Dominating the opening round with strikes, as well as maintaining her distance with lateral movement, the Utrecht native briefly threatened with a Von Flue choke in the second round, as Peña held onto a guillotine of her own with de Randamie in side-control.
The veteran Netherlands striker displayed her grappling chaps as Peña looked to score a takedown in the third – jumping for a guillotine at the fence, scoring a technical submission win with referee Jason Herzog forced to separate the two.
