Joselyne Edwards puzzled by Norma Dumont's reaction to decision loss
Joselyne Edwards doesn't understand why Norma Dumont acted surprised at the scoring of their UFC Vegas 116 co-main event.
LAS VEGAS – Norma Dumont couldn't believe she was on the wrong end of the decision reading following her fight with Joselyne Edwards at UFC Fight Night 273. Her face was one of complete shock. Saturday in the UFC Fight Night 274 co-main event at Meta APEX, Edwards (18-6 MMA, 9-4 UFC) upset Dumont (13-3 MMA, 9-3 UFC) to win a unanimous decision that read 29-28, 29-28, and 30-27 in favor of the Panamanian.
Although Dumont appeared in disbelief, Edwards wasn't, along with many commenting online. "I don't even know why she reacted that way," Edwards said in Spanish speaking to MMA Junkie and other reporters at the UFC Fight Night 273 post-fight press conference. "I knew I had won.
She let me control her in the cage, and those points went in my favor. I did a good job, and she was running a lot. I did more damage than her.
I think I won my fight clearly. I was at ease, and I knew the decision was mine. I don't know why she reacted that way.
