GINA MAZANY VS SHANNA YOUNG LOWDOWN
It is only a matter of time before Gina Mazany (7-5) gets cut again. She showed a lot of courage stepping up to fight Julia Avila (2020) on short notice, but she got knocked out in 22 seconds. She returned five months later to take on Rachael Ostovich (2020) to pull off her best win with a TKO. However, she then met Priscilla Cachoeira last May to get TKO’d herself and slump to 2-5 in the UFC.
She takes on Shanna Young (7-4) who is still without a win in the UFC. After failing her audition on the Contender Series getting submitted by Sarah Alpar (2019), she picked up a decision against Maiju Suotama (2019) which led to hear opportunity for a debut as a late replacement. However, Chiasson (2020) welcomed her to the UFC outpointing her and then Stephanie Egger (2021) piled on more damage with a TKO.
GINA MAZANY VS SHANNA YOUNG PREDICTION
These ladies will not be threatening the rankings anytime soon. Young is a decent striker, but her grappling is a significant whole in her game which Mazany can expose. Mazany has better experience, but we have not seen much evolvement in her game, in particular her striking.
If Young can defend the takedown, she will look great and cruise the rounds as the more accomplished striker, but we cannot see her staying on her feet. We expect Mazany to seal the takedowns and control time to convince the judges.
