Jaqueline Amorim delivered a major statement with a first-round submission victory over Loma Lookboonmee.
The strawweight bout ended at 4:04 of Round 1, with Amorim forcing the tap and adding another strong win to her growing résumé. It was a composed and effective performance from Amorim, who wasted little time showing why her grappling remains one of her biggest weapons.

Amorim Finds the Finish Early
Amorim entered the fight with a clear advantage in the submission department, and she made it count.
Rather than allowing the bout to become a long striking battle, she found the opportunity to bring the fight into her world. Once the grappling exchanges began, Amorim looked calm, technical, and fully aware of what she needed to do.
The finish came late in the opening round, but it still felt decisive. Amorim did not need multiple rounds to make her point. She created the opening, attacked the submission, and closed the show.
Loma Started With Activity, But Amorim Controlled the Danger
Loma Lookboonmee had moments of activity on the feet. The stats showed she landed more total strikes, going 10 of 16, while Amorim landed 5 of 15.
But MMA is not only about strike totals.
Amorim’s biggest threat was always the submission game, and that became the difference. Loma may have been able to touch Amorim with strikes early, but once Amorim found her grappling opportunity, the entire fight changed.
That is what makes submission specialists so dangerous. They do not always need to win every second of the fight. They only need one clean moment.
