PHILADELPHIA – After putting on one of the best fights of the night at UFC on ESPN 2, Marina Rodriguez and Jessica Aguilar met up at the hospital and had a discussion.
Aguilar (20-8 MMA, 1-4 UFC), the former WSOF champion, accepted the strawweight bout with Rodriguez (12-0-1 MMA, 1-0-1 UFC) on just seven days’ notice and put up a valiant effort en route to a unanimous decision loss.
Both fighters left the octagon with damage, though. Aguilar was the one taking the majority of the punishment, but Rodriguez absorbed some blows, as well. Aguilar’s strikes took a toll on Rodriguez, so much so that she was forced to go to the hospital, where she crossed paths with her opponent.
