Inconsistent ways continue
Reed lost to Denise Gomes via KO (punches) at 0:30 of Round 2 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Reed did a nice job in a unanimous decision win over Jessica Penne in her most recent bout in October, but she was up against it here as a +400 underdog, largest on the entire card. Reed has displayed durability issues in the past and that's a major issue against a power puncher like Gomes. She ate some massive blows in Round 1 before an early Round 2 onslaught closed the show. The definition of roster depth and one of the most inconsistent fighters in the company, Reed has alternated losses and wins in her first nine UFC bouts.

No-shows Vegas loss
Reed lost to Lupita Godinez via submission (rear-naked choke) at 3:38 of Round 2 at Noche UFC on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Reed displayed plenty of toughness in not tapping to a pair of the deepest armbars you will ever come across in Round 1, but her inability to stay off of her back ultimately led to the stoppage in Round 2. The fact Reed was unable to generate any offense of her own didn't help matters, either. Elise has proven to be a decent kickboxer who can hold her own in a back-and-forth striking battle, but there's a hole the size of the Atlantic Ocean in her grappling game and Godinez took full advantage. The very definition of roster depth, Reed has alternated losses and wins in her first seven fights with the company.
