Nathan came out a different fighter in the second. He stopped chasing the takedown from distance and instead used a long jab to measure Emerson, then crashed into a body lock. Once he dragged her down, he moved to half guard and began a slow, crushing pressure campaign. Emerson fought off a kimura attempt and survived the round, but the momentum had clearly shifted.
