Gillian Robertson stood out from the start of her Ultimate Fighting Championship journey.
Operating out of American Top Team at the time, the Canadian grappler excelled in her Octagon debut and put away Emily Whitmire with a first-round armbar as part of “The Ultimate Fighter 26” Finale undercard on Dec. 1, 2017 at Park Theater in Las Vegas. Whitmire conceded defeat 2:12 into Round 1.
Robertson executed a takedown inside the first minute, scrambled to the Syndicate MMA rep’s back, secured hooks and started to hunt the choke.
