It was tactical in the first round, fought on even terms. In the second, Reiss came out pushing the pace and using her size advantage. As the fight played out, Camara was really starting to connect with counter shots. Reis was doing well, but Camara was slowly taking over and during the sixth she landed numerous big punches on Reis.

In the seventh, Reis really picked up the pace and made it a competitive rumble, before Camara seemed to really hurt her at the end of the round. Reis did well in the eight, before Camara came back with her counters in the ninth. In the tenth and final round, Camara was trading away with Reis - which led her to suffer a bad cut above her left eye and the entire fight changed at that point, with Reis rocking her and doing a lot of damage.
