PFL's biggest star keeps shining.

At PFL Africa on Saturday, Dakota Ditcheva kept rolling as she defeated Bellator alum Sumiko Inaba by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-24). The bout was the co-main event of the card in Cape Town, South Africa.

Ditcheva, 26, remains unbeaten in her career. She put on a striking clinic vs. Maui's Inaba (8-2), who hung tough but was unable to muster up much of an answer to Ditcheva's lengthy "eight-limbed" attack.

Knees and elbows were Ditcheva's friends as she pieced up Inaba for 15 minute, creating a perfect concoction of skill and violence. By the end of the fight, Inaba's face was a mess.

Immediately after the judges' decision, Ditcheva announced she'd re-signed with the PFL. She did not reveal any further details about the terms of her deal.
