Bella Mir, daughter of former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir, now has two professional MMA wins on her record – all before age 18.
After winning a decision in her debut in October, Mir (2-0) competed in her sophomore fight on Friday at iKON 4 MMA in San Carlos, Sonora, Mexico. She didn’t need the judges this time, because the result was a quick submission win.
Alma Cespedes (0-3) offered little resistance to Mir in the women’s featherweight bout, getting caught in a rear-naked choke and put out cold at the 1:53 mark of Round 1.

The performance by Mir served as a great joy to her father. Frank holds the UFC record for most first-round submission wins, and he was pleased to see his daughter follow in his footsteps (via Instagram):
