Wrestling game leads to win
Robertson defeated Luana Pinheiro via unanimous decision (29-27, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Robertson fights to her strengths as well as any female on the UFC roster. She's not the most talented, but she knows what works and she sticks to it. In this and every case, it was 17 takedown attempts, five of which landed. That resulted in 8:13 worth of control time and a clear cut unanimous decision victory. Gillian's striking isn't great and she's going to struggle to generate offense if those takedowns aren't landing, but she has one elite skill to fall back upon in the event of trouble. The Canadian is 5-1 in her past six bouts dating back to September 2022 and is quickly climbing the rankings at 115 pounds.

Will face Pinheiro
Robertson will face Luana Pinheiro in a strawweight bout at a UFC event on Nov. 9, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
Robertson will look to make it three straight victories in the UFC, as she's won her past two fights and most recently defeated Michelle Waterson-Gomez via unanimous decision. She's significantly more experienced in the promotion than her opponent Pinheiro, who is 3-2-0 and has dropped her past two fights.

Improves to 4-1 in past five fights
Robertson defeated Michelle Waterson-Gomez via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-26) at UFC 303 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
It was as dominant a 15-minute showing from Robertson as you will ever see. She spent 12:34 of the bout controlling her opponent, much of it from mount. When all was said and done, Robertson had a 122-41 edge in total strikes landed. The toughness of Waterson-Gomez was the lone reason Gillian didn't earn the stoppage here. Still just 29 years of age, Robertson has improved tremendously since moving to Florida full-time to work with the team at the Goat Shed. She's 4-1 in her past five fights and most definitely trending in the right direction.

Will face Waterson-Gomez
Robertson will face Michelle Waterson-Gomez in a strawweight fight at UFC 203 on June 1, according to MMA reporter David Van Auken.
ANALYSIS
Robertson is vying for the second win of the current calendar year after topping Polyana Viana via TKO (punches) at UFC 297 in January. The Canadian has gone 3-1 in her last four fights, and since she will need to start to defeat better competition to make any sort of legitimate run at 115 pounds, Waterson-Gomez represents a good assignment for her chances of progressing in the ranks of the company.
