ASHLEY YODER VS MIRANDA GRANGER LOWDOWN
Ashley Yoder (7-6) is 2-5 in the UFC which is more of a marker of how competitive the strawweight division is rather than her talent. That said, she is unlikely to ever break the top 10 with her only wins coming against Amanda Cooper and Syuri Kondo. After those back-to-back wins she has suffered back-to-back losses – a split decision a year ago against Randa Markos and a unanimous decision against Livia Renata Souza which came back in August.
Miranda Granger (7-1) got her UFC career up and running last year arriving to the octagon with an unbeaten record. She extended it on her debut by earning a unanimous decision over fellow debutant Hannah Goldy, but she is coming off the first loss of her career. She took on Amanda Lemos in December last year and received a taste of her own medicine getting submitted in the first round.
ASHLEY YODER VS MIRANDA GRANGER PREDICTION
Granger’s preparations for her loss to Lemos went badly and she has been out since after suffering blood clots in both lungs. Her fight with Nadia Kassem also got cancelled back in August but now she is ready and raring to go. We expect her to give a much better account of herself against Yoder, opening up with a consistent output and prepared to take the fight to the ground.
Yoder has better experience sharing the cage with better fighters and continues to evolve. She is also an excellent grappler and confident on the feet and we expect her to just about sway the judges. Every one of her UFC fights have gone to the bell and this could easily be a split decision.
Prediction: Yoder via Decision
