vanessa launched a high kick, but was blocked and taken down by her opponent. The North American allowed the Tupiniquim to stay on her feet and the fight was fought again in the center of the circular cage. Near the final minute, Porto risked a takedown, but ended up being caught with a guillotine choke. Unable to get out of position, Vanessa gave up.
