It’s better to be safe than sorry…
Veteran Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Women’s Flyweight Priscila Cachoeira got back into the win column at UFC Vegas 104 last night (Sat., March 15, 2025) when she viciously knocked out fellow Brazilian Josiane Nunes with an uppercut from inside the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada (watch highlights).
UFC company officials confirmed to MMAmania.com that Nunes was transported to a local “Sin City” hospital after her knockout loss for a precautionary CT scan of her head and face. The results are unknown at this time.
It was a big night for Cachoeira for two reasons: “Zombie Girl” received a $50,000 ‘Performance of the Night’ bonus for her knockout and saved her job.
The 36-year-old Brazilian snapped a two-fight losing streak in which Jasmine Jasudavicius and Miranda Maverick each submitted her in the third round.
As for Nunes, she may be receiving a pink slip in the coming weeks, as she is now on a three-fight losing streak. “Josi” came into the promotion with a splash, knocking out Bea Malecki (watch highlights) in the first round and then winning two more fights in a row.
