Why Manon Fiorot will win

• Last Fight: (L) Valentina Shevchenko – U DEC
• Last 5: 4-1
• Finishes: 6 KO/TKO

Manon Fiorot makes her first return following an unsuccessful title challenge against Shevchenko, however the loss wasn’t all too bad and will function a learning moment for the hungry contender. Fiorot was beaten and bloodied during her last exchange, so she might be trying to take out some anger in hostile territory against the house country’s fighter. She’s still levels above the remaining of the division by way of striking, and he or she’ll be out to prove a degree as to why she deserves her rematch.

As displayed in her previous bout, Manon Fiorot is hard as nails, and it’s extremely tough to place her away on strikes alone. She’s typically very sound defensively and moves forward slowly but confidently as she dominates the striking range. She’ll have a major striking advantage over Jasudavicius here, and if she’s in a position to keep it on the feet, Fiorot should convincingly control all three rounds.

Still, the nice equalizer might be her opponents’ wrestling, to which Fiorot can have to work her 61% takedown defense rate. She hasn’t been perfect in staying off her back, but Fiorot typically does an excellent job of defending herself when in bad positions. While she may get taken down during this fight, expect her to pop up slightly quickly as a rule.

Why Jasmine Jasudavicius will win

• Last Fight: (W) Jessica Andrade – SUB (rear naked choke, R1)
• Last 5: 5-0
• Finishes: 2 KO/TKO, 4 SUB

Jasmine Jasudavicius has been on a tear through this division, and he or she’s in a position to fight in front of her home Canadian fans once more. Jasudavicius has been rising to the occasion steadily, quietly earning three submission victories and performance bonuses over her last five fights. The opposite two wins have been unanimous in nature, so she’s clearly found a rhythm where she will be able to repeatedly dominate her opponents.

While she’s been making incremental improvements in her striking, Jasudavicius can have to provide respect to the fast hands of Manon Fiorot. Her predominant focus might be tying up along the fence and looking for openings where she will be able to take the fight to the bottom. It is probably not a reasonably game plan by way of aesthetics, but Jasudavicius can have to take offense where she will be able to get it throughout this fight.

The house Canadian crowd should give you the option to will their very own fighter through a few of her takedown attempts and where she’s most comfortable in the course of the bout. From there, never sleep on her ability to drag submissions out of a hat as she always threatens her opponents on the bottom.

Final Manon Fiorot-Jasmine Jasudavicius prediction & pick

We must always have one other high-level bout on our hands as two of the division’s best face off with a possible title shot at stake. Manon Fiorot is seen as considered one of the division’s best strikers and was already primed in a title opportunity in her last fight. Jasudavicius is a dominant grappler, nonetheless, and is an enormous threat to submitting her opponent on the bottom.

The final result of this fight will hinge on whether Jasudavicius can find consistent takedowns throughout this one. If Fiorot keeps her standing, we are able to expect three rounds of her dominating on the feet. Nonetheless, the whole lot will change if Jasudavicius can put her opponent on her back.

For our final betting prediction, let’s roll with Jasmine Jasudavicius to earn the upset on this fight. We’re still unsure how Fiorot’s first loss will affect her, and the wave of momentum Jasudavicius is on has been undeniable. For the plus money, while fighting at home, we’ll roll with the underdog on this one.

Final Manon Fiorot-Jasmine Jasudavicius Prediction & Pick: Jasmine Jasudavicius (+190)
