Ariane Lipski just defeated Luana Carolina in a very brutal encounter at UFC Fight Island 2. It was not bloodshed brutal, but a fierce technical one. Just 88 seconds into the match, Ariane pulled off a deadly kneebar, to which Luana had no answers.
The UFC Fight Night, which had the main event of Deiveson Figueiredo vs. Joseph Benavidez 2, had a sweet surprise from the women’s Flyweight bout. This is Lipski’s second victory in UFC, and it came in a fashion she was least expecting.
She said, “I really wanted to win the fight by KO, but I was confident that if the fight went to the ground, I can submit her in the first round,” in the post-fight interview.

Ariane Lipski had to wait really long
The Queen of Violence had a rough year because her last promised fights kept getting postponed due to the pandemic. On this, she said, “I prayed a lot to god to give me opportunity to show.” She was then finally called to Fight Island to fight the Dread.
Ariane looked extremely confident and well prepared before her fight, and that just showed in her skills on the ground. She is trained in jiu-jitsu and has an amazing technical grab. Carolina slipped on the ground and gave an opening that allowed Ariane to pull a fight-ending kneebar.
