Nora Cornolle snapped her two-fight skid with a grinding unanimous decision over Klaudia Syguła in front of her home fans.

The breakdown below was written before the fight.
The read
Cornolle's power and home-crowd boost make her a threat to end this early if her timing is sharp after the layoff, but Syguła's activity and well-rounded approach have been enough to beat two ranked-adjacent opponents in a row.
A cagey, competitive fight that could go either way on the scorecards if it doesn't end early.
The matchup
This is a rankings-implication fight between a returning ranked veteran and a surging two-fight win streak.
Cornolle's Muay Thai pedigree and home-crowd energy make her dangerous on the feet after months away from competition, while Syguła's well-rounded, grinding style has been enough to out-point two straight UFC opponents.
Ring rust versus momentum is the central question.
