These two came to fight. Smith had had Daly REALLY close to finished JUST before the round ended. But when it started back up again, Daly had recovered some and landed some early shots, got a takedown (?!) and finished Smith on the ground. I was really hoping Smith would win this one. She needs a bit of fine-tuning and other work. I’m really hoping she gets it.
