Despite being in a cage fight just days ago, UFC strawweight Claudia Gadelha is in phenomenal condition.
On Wednesday, the UFC title contender posted a provocative photo on her Instagram account. Gadelha’s photo is a behind the scenes look at a recent photo shoot.
Last weekend, at UFC 212, Gadelha earned her most impressive victory in the UFC. It took Gadelha less than one round to submit fellow top contender Karolina Kowalkiewicz in the co-main event.
She submitted Gadelha with a rear-naked choke. This was Gadelha’s first submission win in the UFC. She started her career as a submission specialist. Gadelha won her first six fights all by submission.
Gadelha has been near perfect in her MMA career. Her only losses have come against UFC Women’s Strawweight Champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk.
Gadelha has 15 wins in her MMA career. She has notable victories against Valerie Letourneau, Ayaka Hamasaki, Jessica Aguilar, and Cortney Casey.
