After a hiatus since October 2024, Pacheco unleashed her frustrations on Stasiuk, rocking her with a combination before delivering a decisive overhead elbow for the finish. The Brazilian fighter, ranked among the top pound-for-pound competitors, showcased the striking prowess that earned her a 2023 PFL championship and a previous win over UFC bantamweight champion Kayla Harrison.
Pacheco's victory marks a bounce back from her loss to Cris Cyborg, which had ended her 10-fight win streak. The 31-year-old fighter, who parted ways with PFL last October, demonstrated no mercy as she followed up her elbow strike with several devastating punches against the Karate Combat wall. catcross.biz
