Felice Herrig ended Alexa Grasso's undefeated reign after three rounds in Houston, Texas, where she scored a unanimous decision win. On Twitter, pro fighters did not think too much of the UFC Houston co-main event.
I think this fight will be competitive for 2mins then Grasso should take over. #UFCHOUSTON

Grasso taking a lil to warm up. Harrig pushing the pace in the first round @ufc

Grasso seems so much more timid tonight than in her debut. #UFCHOUSTON

This doesn't look like the grasso that I've been looking at specially in her debut. Felice landing that right continuously

I think the multi-coloured braids are confusing Grasso. #UFCHOUSTON

You can't deny experience. Herring is finally using that to her advantage. #UFCHouston

Looks like a little girl fighting a women. Grasso took to long to open up. She's got the skills was it a mental thing or was felice on .

Note to lighter weights: Don't wait until RD3 to gain momentum. Most don't have the power to KO and subs are hard to come by. #UFCHouston

Judges actually got it right. Kind of shocked. #UFCHOUSTON
