WATCH: Paige VanZant makes history with TKO in Austin

Van Zant records third round knock-out in first ever fight

Two of the most popular female MMA fighters around Paige VanZant and Kailin Curran went toe-to-toe on Sunday morning in Austin in a tense and sometimes hard fought battle at strawweight. It almost went the distance but eventually the 20 year old proved too strong for Curran as she combined a judo throw with a flurry of punches to record a TKO on 2.54 in Round three. We think we'll be seeing plenty more of VanZant in 2015. See the video below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucfcJWgIHZM
