Angela Magana Blames Sexism For UFC 218 Loss in Twitter Rant
Angela Magana went off on Twitter alleging sexism played a part in her loss to Amanda Cooper at UFC 218. You can see her posts below, in which she claims that the ref stopped the fight early when a man would not have had the fight stopped against them so early.
Magana claims that she was still moving and aware at the time of the stoppage when Cooper was delivering heavy shots to her from top position. She noted that she wasn’t “taking anything from Amanda, in fact her dominance of me could have been far worst I just wanted that opportunity to let that transpire and have another go.”
You can see her posts below. Magana’s lost was her third in a row under the UFC banner.
I need to walk in the cage with a banana in my shorts and a crew cut then maybe the ref will let the fight go. Men can fucking tap out from strikes get hit and the ref wont stop it till 7 shots later after near death expierence #equalrightsinfights #letthegirlstakebeatingstoo

Amanda was fucking bashing me & overpowering me, I wasnt rocked still moving was completely aware I immediately sat back & bitched at ref. Heard my corner yell out I had less than 30 seconds. I was thugging it out hoping for a 3rd & have a chance back on my feet again. #ufc218

In no way by wanting another round am I taking anything from Amanda, in fact her dominance of me could have been far worst I just wanted that opportunity to let that transpire and have another go #ufc218
