Kiwi fighter starts in style
Genah Fabian has made a dominant start to her second season in the Professional Fighters League (PFL) and a shot at the US$1 million prize. On the back of an impressive striking display and strong work in the clinch, the Kiwi mixed martial artist recorded a unanimous victory over American lightweight Laura Sanchez (1-1) in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Fabian (3-1), who trains out of Auckland gym City Kickboxing, almost doubled the output of her rival, landing 66 strikes to 34, with all three judges scoring the bout 30-27. Fabian is scheduled to make her second regular-season appearance on June 26.
