By Michael Luciano
Now THAT is how you pick up your first UFC win. Priscila Cachoeira had lost all three of her UFC fights before she took on Shana Dobson in a prelim bout at UFC Auckland. With one strong uppercut to the face of Dobson, her opponent dropped to the mat and Cachoeira picked up her first win inside of 40 seconds.

Cachoeira immediately dropped to her knees and starting crying after finally notching one in the win column. That raw emotion is what makes this sport so great.
Priscila Cachoeira just absolutely starched Shana Dobson with an uppercut. Cachoeira was incredibly emotional after the KO victory. She dropped to her knees and started bawling. Cachoeira had lost all three of her UFC fights up until this point. #UFCAuckland

Always nice to see fighters pick up win No. 1. Hopefully this is the first of many for Cachoeira.
