Tracy Cortez’s Last Fight
Tracy Cortez faced Melissa Gatto in her last fight at UFC 274 on May 7, 2022. This fight marked her return to the octagon after a hiatus of over 1 year.
Cortez wasted no time showing her form from her last win in April 2021 against Justine Kish. She started with calf kicks and managed to take Gatto down. While on the ground, Gatto attempted an armbar, but Cortez defended well. They returned to their feet briefly, with Gatto landing low kicks before initiating a body lock takedown.
In the second round, Cortez landed a knee on Gatto's body, but Gatto responded with aggressive striking, including a Superman punch. She then executed a takedown, and although Cortez quickly got back up, Gatto took her back, trying to secure hooks and ground and pound. Gatto even attempted an armbar, but Cortez managed to escape. This round likely favored Gatto.
In the third and final round, Cortez set the tone by securing a takedown in open space, giving her room to dominate on the ground. They spent most of the round grappling, with Cortez gaining the upper hand. Ultimately, Cortez extended her winning streak to 10 fights after her year-long absence. Unfortunately, Cortez took yet another year-long hiatus after this bout and is now scheduled to fight Jasmine Jasudavicius at UFC Fight Night 227.
