Summary
23-year-old Bella Mir said her first MMA defeat will not define her after Alex Apodaca handed her a unanimous-decision loss on Dana White’s Contender Series.
60-1 favorite Mir entered Tuesday’s Las Vegas bout at 4-0, but the three-round result was billed as the biggest upset in Contender Series history.
Mir thanked her team, family, fans and Apodaca in an Instagram post, saying she has overcome past setbacks and expects to return “bigger and better.”
Alex Apodaca, who beat Frank Mir’s daughter at the Meta Apex, said she would celebrate the win and still report to her full-time accounting job the next morning.
