The fight began with Andrade setting the tempo and going right at Calderwood. Andrade had Calderwood against the cage looking for a takedown. A short time later, Andrade scored a takedown and controlled the native of Scotland.
Andrade was looking for submissions and when she couldn’t get one, she would ground and pound Calderwood.
Calderwood tried to get up, but she left her head too high and Andrade capitalized by locking in a guillotine choke. Andrade squeezed as hard as she could and Calderwood had no choice but to tap out.
That is back-to-back wins since Andrade moved down to 115 pounds.
