UFC BJJ 7: Tackett vs Rocha · Apr 2, 2026
About this match
Adele Fornarino returned to the Meta APEX to compete in the UFC BJJ 7: Tackett vs Rocha women's flyweight matchup, her first appearance in the UFC BJJ Bowl. The last time she was seen at that venue, she lost a close decision to Ffion Davies at a UFC Fight Pass Invitational event. This time, she earned a first-round submission finish over Alexandria Enriquez.
The match went to the mat immediately, with both women working to establish the first offensive opening. Fornarino was comfortable off her back while Enriquez looked to apply pressure from on top. The action eventually settled into a leg entanglement, and a leg-lock exchange followed, with both competitors trading ankle locks as they tested each other's finishing ability.
It was Fornarino who closed it out, switching from the ankle lock to a kneebar to force the tap and secure the first-round submission. The entry she used for the kneebar was unorthodox, showing range beyond her usual straight ankle lock game.
