De Randamie, the No. 1 contender in the bantamweight division, earned her fifth consecutive victory. The Dutchwoman's last loss was to Amanda Nunes, the current bantamweight champion.
"I dropped her and she didn't know where she was. It was a nice clean shot and a good stoppage," De Randamie said after the fight.
Ladd, meanwhile, lost for the first time since beginning her professional career in mixed martial arts with eight straight wins.
