An emotional Gabi celebrated her 5th MMA victory as she moved to 5-0.
This is a much-needed victory for the Gabi Garcia, who was last seen in December when she was set to face 53-year-old Shinobu Kandori, but the fight was canceled after Garcia missed weight by a whopping 28 pounds, tipping the scale at 237 lbs.
This win helps Garcia in rebuilding bridges with fans overseas, while also helping to bolster her in-ring credibility against a comparatively solid opponent.
