The match started off technical, with both women trading submission attempts and feeling each other out early. That didn’t last long once Neidhart found an opening and shifted the tone of the fight. After taking Baszler’s back, Nattie began unloading strikes, and the damage quickly showed as Baszler was busted open during the exchange.
With Baszler bleeding and the intensity rising, Neidhart tightened control by locking in a rear naked choke, putting Baszler in serious trouble. Baszler managed to power back to her feet, but instead of escaping cleanly, she created a wild moment by diving to the outside onto Neidhart’s entourage.
The action at ringside only made things more chaotic. During the scramble, Baszler was driven into the steel steps while still dealing with the earlier damage, leaving her struggling to recover as Neidhart made her way back into the ring.
Baszler couldn’t return in time, leading to a countout victory for Neidhart. Even after the bell, the fight wasn’t finished. Baszler eventually made it back into the ring, and the two kept throwing strikes until both entourages rushed in to break things up.
With blood already spilled and tensions still boiling after the bell, the finish didn’t feel like the end of the fight. Nattie Neidhart remains unbeaten at Bloodsport, but the way this one unfolded makes it clear there’s unfinished business between her and Shayna Baszler.
