Angela Hill lost another close fight and wasn’t happy with some taunts from Claudia Gadelha
UFC star Angela Hill got the short end of the stick in her clash against Michelle Waterson.
The 35-year-old was handed a loss via split decision despite dominating the strikes in three of the rounds.
Many reporters also backed Hill and claimed she won this fight, and it was the second clash in succession where she was robbed of a win.
Hill also posted a scorecard of the significant strikes in the five rounds. This was proof from the UFC too that Hill landed a lot of strikes, but it wasn’t enough for her to get the win.

The American was proud of her performance but was called out by a rival too. Claudia Gadelha had beaten Hill in a close contest too, and the American was upset over that call as well.
Gadelha joked that Hill would be crying up to 2035 after this loss. However, the American wasn’t taking this jibe lightly.
Hill vs Gadelha 2?
Hill made history on this event as she became the first black woman to headline a UFC show.
However, there wasn’t time to celebrate as she was handed a tough loss. Hill’s fighting spirit wasn’t hurt though as she posted a picture of Gadelha with the damage done in their fight.
The American also called out Gadelha for a rematch, and it will be interesting to see if this match is set up in the future.

Gadelha is on a two-fight win streak while Hill has lost her last two battles. However, both losses for Hill could have easily been wins too.
The 35-year-old didn’t seem to take a lot of damage in this clash and a rematch against Gadelha could be another main event.
However, Gadelha is ranked #6 in the division while Hill is ranked #13 presently, so setting them up could be a problem.
