Talita Alencar Chokes Out Ariane Carnelossi Late at UFC Vegas 110
The third-round finish strengthens her push for a second UFC contract that would help keep her in the United States.
Overview
- Alencar won by rear-naked choke at 4:36 of round three after securing back control in the final minutes.
- Despite visible fatigue, she leaned on superior grappling to close the women’s strawweight bout.
- This was the last fight on her introductory UFC deal, which she has said is central to her visa status, and no new contract has been announced.
- Carnelossi returned from roughly 17 months out, with her previous win coming by disqualification against Piera Rodriguez.
- A three-time IBJJF world champion, Alencar transitioned to MMA in 2021 and entered the matchup off an April victory over Vanessa Demopoulos.
